Rumor: Oilers prepared to move the 10th pick for a quality defenceman

Lucic in his prime
Keep him.

I pictured a sleezy car salesman when i was reading that hot garbage

 

[Sota Popinski]

So you propose we lose a trade just for the sake of changing it up?

Coyle outproduced Pulj on one leg. You want to bring linemates into this? McDavid was one of Pulj's most common linemates, along with Lucic. Coyle's most common linemates were Cullen and Ennis.

Yes, that's what I said. 'Let's lose a trade for the sake of changing it up'. Direct quote right there. I want to get rid of our good players for worse players. There is no way Puljujarvi could have a better season than Coyle next year. If not for injuries and bad linemates, Coyle would have scored 80 points. If Puljujarvi was not attached to McDavid at the hip, he wouldn't have scored in the double digits.

as a Wild fan I wouldn't be opposed to something like this:

EDM: Brodin + 5th
MIN: 10th OA + Puljujarvi

OR

EDM: Spurgeon
MIN: 10th OA + Puljujarvi

You certainly proposed a trade where Minnesota gets shelled in the value department.

The difference between Spurgeon and Brodin isn’t just a 5th round pick. Minnesota adds in these scenarios. Not sure what exactly but it ain’t Coyle.

Well good news for Oilers fans. It either works out or it's the straw that breaks managements back

Minnesota doesn't add anything else other than what I suggested. Spurgeon is a top pairing RHD and Brodin is a Top 4 LHD. Puljujarvi is unproven and the 10th OA is an unknown.

You would think so......

We will find out if/when Spurgeon, Coyle, Poolparty, and the 10th pick are dealt.

I agree from the Wild's side, but Puljujarvi's upside and cap hit make him a pretty hard piece for the Oilers to part with. They need defense, but they also need cheap wingers.

Hopefully it’s with other teams if those are the only pieces.

Top 4 LHD and top pairing RHD have way different values.

The point I'm making is that you have to give something to get something and when you're getting a Top Pairing RHD like Spurgeon then be prepared to give up quite a bit. Both the 10th OA and Puljujarvi are unknowns at best where Spurgeon and even Brodin have proven their worth.

Agreed, that's around what it should take to get Spurgeon (I'm a little less sold on the price for Brodin). I can just see why the Oilers would either look for something more modest (Faulk?) or the homerun (Parayko?).

 

[coldhands]

Tanev + 37th for 10oa and a 3rd/4th.

 

[Kranix]

Are you being serious? The Oilers will need young guys on ELCs in the next few years as they will be up against the cap crunch.

I'm saying get creative with it. Figure it out, you know?

 

[LetsGoBLUES91]

Trade it for Parayko, Thomas and pick 29 since Parayko is apparently Oleksiak according to Pens fans.

LOl are you sure we shouldnt add more. LOL

 

[LamorielloAndSon]

He better aim higher than when he went for Reinhart with 16th+33rd.

Mayfield for 10th

No need to bring that in here. Dont let one troll tarnish a whole fanbase

 

[oobga]

oh god...what is Chia gonna do...

 

[CauZuki]

Pacioretty to NSH.
Ellis to EDM
MTL gets Oilers pick+?

I think Edmonton values Pulju too high for that. They still see him (rightly so) as equal to or greater than a #4 overall pick. Spurgeon is great, but he doesn't pull two top-ten picks on his own (at this stage of his career). Brodin is kinda meh for us, doesn't fill a need for a PMD.

Reasonable efforts though, but it would have to depend on Edmonton thinking Pulju is busting (they don't) and if they did... why would you want him?

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Mayfield for 10th

Oh hey fun we’re still on ‘offering junk for 10’

 

[ChaoticOrange]

first deal yes
second deal hell no

That’s a 5th round pick, not 5th overall.

No to both and pretty easily too.
