Proposal: Oilers Trades ... (CGY; ARI; MTL; MIN)

[Reinhart]

I doubt Calgary would do that deal. Calgary retains on Tanev, plus gives up a 4th round pick, plus has to take back Ceci, who has an additional year at a cap hit of 3.25, and a real dollar hit at 3.5? That's pretty awful. It would be bearable (not good, but bearable) if Ceci expired this season.

Flames apparently have been offered a 2nd + B prospect by more than one team, and I think if they wait, they can do better than this offer.

I think all 3 trades are too lopsided in Edmonton's favour.

Oilers are going to want cap space. They need to move money out to bring anybody in. They only 6 deep on Blueline also so they going to need to add there for playoffs.

Habs sitting there with 10 million caproom. Wonder what Oilers pay to dump Ceci?

That offer feels downright insulting to Arizona

That's the worst one of the bunch but the others aren't good either haha

Being sent to the AHL to work on your game doesn’t mean a player is going to be a career minor leaguer and Arber won’t be a career minor leaguer. If his upside was that of a career AHL player, no teams would have interest in him and from reports, teams are looking to trade for him

I was referring to the 2 pieces from Edm as career minor leaguers. Have seen nothing from each lately to suggest they will make it as regular NHLers.

Gotcha. I misunderstood you, sorry about that

Arizona takes salary cap dumps not actual salary dumps. That a definite no
If Flames could get a first for Tanev he would have been traded already. They could retain on Ceci and flip him for a pick so that one is close to fair except for of course they are dealing him to Edmonton so not enough to deal with the “devil”
Oilers no interest in Maroon especially after getting Perry.

First 3 trade proposals are laughably bad and lopsided for Edmonton

Don't think Flames take on Ceci's salary this year and next, retain on Tanev, and give Edmonton a 4th for a 1st.

Could be wrong, but that's my guess.

I'd rather just do a 1st for Tanev and move Ceci in a separate deal.

Retaining on Tanev AND taking back a cap dump in Ceci is easily worth a 1st on its own

Not a single flaming f*** chance.

This would be the price you pay to get rid of Campbell alone. We're definitely not adding our #1G who has been a great goalie in the NHL in general with us, and we're certainly not adding McBain who is going to likely become Crouse or a better version of Crouse because he can play center.

We also wouldn't want Broberg because he's just another version of the ~8D we have right now. We need a shutdown RHD more than anything, or at the very least someone who is big and willing to stand in the crease and clear guys out. Broberg isn't that. He's big but doesn't use his size and he's certainly not a shutdown D. He also isn't even clearly that much better than Soderstrom, who we don't even have space for on our roster.

If we traded Ingram we'd be looking at something similar to the Kuemper deal.

There's no shot we trade McBain.

Awful deal.

Tanev pulling a 1st isnt out of the question. There's still 2 weeks to the deadline. Plenty of time for a bidding war

Agreed.
