There are only a handful of superstar talents in the league. They traded one for a replacement-level defender.At least Hall returned a player. This one is one of the worst ever.
Trading picks #16 and #33 for Griffin Reinhart
You really think trading Strome was a worse move than trading Hall?When we traded Strome to New York for a bum.
Strome was very rarely on the ice for goals against. His defense was as good as his offense was bad.
I doubt either one of those players would have turned into what they are now if the Oilers had drafted them. Oilers have drafted poorly and they have developed their prospects just as poorly.Could’ve had Kyle Connor or Thomas Chabot, both of whom would’ve fit well with the Oilers.
Barzal and Aho vs Reinhart lol
Barzal and Aho with McDavid Hall and Drai could be a contending forward group. DaaaaaaaaaamCaptain hindsight... it would have been Eriksson Ek/Svechnikov and Carlo
Blame them for Barzal but not for Aho.

Very true... but in a historical draft even if they had drafted poorly they would have had two very good players most likely. Potential two superstars for a player who was already a bust.There are only a handful of superstar talents in the league. They traded one for a replacement-level defender.
Sometimes what you got back isn't as important as what left.
Agreed. It gives me headachesCanucks traded Debrincat and McCann for Gudbranson
Canucks drafted Tryamkin over Point
Debrincat and Point with Petterson, Boeser and Horvat could be a contending forward group.
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam
As the Oilers GM or just in general?
