Yep, Oilers only have two really good forwards, better trade one of them. That you Kypreos?

No to trading Draisaitl. I shudder to think of our forwards without him.

 

[Index]

Trade anyone except McDavid and Draisaitl

 

[Linkens Mastery]

As a Blues fan, I'm just gonna say no ty.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Just hold onto Draisaitl.

 

[Addison Rae]

You’re not getting Seth Jones

 

[TheNumber4]

No from Oilers. Draisaitl continues to prove he can carry a 2nd line on his way to PPG production. And has already shown to be a HUGE contributor in the playoffs. Young. Signed Long Term. 4 point night tonight.

 

[Viqsi]

If you want Seth Jones and you expect us to add, you're offering us the wrong center.

Atrocious idea for both sides.

 

[wannabebluesplayer]

Yeah, I think that's a definite pass from St. Louis.

 

[McJesusSaves97]

No thanks to both. There are other ways to "fix" our problems. He is a big part of the answer moving forward...

 

[TFHockey]

These Draisaitl threads have to stop. He has a commanding game and the next thing you know two or three trade proposals pop up asking for every good player in the league. McDavid and Draisaitl aren't going anywhere. These are the two guys the team is building around.

 

[JohnnyJacket13]

Yeah...no......

 

[Captain Mountain]

I don't think anyone does any of these trades.

Typical Viqsi... I lol'd and then decided not to take the thread offside.

Bad idea to trade Draisaitl. We'll be fine once we can increase the number of B to B+ defenseman we have which are far easier to acquire/develop than a Draisaitl. We don't need an A+ #1 if we can improve our depth to the point that Sekera & Russel are our third pairing... we're one solid vet D, (even if a #3PMD) away from that.

Same for this post.

"Two Draisaitl Trade Ideas"

You misspelled "terrible".

 

[The Senators Guy]

So you are saying the Blues are going to trade an amazing prospect who leads the OHL in points with less games played than the average? Yeah okay. Not to mention Draisaitl is a great player and he's having an off year.

I don't think I need to explain the Columbus trade idea.

 

[bucks_oil]

Same for this post.

Really?

You could actually respond to my post as it was on topic rather than making a trollolol reference to how Jones is a starting point for McDavid (who was not the subject of the OP in the first place). It's all here in case you've forgotten:

Draisaitl is having an off year?

How's this for a thought experiment? LD for the #1oa(supposedly a sure thing #1D).

EDM gets some cap relief/cash for a while, and a leader on the blue line for years to come.
Other team gets a sure thing #1C.

Who wins that trade, or is it a win/win?

 

[ManofSteel55]

Everyone saying no. No. No. No.

He's on pace for 78 points (vs 77 last year), playing less with McD. I'm not poking at you... I've heard this from the mainstream media and I'm not sure what basis supports it.

Draisaitl is having an off year?

He's not. At all.

This season long narrative has been one of the strangest things about the NHL all year long.

 

[The Senators Guy]

Yeah but I mean Jordan Kyrou? Damn it's pretty even but I think Colton Parayko just does it for me. IMO the Blues are not paying enough and it would blow my mind if they traded Kyrou. The reason I said Drai was having an off year is he should be having a much better year than last year. Not just 1 pt better. But I mean Edmonton just sucks this year. They'll be back to contenders next year especially if they get a good pick. It makes no sense to do any of these trades since Kyrou is gonna be ready next year and he's an elite player.

'Much better than last year' would make him the best player in the entire world.

The problem here is your unrealistic expectations.
