How much is Edmonton willing to pay for an "exceptional passer"? He put on a good show for the Edmonton front office on Sunday.
Barrie + for Draisaitl?
RNH+ for Barrie?

RNH+ for Barrie?
I would suspect Barrie will be moved once Makar and Timmons are NHL ready. Another 2 RHD who are puck movers. Likely will spell the end of Barries time in Colorado.Oh boy never heard this one before
Barrie is pretty great offensively but last season and so far this year...woof his defense. Don’t think he’s the guy the oilers should be targeting. And definitely not for Drai unless the + is rather substantial.
Barrie has taken a big step defensively this year. It shows in his +/- this year.Oh boy never heard this one before

No way Barrie gets traded for both of them combined let alone one. I think fans on both sides agree RNH for Barrie is a good foundation for a trade.I don't think trading him this season is a good idea, however at the draft maybe something around Barrie for Yamamoto or Poolparty?
I think Edmonton is a better team with Barrie than with RNH. A puck moving offensive D that can QB a PP will have bigger impact than another top 6 forward.RNH for Barrie will never happen because we have zero offensive depth.
Draisaitl for Barrie will straight up never happen.
As others have said, internal options are coming. Frankly if Bouchard stayed he’d have been no worse than our fourth best defenceman, he was playing really well. McLellan just hates those damned kids.

Boy that plus we would've to add for Draisaitl. I don't think it's worth discussing for the Oilers since they would ask something around Rantanen or OTT 1st and our 1st which I'm sure EDM refuses since they would take too much risk there. They would be in the same spot as we are right now looking for a #2C while only having Mcdavid carrying this team.How much is Edmonton willing to pay for an "exceptional passer"?

Barrie is secondary scoring though. Last year he paced for 69 points and this year He’s on pace for 68. He’s also a western Canadian guy, a puckmoving RHD that Edmonton badly badly needs, on a good contract, and Edmonton has shown interest in the past.Don’t think these teams are good trading partners honestly, both of them don’t have secondary scoring
Edmonton doesn’t have the forward depth to afford to trade Nuge, is the issueBarrie is secondary scoring though. Last year he paced for 69 points and this year He’s on pace for 68. He’s also a western Canadian guy, a puckmoving RHD that Edmonton badly badly needs, on a good contract, and Edmonton has shown interest in the past.
For the Avs they also need Barrie’s secondary scoring but with the emergence of Girard and with Makar putting video game numbers up in college it might get to a point where there’s not enough pp time to go around and Barrie’s the one who is going to command a big UFA contract in two years. I’m not one of the Avs fans that wants Barrie out at all costs but I do see the merit in eventually trading him for that 2C, RNH would be the absolute minimum kind of guy I’d go after though, as Barrie brings a lot of value himself.
Hows about we take out Barrie and RNH and work with something around Puljujarvi and Jost. Jost comes home to Edmonton and Pulju could learn a thing or two from his fellow Finn Rantanen.No way Barrie gets traded for both of them combined let alone one.

Something like:
Puljujarvi + RNH for Jost + Barrie?

There’s one of you lot that always tries to convince me that Barrie, Kerfoot, and futures is a good deal for Draisaitl... hasn’t worked yet.
Why would it matter where the points are coming from? They produce almost equally over a very large sample size.Edmonton doesn’t have the forward depth to afford to trade Nuge, is the issue
We have Bouchard and Bear coming to be our offensive RHD'S. We do however have no offensive depth. No way in hell Drai gets moved period. RNH will only be moved if we can add to him for an upgrade with term. Ie Nuge + for Panarin with an extension.
That's @cgf. He has fantasies about Draisaitl. Push him hard for MacKinnon in return and he might break. Or his firstborn, if you're looking to pick up a kid.
