They’d tell you to GFY with that offer though. - Iggysbff
Hence why I said I don't think it gets it done but that I'm fine with that. Giving up the little depth we have isn't the answer to fixing what ails this team. |

That's a tough one. Klefbom, Nuge and 2019 1st for Karlsson and Pageau might be as high as I'd go but that would all but require us to buyout Russell and find a suitor for Lucic. Maybe Draisaitl, Benning and our 2019 1st. I don't think either get it done but I also don't think Karlsson is the path to take as of now. - MaximumBone
Rumor is they want Bobby Ryan's lisp gone in the same deal. If we could somehow convince Lucic to waive his NMC I could see us being interested. But on their end they'd insist on one of Nurse/Klefbom, one of Yamo/Puj and at least a 1st. Would something like:
Karlsson + Ryan for Klefbom + Yamo + Lucic + 2019 1st interest us enough? |

Nope. Love Karlsson, but I’m not cool with gutting our already gutted depth at wing to bring him here, especially since he’s due for a new contract shortly. |

Still a no go for me. His new contract will make the big three cost over 30 million, then add Ryan and Nuge at another 13.25mil and that's 5 players taking up over half our cap. There'll be next to no depth beyond them and we'd still have to clear out Russel and maybe even Sekera l, as well. |

Why trade for Karlsson when you can get him in free agency. Guy already said he is holding out for the biggest contract he can get. To me he is set on testing free agency. |

It's costly for sure. But the thought of having someone of Karlssons ability setting up Mcdavid is so enticing. It would be like Housley to Selanne in the 90s. |

If I were the owner of the Oilers, I'd acquire only players who could make convincing pirates. Then I'd make them all dress up as pirates instead of wearing the Oilers uniform. |

Don't know why you guys keep trying 2019 first. If it's not our 2018 there is no one trading with us.
This would look like Klefbom, Nuge, 2018 1st, 2019 1st for extended Karlsson and Ryan.
It would be awful for us. |

Not sure what the analytics would show, but it would certainly (frank) with the minds of the opposing team. |

Pittsburgh Pirates? I think most of the current Oilers might be better baseball players than hockey players anyways. |

Enticing as it may be the cap doesn't make it feasible to ice THAT imbalanced of a roster. Better off building depth of young talent through the draft a savvy buy low acquisitions. |

Don't know why you seem to miss the point that we're leaving it out for the very reason that it's pretty much a non-starter with where out cap situation is. We NEED that cheap ELC on our roster to fix this team. |

Sens would have to eat like half of Bobby Ryan's cap hit for the Oilers to even be able to consider this an option. The other thing is I don't see Ottawa wanting Lucic so Chia would have to get another deal in place to dump his contract. In the end we just don't have the assets to pull off both trades because to dump Lucic we would have to give up Yamamoto or our first which doesn't leave much to entice Ottawa with. Nuge and Klefbom? |

And to add on if I am the sens I'm not moving Karlsson unless Nurse is coming back the other way. |

I know WHY you're leaving it out. Just pointing out that for the other side including the 2019 instead of 2018 is also a non starter. |

Agreed. I don't know why people seem to think we can fleece anybody in a deal. It's like we forget Chia is the one on the phone representing Edmonton. |
