So pretty much McDavid or Eichel for Wheeler? I'm gunna guess EDM passes

Are you high? Awful trades for Edm.

If schenn is in you top pairing for defence you know your team is going to suck. This team would never be able to get the puck out of its own end. Just bad overall trades and the don't even get any better.

How do yous figure that?
Yakupov has been nothing but a HUGE Disappointment for the oilers, petry doesn't want to sign with the oilers, and bringing in the schenn brothers adds defensive and offensive skill plus toughness, they both are not afraid to get physical,
Then by adding gryba you get a tough defencemen, someone on the back end who will actually drop his gloves not like aulie getting his butt kicked everytime.
And oilers don't need Mcdavid, they already have enough high end skill better off trading him for someone more experienced, wheeler is a big body with speed and skill who can also play the physical game. I can tell right away Mcdavid is another Kessel, he only skates one way and is a cry baby. there's a reason why mcdavid never seen any ice in the world juniors in the last 5 mins cause he can't play defence. that's the last thing the oilers need.
All i'm doing is getting rid of the disappointments.

So please explain how these trade ruin edmontons future?

If you think your top pairing d with schenn and klefbom will win you games you need to watch more hockey. Schenn has never lived up to his potential. he has shown he is capable to play in the nhl as a bottom 3 guy but not even close to the top two and unless klefbom progresses huge going into next year he's not a top two dman either. sure toughness is great but it won't win you hockey games when you are getting burned by guys that are more skilled.

Replying to the post above about mcdavid not playing the last 5 min of the game he did play in the mast 5 min by the way. and why would you put mcdavid in when u have better defensive players? What top offensive prospects are ever trusted with playing the last minute to save a lead that's where your defensive forwards come in. stupid comment think before you post, mcdavid isn't known for his defensive prowess, neither was crosby and look what happened. and no he is no slackoff like kessel, he hustles and he works hard
