Since 71 decided to play less on the periphery and more in front of the net he has been a real difference maker. At this point he doesn't seem to be able to drive his own line effectively but with 29/71 his speed replaces 97's speed quite well. And that forces the opposition to defense two lines instead of really just one line.

Funny what you can get when you don't piss away all your draft picks.

Ryan McLeod was a 2018 draft pick. The Oilers were awful that year, finished 10th last in the league and missed the playoffs as all Chiarelli's mistakes piled up.
I am completely on board with not selling the farm when you don't have a chance at winning - and finishing well back of the playoff cut line meant there was never any reason to think that the McLeod or Bouchard picks would have been dealt that year.
That of course doesn't mean that it isn't worth trading them when you DO have a good shot at winning, because sometimes you need another piece to get over the top - especially when all the other contenders are loading up for a deep run.
