IMO the Edmonton Oilers must be exhaustive in their efforts to improve scoring depth up front and should be prepared to move their 2019 #1 if neccessary to acquire a legit top 6 FWD...with term...

So... basically, the Oilers have used their projection piece to tell the world that their 1st is in play.
|
The way this season is going that 1st could easily be a top 5 pick. If they trade it for anyone older than 23 it's a mistake. This team isnt one or two pieces away. They need to be looking at 3 years from now, at a minimum, as their window.
|
That's a full reset if that's the case. With the top end that this team has, if it had competent management, they could be a contender quicker. Would need to work to clean up the cap management issues, but you can always sell problems or fake career-ending ailments...
|
I don't think any management group is turning this team around in less than 3 years now. There is nothing left to trade. There is no cap space to do anything with. Chia added Spooner and Manning to screw over whoever his replacement is next year (intentional?).
There are no reliable puck movers on this team except for Klef, that's it. Need 2 more fully hitting their stride in the NHL at least. Maybe some are here in development, but they are still 2-3 years away from being guys that can do a fully season at a high level. Got no wingers too obviously. Might not have any goalie this summer either.
Just too many moves needed, too much cap increases needed and too much asset value that needs to be built back up via the draft. Gonna take years. And the longer we wait, the more damage the OBC and Chia can do to make it take longer.
