Man i miss david perron, love that guy.

Bad trade. At the time he was the only Oiler forward that could cycle the puck with any success like a real NHL forward should. Tenacious.
Trade: Perron = Rob Klinkhammer and Griffin Reinhart

Not totally accurate! It was actually Perron for Klinkhammer and a 1st round pick (who became Mat Barzal). If you look at it that way and consider we weren't going to be contenders that year anyhow, that's actually a pretty decent trade.
It's the next deal that kills you.
Worth noting - two different GMs there too. What might have been remembered as possibly the best of MacTavish's many, many trades becomes instead remembered as one of Chiarelli's worst.

Yeah, but it was NYI who got Barzal.. we got GR.
Coulda, shoulda, woulda, have been an awesome trade if we got Barzal, but .. Chiarelli.
BTW, MacT on Sportsnet is pretty awesome.. I think he'll wind up getting a GM job out of that gig.
McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!!
Tic-Tac-Tao!
Keep on Rockin' in the Free World
P. Chiarelli math.. T. Hall = A. Larsson, Yak= bag o'pucks (OK he got one right...) K. Russell = $4.1 M+NMC, G. Reinhart= M. Barzal + A. Beauvillier, J. Eberle = R. Spooner,
