I am struggling to come up with a stance if I like this deal or not.

Pros:
- Savoie is a very good prospect
- He is younger than McLeod and cost controlled on ELC
- Cap savings
- The return for Ryan McLeod is very good. Jackson got great value for his asset.
- Higher long term ceiling than McLeod for the Oilers. Could help keep the team competitive on the next 97/29 contracts.

Cons:
- For a team that needs to win now, McLeod is a really useful cheap player right now. Savoie is unlikely to make an impact in the immediate term.
- An already old opening night roster just lost a 24 year old.
- Is anybody else in the bottom 6 close to McLeod analytically? High zone exit rate, xGF% was consistently strong. Played a part in the amazing playoff PK. I know he was seen as a perimeter player but he did a lot well that went unnoticed.

The value on the deal is really good but we need to win a division, and then a cup now. When you look at McLeod’s actual production it looks like a fantastic deal but I really don’t know.
