Well you can look at it two ways.. the Oilers replacement cost for Nurse just went up.. unless you TRADE for an undervalued (by his GM) D-man on a term contract that will do as good, or hopefully better than Nurse.. or .. Nure's trade VALUE just went up trade assets back.. After the dust settles Oil may in the end just wind up keeping him and see if Babcock can re-shape his game.

Byram currently the highest paid D in the league

For just being a tag along for the Buffalo team heater for 2/3 of a year. Bro cashed in big time.

Chicago breaking the d market again like they did with Seth jones.
