Is that Mike Reilly or Morgan Rielly?

I mean, that's an instant rebuild if the other guys' team is barren. It'd be hard to say no to that from his perspective. From yours, it is all a question of if you feel you can afford it. From your roster, it looks like you can and there aren't really obvious candidates to put in there. Main question is if you offer 3 skaters and the pick or 4. Maybe start with 3 skaters and then add a fourth to put the icing on the cake and potentially seal the deal.
If I’m the other guy I wouldn’t want scheifle, I’d want something like Point, Eichel and guentzel. You are getting one of the best if not the best players in the NHL. Eichel is probably not in Buffalo for long and even with his injury I’d still prefer him over scheifle. But in your case I’d definitely do it. Guentzel and Point hurt to give up but it’s McDavid. Plus you get Mantha who still has decent upside. Good luck.
Call me old one more time.

That's the thing, everyone presumes that Eichel will be on fire when he gets to his next stop, but that neck thing is a little scary to me, not to mention the normal big contract team change bugaboos a la Bobrovsky. It would be good to see if your opponent places a premium on him.
Who are the extra guys you'd be keeping after losing those others in the trade? If they're decent then I'd do it. It's a bit of an overpay, but you don't get many chances to land McDavid.

I think this is a fair offer. As others have already pointed out, the other guy may not agree. I'd put it on the table asap and see what happens. The good news is, you have an impressive list of assets you can throw at this. If the other guy accepts you've done very well indeed. If he counters, well, we'd have to see what that looks like. You can overpay for anyone including McDavid, acquiring a player like that but blowing up a damn good team to do so is just not where you want to go. Start the trade process and go from there.
