    Default Thoughts on this potential deal?

    We have heard the Jets are open to moving Laine and I heard rumours Edm is open to moving RNH?

    would this work 1 for 1?

    RNH can take the 2C slot and have a 2nd line of Ehlers-RNH-Roslovic

    then You can have Laine flanking McDavid or Draisaitl ?

    Edm would need to add more, check ages and RNH UFA in a year.

    I don't see a 1 for 1. Personally I think Edm would have to add something.

    Ya, EDM would probably have to add something here. EDM should be focusing on their defense though.

    It's pretty close, but there'd need to more pieces, and both teams need D.

    Both teams would say no this deal.

    The Oilers are not going to move their "best" two way forward for another offense only winger. The Jets aren't going to move Laine for 1 year of RNH.

    First off, not sure where you "heard rumors" that Edmonton is open to trading RNH. The rumor I've heard is they are already working on a long term extension for him.

    Secondly, both players need new deals in a year. The only difference is RNH is a UFA where as Laine is restricted. The biggest fear is how much they want. I am one to believe firstly that RNH is more open to a team-friendly, long term deal, where as Laine is more about me me me. I truly believe Ken Holland would be more worried about what Laine wants vs what RNH wants in regards to cap hit.

    Thirdly, centers ALWAYS have more value than wingers so while Laine is younger, his perceived positional value is decreased compared to RNH's value down the middle. There's a reason why high end centers are hard to acquire. They are expensive.;

    Would Edmonton move RNH for Laine straight up? Hard to say. I would be surprised though. I think they value RNH on the left side (not even playing center) as much as they would Laine playing the right side. We as fantasy GMs like to think we understand evaluation of players but in reality, we probably dont have a clue.

    In the end, I dont think Edmonton would do this deal for a couple reasons. Edmonton needs help on the LW side more than they do the RW side. Nexts, loyalty to RNH, and I also dont think either team wants to trade star power within the division. Stranger things have happened none the less.

    The Jets and the Oilers haven't been in the same division since 1992/1993.

    I completely agree with you. Neither team would even entertain the thoughts of the deal.
