trading Gagner for a 6th AND retaining salary (which they can't do anyways) to Arizona would be disastrous...we'd still need a winger to replace him and overpay in the UFA market
not sure how this doesn't benefit the Oilers

You no longer have that 2C center to play behind RNH. What will happen is the Oilers brass will push LD into the lineup too early to make up for that that 2C loss.
Rushing players into the lineup before they are ready is what the Oilers do best. Surely you can't be happy about that.
