I don't think everyone sees him how you do. There's equally as great a problem with people overrating other teams' pieces as there is with people over valuing our own.
I was brainstorming that those two could be part of the deal, but in thinking further on it, not that they would get it done. But I don't think someone of the significance of a Gaudreau would have to be added. That's ridiculously over valuing what OEL is.

OEL is a first pairing d-man, easily.
There are very few teams he would be playing on the 2nd pairing.
You're really undervaluing him.
