I'm thinking what happened when Bruins asked for Nurse and picks instead, Chiarelli probably went "Don, we're going to offer sheet him in July if no deal gets done. We're not giving up Nurse". Sweeney then responds a couple days later by trading him to Calgary for similar picks package, and does a big FU to Chiarelli".
At least, that's how I'm going to imagine how it went down in my head lol.

Well, the Oiler picks weren't better than ours.
Our first was one spot higher - which actually matters in the first round. Their second was better than our (1st) second
Our 2nd second was better than the 3rd they offered.
So unless youre saying that an early second round pick and a third is better than moving up 1 spot in the first round plus a late second round pick, it's tough to say their offer was better.
