He's killed his value with every game this year.
I suspect any trade involving Eberle is one where the Oilers add to get less. I think he has Kotalik type value, a trade where if they don't want to eat serious salary it is something like Eberle and Nurse for a 2nd rounder and Chris Butler.

In other Oiler fantasy news, I like the "Vegas will pick up Pouliot" line of thinking. If Vegas does anything other than pick Letestu or sign Pitlick, McPhee should be fired on the spot.
