I'm going send you Stone and retain a million. I'm going to help you make your fans happy, first by you getting rid of Lucic, second for this year you can make the fans forget about how bad your team is by getting an elite winger for McDavid.
But all I want back is your first unprotected, Lucic and either Bear or Poolparty.
Edmonton suddenly gets a win on the cap side and a win on the winger side.
With Stone gone, I find a way to move Karlsson.
With Stone gone and sluggish Lucic in his place there's no way that I don't finish dead freaking last. There's always a chance that Edmonton's loser characteristics kick in and the Oilers miss the playoffs and their pick is another lottery pick. There's a possibility now of getting Ottawa fans excited with the next draft and the chance to get the next great things x 2

and if you're Lucic, what's the incentive to waive your NMC and go to Ottawa? I don't see him waiving to play on a team that's not going to be competitive in the next 5 years.
