Without one of Draisatl or McDavid going anywhere, I just don't see how the Oilers can even hope to be in the mix. McDavid at $12.5M and Drai at $8.5M and they are going to add a player that will be projected at $9-11M to re-sign. How does that make sense to anybody capable of rational thought.
Unless they think they are one good player away from making a cup run this year and renting Hall. The thought that maybe one person within the Oiler organization just might think this way warms my heart and brings a tear to my eye!
