Interesting question.
Flames get:Ryan Nugent-Hopkins ($6,000,000; UFA 2021)
Evan Bouchard ($863,333; RFA 2023)
Jujhar Khaira ($1,200,000; RFA 2021)
1st in 2020
Conditional Pick in 2022 (1st if Oilers reach Conference finals in 2021 or 2022, and/or Gaudreau records 90+ points in 2021 or 2022; if neither condition is met a 2nd in 2022)
Oilers get:Johnny Gaudreau ($6,750,000; UFA 2022)
Derek Ryan ($3,125,000; UFA 2021)
Reasoning. RNH could add more center depth and an additional PKer, Bouchard is a high end RHD prospect, would look great paired with Valimaki, Mackey, Hanifin or Kylington. Khaira adds extra PK depth and he plays with a bit of an edge, would be a nice add for the 4th line to replace Rinaldo/Jankowski/ 14th overall pick in 2020 (I think the 14th and 19th could be paired to trade into the top 10). And of course the conditional pick of they are successful and/or Gaudreau has great success.
