The difference between Drai and Tkachuk is more then SM.
I don’t know if I’d trade Nurse for SM it would be close though.
Bennet and JP are a wash and are both crap right now. Bennet got 12 points and is on the way to being the next Jankowski.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Nurse is functionally terrible in his own end, he's a better offensive version of Denis Gauthier and that's not a great thing, he's got the hockey IQ of a stick. Nobody but an Oilers fan would say he wouldn't trade Nurse for SM.
Bennett and JP are definately not a wash. JP was not an NHL player in his last go around. Even with Bennett's struggle he's actually an NHL player.
Draisaitl is a great player, nobody is arguing that, but his not give a crap performance in the run up to the playoffs where he pretty much played for his own points is detrimental. Again without McDavid at his side, he takes a drop.
But again not trading Nurse for SM is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard.
