2025/2026 Season Trade Rumours and Speculation Thread

There are more than a few posters here that used that time proven tradition of pecking away at a poster until he finally snaps and defends himself only to catch a sin bin or a suspension. They get banned themselves when they inw Italy cross the line and then magically reappear under a new handle. VPN's are a great thing aren't they? Anyhow this has gone far enough off topic. He baited the hook and I swallowed it while because I am having an extremely bad fn day. Good job. Back on topic time.

Using someone's words against them isn't baiting, asking them to clarify isn't trolling. For a guy that's "following you around" the fact he's had less than 50 posts in all of 2025 might suggest that you're the one with the issue, not him. What's with all the VPN and suspension talk, do you think squiggs is using a new username from 2009?

He quoted your own words; you in turn called him a muppet, got emotional, started ranting, complained about that site than declared the argument over once you've decided it was done. It might be time to get a giant mirror and look into it for an afternoon.

You don't actually believe this, do you?

From a couple of months ago:
I don't know what he will do. I have never met McDavid, nor do I know anyone remotely close to him. What I do know is for a while you have been defiant to anyone that suggests McDavid would stay in Edmonton, or go anywhere else. You have been adamant that he will leave after the current contract, and he might. Now, you are saying he might stay if Leon can convince him to. It seems this is being set up so you can claim to be "right all along" when the situation resolves itself.

I am really sick of you following me around trying to stir the pot, what are you 8 years old? Tell you what, if I am wrong and he signs a long term extension with the Oilers I will leave. If he wins a short extension and then doesn't sign in Toronto I will leave. If however his next deal after the Oilers is in fact with the Leafs like I said it will be you get the F out of here and leave me alone. Deal? I would rather be wrong and not have to deal with your juvenile bs anymore. I sometimes wonder about these idiots that live to troll others on here, you must be a real quality person in real life squiggs.

Someone should make a thread discussing hockey trades and rumors.

I don't know. Sure Edmonton is No Good but Trump is 10,000X deplorable.

It was easy during the 4 nations.

[Johnny Makarov]

We need to do a group CP buy and hire someone to dump 2 truck loads of manure onto McDavid's lawn. That will help with his decision.

Although the smell wouldn't factor in much.

[traptor]

I do think there are packages for McDavid that could make the Oilers a better team, but it would cripple the team trading for him to the point where McD wouldn't want to sgin with them anymore. Because McD is only getting traded to a team he'd be willing to sign. Then you have to factor in the NTCs from the other players included.




Maybe the Stars could do it with something based around Johnston/robertson + harley ++.



I dont think the vegas, florida teams, Rangers or leafs have realistic offers.


Not sure where else he would realistically prefer to go.

[Sofa GM]

If it gets to the point they trade McDavid, the package isn’t as lucrative as you think. 1st, A prospect, another top 6 F or top 4 d roster player.

Dallas would not give both Harley and Johnston for McDavid.

[topfiverecords]

The entire league should chip in like a gofundme.

What could that proposed package possibly be based on with such confidence, for one of the greatest players in history being traded?

Thats like the standard trade deadline package for most expiring contract star players.

Would love to expand on the rest of the discussion but would love to see this.

This is what people think we will get for Rasmus somehow.

I dunno... if they had a signed extension it should be an easy yes. Dallas would win the cup with mcdavid.

Thats a hard offer to beat though.
