Eberle though?

Not remotely.
Main reason why not for either of those guys is their contracts and how soon they are to being expensive. #6 will be cheap for 3-4 years depending how long they take to make the nhl. Draisaitl will be expensive after this season. Hall isn't far away from UFA.

Not so much weird trade idea as it is a terrible trade idea

Still worth it. If he gets expensive, it will be because he is producing for us. We will be rid of almost all our bad contracts after this season, so I would not worry too much about it.

Draisaitl will be expensive because he plays in Edmonton. If he played on any other team in the league, they'd look at his 60 points in 109 games and give him 2 years @ 2.5.

But because Oilers, he'll get 6x5 minimum.

So, that justifies new bad contracts?

Agree. Right now, it's just the defensemen polls running, very few others.

I wouldn't touch Taylor Hall to be honest. Puts up points and that's about it.

Yeah, pretty much. Certainly speeds has a good pulse on what most think about Eberle here. Wonder what information he thought he'd get from this.

I didn't think many Flames fans would be in favor of it, I was just looking to get more info on the CGY perspective.

What annual contract AAV $ makes this trade feasible?

No. If players like Eberle were worth anywhere near a top 10 pick the Oilers would be contenders every single season.

I believe OP has created the most lopsided poll in internet history. Not even the trolls can bring themselves to get Eberle to at least the 5% mark.

Booo for it not being a public poll.
