2026 NHL UFA/Trade Thread

[GEEMAN]

McDavid controls the situation.

This will be Marner situation all over....Edmonton won't trade him....they will try try try to win until his UFA year, they will go down fighting, with hopes that they win that Cup

Fighting a war your not going to win , regime is dumber than bag of bricks

They are toast with this roster

 

[GEEMAN]

Have to say for a superstar, McDavid isn’t shy about speaking his mind & doesn’t dodge questions or media….

This season he hammered his coaches tactical abilities & GMs ability to in building an avg team

He was average in the playoffs albeit injured

 

[TheCountofMonteCristo]

If the lose CMD for nothing it’s the Carthage Oilers. Burning it down, then salting it.

City is gone.

Worm and Wehave will have to fight to the last bullet to prevent it

$7.75M AAV.

Because he wants to win a Cup?

He can do that elsewhere. There are a few teams that are a McDavid away from being a serious contender.

 

[Habsy]

He might bolt to the U.S. but I think there's about zero chance he goes to Toronto.

Well at this point probably. Terrible situation in Toronto.

not many

 

[Stinky]

Sharks. Ducks. Stars.

 

[Habsy]

Avs, Minny, Sabres, Canes, Tampa, Panthers..

 

[Habsy]

Several

 

[Habsy]

Any one of those teams would clear space for McDavid

 

[CH1]

Avs, Minny, Sabres, Canes, Tampa, Panthers..

some of those teams don't have the trade ammo

Yup its a complicated transaction

Oils need a few stud prospects ready to play , 1-2 top 6 under 26 players and multiple firsts

Sharks , Ducks , Utah can do it

 

[lecoqsportif]

Could be three team trade.

 

[Habsy]

Sure they do. Edmonton would want nhl ready players.
