With phili and oil both struggling how about a shake up

OIL- RNH Nurse maroon 8.5cap

Flyers- ghost Simmonds 2nd 8.5cap

**2nd becomes St Louis 1st round pick if maroon resigns with phili

Oil get offensive D and upgrade on the wing

Phili gets good 2 way center to fill couturier old spot top 4 physical D playing 24mins a night for oilers right now on top pair and maroon is a cheaper version of Simmonds.

That is a massive overpayment. If Philly did that the gm would be run out of town. That's almost worse than the trade that saw NJ acquire Hall.

I don't know how u can say massive overpayment by phili unless you are completely underrating the players coming back. I understand ghost and Simmonds are very good but RNH is 24 and is a legit 2nd line center and Nurse is 22 and playing top pair. Maroon scored 27 goals last year and has just as many goals and points as simmonds has this year so far. I'm not debating that Simmonds is better than maroon I'm only saying your adding a legit center a legit D who's only getting better and a physical winger that scores to replace some of what you lose from Simmonds.

You basically replace your Offensive D with a great skating bigger tougher physical D capable of playing 25 mins a night. Your tough winger with another cheaper tough winger while adding a top 2 C for the price of a pick. Can't see the overpayment unless your talking from oilers side.

It's the Simmonds for Maroon and Maroon being a 1st round pick if he signs where it goes very wrong.

Maroon did score 27 goals last year but only got 42 pts after seasons of 14 pts, 13 pts and 34pts. Simmonds has more than 27 goals in all of his last 4 seasons and point totals of 54, 60, 50 and 60. Also they don't need RNH because they need to let Patrick develop into a top 6 Center (plus you need to consider his contract which isn't the best) .

Nurse is fantastic but he may dip in form and Ghost is probably the one untouchable Flyer. They'll want to build the team around him. The way I see it is:

Provorov is certainly the more untouchable dman. Easily would make Ghost expendable and build around the young Russian.
