Arizona:
- 2016 4th overall pick

Edmonton:
- 2016 7th overall
- 2016 20th overall

Explanation:
Arizona's defence looks good with OEK leading the charge and Stone and Murphy following him.

With the 4th overall pick they can select Tkachuk who is from the Arizona area which gives them grit in their offence.

Edmonton trades down like they want to and select a defenceman.

With the 20th overall pick and the 32nd, this gives Peter Chiarelli a lot of ammo to fetch a RHD.

Oilers need to trade down pick and also get a proven NHL defenseman in return, not more picks.

I'd rather take Tkachuk or PLD. If we trade down I'd be for a later pick (6-12) and a young Dman.

@MCJesus Christ

the 20th gives you ammo to fetch a defenceman.

Ammo? Oilers don't need more picks they need real defenseman who can play now. Oilers can't wait another 3 years for a young defenseman to be good.

His idea of getting picks to trade for a D isn't that bad. Using the 4th would be more realistic though. Also getting Samuelson a big right winger could be a good idea instead of the late first.

So the Oilers pick -- stated as being up for grabs the day they found out their draft position -- is "grabbed" for 2 later picks? If the Oilers don't have purpose with 4th overall, what purpose do they have with two later picks? They need players, not prospects. Ridiculous proposal.

Most of the idea behind then trading down was to get defenceman. The best defenceman are not expected to go until 6-12. If the Oilers are smart they draft a dman, so the idea was to trade down to the 6-12 range, draft the dman and also get another asset. Though I agree with above and say they'd rather get an established d instead of another pick but the op is not out to lunch here.
