The Edmonton Oilers need help at the NHL trade deadline, so Tyler and Liam are looking at the St. Louis Blues as a possible match.
In this episode, they play a game of blind ranking with five Blues players and decide how realistic each trade is – and how much they’d actually want that player on the Oilers.
Players they rank and debate:
• Tyler Tucker – young depth defenceman with upside
• Brayden Schenn – Stanley Cup–winning veteran centre
• Justin Faulk – right-shot defenceman who can play big minutes
• Colton Parayko – massive, shutdown righty with term
• Jordan Kyrou – high-skill winger with game-breaking offence
Throughout the blind ranking, Tyler and Liam break down:
• How realistic each trade is from the Blues’ perspective
• Salary cap implications and how the money could work
• Which players fit the Oilers’ biggest needs at the deadline
• Long-term contracts vs short-term playoff rentals
• Who they’d actually be willing to pay a premium for
This is the kind of trade deadline talk Oil Country lives for – cap gymnastics, wild ideas, and a few realistic options for Ken Holland (or whoever is in charge!) to explore.
