Trade Ryder to Edmonton

:hlogo: Ship Ryder, G. Murray, J. Gorges & D. MIlroy to Edmonton for F. Pasani, Z. Stortini & M.A Pouliot. Then we look like this upfront : Latendresse/Koivu/Kovalev, Higgins/Plecanek/Kostitsyn, Pasani/Smolinski/Kostopolous, Begin/Lapierre/Pouliot(Stortini) Depth with Lahti and Streit. Getting Stortini would be great because we need someone for a fourth line enforcer and we have nobody now. Plus the guy is a great energy player and won't hurt us defensively.

This leads me to wonder if we should have another stickied thread for "Fantasy Trades" to go right up there underneath the "Permanent Rumour Thread"

we don't exactly encourage fantasy trades.

trade the only sniper we got and the first one we've had in years???? smart move. :rolleyes:

Trading Ryder doesn't make it a dumb move - but the trade suggestion itself only makes us worse.

The only reason to get rid of Ryder would be the emergence of a young player to score bunch of goals.

We do need a stability in this team if we want to win some games.

And we do not need more grinders. If we grind more than that we will be burried in december.

Ryder scored more goals last year than all three Oilers combined. Pasani is a good third line, energy guy, but he's still living off a single playoff season that may or may not be repeated, and it's more likely to be the latter. Stortini and Pouliot would just add to an already teeming supply of good young prospects who could develop into something. I'll take the proven over the potential every day of the week.

If Ryder and his 30 goals must go than a "Marleau" or someone similar has to come the other way.

Marleau's season totals: 2006-07 77GP 32G 46A 78PTS +9 17.78SH%

Unfortunately it appears that maybe (sorry Spider-Man NL) Ryder has boyhood St. John's blue and white syndrome :(

By the way, the Oilers will never trade Pisani, he's an hometown boy. It's as if Montreal would trade Latendresse... :blink:

No, it's not. It's as if Montreal traded Dandenault.
