I’d say the sticking point is the D that Burke is dangling. It’ll take more then Schenn, and they likely won’t do Gardiner, maybe Franson?

Oilers:
They have to take the best player available which is Yakupov. They could trade down to get Murray or Dumba but it would make more sense to trade assets like Hemsky or Gagner to fill holes on D and in net.

Agreed with all of this.
