You know what, if philly plans on offering a contract extension to Talbot and they in fact want him for long term I think that’s very interesting. Oilers upgrade with a more offensive dman while philly get Nurse back this is for sure interesting and I’d take this if I’m Edmonton.

Absolutely not how can you think that’s a fair deal? Talbot isn’t bad cause of Talbot . Talbot is bad because Edmonton is terrible . The issues go deeper then the goaltending . P.

I know provorov is having a down year to, while nurse currently has his career high for points (although provs is 41 from last year) but nurse for sure fits phillys style of tough hockey.

I can't see Philly trading to get Talbot as they have had enough goalies that will not lead them to the playoffs and Provorov is much better than Nurse.

I like the goalie swap, both need a backup but for different reasons, Edmonton needs a serviceable backup to Koskinen next season, while Philly needs a veteran backup to ease Hart into the starter role and both him and Talbot are friends.

The defense swap may interest Edmonton for cap reasons but I don't see Philly wanting to let go of Provorov this early.

Yup i agree with your points Drwdave, not sure how willing philly would be to let go from provorov.

Philly I’m sure says no easily. Provorov’s ceiling is a lot higher than Nurses. If they want Talbot and it sounds like they do, it’ll be for a lot smaller deal I think.
Also DrwDave I’m sure Provorov is going to be making more money than Nurse next year so it doesn’t help Edmonton with cap.

Isn’t Provorov projected to be top 5 defenseman and potential Norris candidate? I don’t know if Philly would be willing to make that trade. Nurse is good, but not that good.
