EDM-Tyson Barrie @4.5/UFA2024 for

PHI-Rasmus Ristolainen $3.4/UFA2022 ($2mil Retained) + 2022-3rd Round Pick-PHI

Philadelphia gets a High Scoring Offensive Power Play QB with a decent Cap Hit and Term in Barrie and the Oilers get a Big Young Intimidating Defensemen in Ristolainen who Hits, Blocks Shots, Kills Penalties and will Clear the Crease and be that Front Net presence they need and he can pitch in on the Power Play too. Hopefully Ristolainen fits in and re-signs in EDM for $4.5mil or less for a couple years. RD Justin Braun and LD Kevin Connaughton are 2 cheaper Philly D-Men EDM could take a look at as well.

Are you allowed to retain more than 50% in a trade now days?

As Face-lift suggested, 50% is the maximum salart that can be retained in a trade.

For all the reasons Trevor mentioned it would be an ideal exchange of talent.

The fact there's 2 more years after this one on Barrie's deal you'd need to include a sweetener. Regardless, Edmonton's in more need of some help in goal and up front.

By the time they get true cap relief in a few years it may be too late. Holland was left with a HUGE mess.

3.4M is his cap after retaining 2M so it’s less than 50%. I’d do this trade for sure as an Oil fan though.

Thanks for the correction Ebs, you and Trevor are correct 👍.

The oilers should be the ones giving up a pick.

Nah, Barrie is the 3 time All-Star, including last year when he had 48 points in 56 games = 0.85PPG = Wow, but EDM has Bouchard @863k, so don't really need Barrie @$4.5mil. They either need a Big Shut Down D-Man OR a Top-4 RW + a Cheaper 3rd Pairing RD.

Ristolainen hasn't played very well this year or last year, his stats have actually been sliding the past 3 seasons in a row.
