Monster Trade Rumor Between Oilers and Avalanche

The National Hockey League's NHL Network is reporting on a monster trade rumor between the Edmonton Oilers and Colorado Avalanche.

NHL Network Analyst Brian Lawton reports about a shocking trade rumor that will shake up the absolute core of the Edmonton Oilers and the Colorado Avalanche.

Oilers star forward Leon Draisaitl and Avalanche forward Matt Duchene are the main pieces of a monster trade, including other pieces.

Athough Draisaitl had a much better season than Duchene, Duchene would be signed to a much cheaper contract than Draisaitl is going to sign for. The additional cap space may be valuable to the Oilers, who will need alot of money to sign McDavid to the biggest contract ever signed in the NHL!
