The Trade That Could Rescue the Oilers – But Risk Avalanche Financial Chaos
A Darnell Nurse – Morgan Rielly trade makes sense for the Edmonton Oilers
Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Sun: The Edmonton Oilers have 31-year-old Darnell Nurse under contract through 2029-30 at a $9.25 million salary cap hit. He has a full no-trade that kicks to a 10-team no-trade clause after next season.
The Toronto Maple Leafs have 32-year-old Morgan under contract through 2029-30 at a $7.5 milion cap. He’s got a full no-movement clause.
A swap makes the most sense to help out with the Oilers salary cap situation. Tie Domi helped GM John Chayka get hired in Toronto, and Tie’s done Max, who plays for the Leafs, grew up with Nurse.
