<p>The list of players linked to the Oilers continues to grow as we approach the NHL Trade Deadline! On Oilersnation Socials I asked for predictions for this year&#8217;s deadline, let&#8217;s see what you had to say!</p>

<p>Many like Memeon_draisaitl are predicting the Edmonton Oilers will do nothing! Now that doesn&#8217;t sound appealing at all to Oilers fans. Let&#8217;s hope March 3rd isn&#8217;t as grim as forecasted.</p>

<p>Regardless of what happens, Oilers fans will be pissed! There&#8217;s no doubt about that however same can be said even when they win! The Oilers could win 10-0 but someone will make a complaint about Darnell Nurse or whoever. But back to the trade talk, one deal could set the fanbase ablaze instead of euphoria.</p>

<p>Excuse me for my lack of player knowledge but I had to google the first two players Rob listed. Maybe this is Ken Holland&#8217;s burner account on Instagram? However, the idea of trading Matvei Petrov isn&#8217;t the worst proposition in my opinion.</p>

<p>Austin are you reading Ken Holland&#8217;s mind? It&#8217;s either this response or “The emergence of Vincent Desharnais was like a deadline acquisition”</p>

<p>Craig Hall believes we are going ALL-IN! Wait, can we trade 2045 draft picks yet? I can understand Craig&#8217;s itch to move on! Don&#8217;t worry, the dust will settle soon and then we can focus on the playoff push.</p>

<p>More of a realistic thought from Joel. I like the idea of taking a run at Chychurn one last time. Tyler Yaremchuk on Oilersnation After Dark pondered if Arizona will become desperate and ask for less. Would be awesome if we didn&#8217;t need to give a first round pick but regardless it should be in play for someone like Chychurn. My only gripe with the Coyotes&#8217; defenseman is his injury history.</p>

<p>Peter is basically saying what I said about Desharnais. Possibly Broberg instead? Watch him go to Detroit and trade for Nyquist who won&#8217;t be available until the playoffs.</p>

<p>It wouldn&#8217;t be an Oilers trade deadline without acquiring someone who&#8217;s from Alberta. Or maybe that was just last season with Brett Kulak. Hilarious response from Ranger Bob on Twitter.</p>
