If we say all parties involved reach their max upside:
OEL becomes an all-star dman 45-50 point guy
Strome becomes Martin St Louis as a C
Reinhart becomes a physical 45-50 point guy and all star...not really possible to figure out his max upside right now since hes still a pup.
Grabner gains consistency as a 25-goal/50-point guy.
Thats a lot to give up for any one player thats not a proven all star guy.

This is just laughable. If Reinhardt has 50 point upside, OEL has 90 point upside. Sure all these guys COULD be good, but OEL is already a legit #1 dman with the potential for multiple Norris'. Phoenix doesn't need a bunch of good players, they need a franchise player... Which they have... And won't be trading
