ok you said you believe it went away. But what are the rules for trading for daft picks. I want to know for sure, because if this could be done then I think Terry Pegula might spend some serious money to make it happen. anyone know the official rules for trading for draft picks. I just found my own answer right here no cash can't be used in a trade http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles/2435327-2015-nhl-draft-lottery-what-would-it-take-to-get-connor-mcdavid-from-oilers

it was talked about in the large thread after the lottery that the Oilers are close to bankruptcy if you traded them Risto and Reinhart and a couple 100 million this might get it done. The oilers owner would get the cash flow he needs.

Trade a couple of players and 100 million dollars for the first pick in the draft. I know the Edmonton Oilers are hurting for money. I know there GM said he would not trade. But the owner has the final say so. So what if the Sabres offered a couple great players and 100 to 200 million for the first pick and we end up with both Eichel and McDavid are there any rules against offering cash and players in a trade for a draft pick.

Boy that would be great and if it happened we might be set for the next 15 years.
