## Resource

Sam OReilly’s breakout year—Memorial Cup MVP, league MVP—has Oilers fans wondering if trading him for Isaac Howard was a mistake. But Howard’s own path is no less impressive: Hobey Baker winner, strong AHL rookie season, and a proven pro. While O’Reilly dominates in junior, Howard brings experience and a smoother development arc, perfect for replacing veterans like Hyman or Nugent-Hopkins. The trade mirrors successful deals like McLeod for Savoie—both sides got value. Neither player has truly arrived in the NHL yet, so it’s too early to call it a “one that got away,” but this one’s worth watching over the next decade.
