Alright lets see if he can play well still in Alberta. Atleast he can snipe still?

 

[oXo Cube]

Uh... Okay.

Would have liked to give Jokinen a bit more of a shot but I guess this is a better fit on paper.

 

[StevenF1919]

Seems like a decent deal to me. Cammalleri has been relatively productive and Jokinen wasn't really working out here.

 

[NeverForget06]

Same contract as Jokinen and it isn't really possible for him to be more useless. Worth a shot I guess

 

[Pointteen]

I wanted Jokinen. I wanted him to be a part of the success. But look at the special teams...

 

[Tyrolean]

Almost the same ages Cam is slightly better stats but we'll see. Smaller player though hopefully speedier.

 

[Del Preston]

Based Chia

 

[NeverForget06]

Not really sure what LA was thinking? Cammalleri has 7 points in 14 games. Same production as our entire bottom 6 hahah

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Flip of free agent signings not fitting in as expected?

LA has a couple of kids like Iafello or whatever his name is that have stepped up.

Cammalleri was still on pace for ~35 points as a King.

 

[McDNicks17]

That came out of left field.

I like it.

How can we spin this to trash Chiarelli?

Chiarelli always does very well with these little trades. It's big trades and contracts that he's absolutely awful at.

Great deal for a temp fix. Good Riddance Jokigone. Welcome back to Alberta Mike. Your reward McDavid as your center.

 

[McDNicks17]

I wonder if he can play RW.

That's about it, if he has better foot speed, he'll be a much better fit for the Oilers. I think, again if he has the foot speed, he might be a nice fit with Strome on that 3rd line.

I really thought Jokinen was going to work out better. I guess the team gets a shot at someone else who can inject some offense. Hope it works out.

Whenever Chia has a player of value to move is when he messes up. He is actually pretty good at moving garbage for okay players.

What does this even mean?

 

[CycloneSweep]

I really thought Jokinen was going to work out better. I guess the team gets a shot at someone else who can inject some offense. Hope it works out.

As long as he doesn't return to a 60 point player with LA

 

[doulos]

I wonder if he can play RW.

He played RW in Montreal for sure.

 

[Soli]

I wonder if he can play RW.

I like him as a LH shooter on the PP, hell I'd just leave him at RW and let him onetime pucks. pew pew pew.

 

[doulos]

As long as he doesn't return to a 60 point player with LA

Not too worried about that. Cammalleri is a better offensive player but he will be hurt for at least 20 games this year. Like clockwork.

 

[CycloneSweep]

I hope this isn't Chia getting a player so he can try and move Puljujarvi back to the Condors.
