For what?

@SportsnetSpec44s
Some momentum on a Sam Gagner deal? I've heard Nashville, and @FriedgeHNIC now reporting Matt Hendricks perhaps coming back to EDM.

 

[Tad Mikowsky]

This could be very interesting.

 

[backhandsauce]

Hendricks is a beauty.

 

[sepHF]

If true our shootout lineup is insane

Hendricks
Eberle
Hemsky
Perron
Gagner

Too bad we're not good enough to force teams into OT

#Oilers acquire forward Matt Hendricks from @PredsNHL in exchange for goaltender Devan Dubnyk.

Wow.

 

[OilerFan4Life]

Wozers.

Bold?

 

[OilerTyler]

Hopefully they start Dubnyk on Sunday the 26th

 

[RipsADrive]

Smithson 2.0?

Later Dubbie.

Wow.

Just threw my arms up in the air and yelled "yes".

You have to think we're moving Gagner now.

RNH
Gagner
Arcobello
Gordon
Hendricks
Lander

Who's our backup now?

Scouting Report on Hendricks

Assets:

Works hard, provides energy and isn't afraid of playing a physical brand of hockey. Can produce points and displays playmaking instincts at lower levels.

Flaws:

Needs to avoid taking bad penalties. Is inconsistent in the scoring department, even at the minor-league level. Must out-work everyone because he lacks high-end skill.

Career Potential:

Versatile energy depth forward

 

[Joey Moss]

Love it.

 

[backhandsauce]

Beauty Move.

Way to go Mac T.

 

[GirardSpinorama]

Love Hendricks, was awesome on the Avs.

 

[RipsADrive]

Who's our backup now?

Bachman?

He was awesome for that one game...

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

MacT never liked Dubnyk...wanted Schneider, Raata and got Bryz

 

[cyril*]

Friedman showing again why he's the best hockey insider out there. He hops off a plane and still gets the scoop first.

Bye Dooby!

 

[Mentallydull]

Who's our backup now?

My best guess would be Bachman (unless he's still injured - not sure of his status).

 

[Mr Forever]

Nice!

 

[Soundwave]

So ends the era of Dubnyk ... now a new age begins.

 

[ManByng]

yup, just heard about it on TSN 1260, finally, DD is gone! woo hoo!! but....expect as little return for Hemsky and Gagner too.

 

[McDrailers]

**** YES!!! Party at my house for all

 

[McGhostbuster]

I voted +1 for MacT on this deal.
