[Oilers in NS]

This will fill up quick
I had my phone fully charged and now it’s dead again since this morning. Good week to be off

 

[McDoused]

2nd Pair LHD please.

 

[XXIV97]

Get another D and Connor Brown.

Kane-McDavid-Brown
Hyman-Draisaitl-Yamamoto
Foegele/Puljujarvi-RNH-McLeod
Holloway-X-X

Nurse-Ceci
X-Bouchard
Broberg-X

Campbell
Skinner

Trade Barrie and one of Foegele/Pul (I would keep both but it looks like we are trading one)

 

[CookiesAndMilk]

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

I want, today. Marchment, Campbell and Ashton-Reese (and Kulak too)

No matter what they did in juniors, Connor Brown is a Bottom-6 Forward.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Love how Campbell is one of the most liked played and Kane is one of the most disliked. Hollland going for that Chaotic Neutral

 

[Norwegianoiler]

Really hoping that Brett Kulak is signed at around 2.5M here. He's underrated for the amount of minutes he can quietly play.

 

[La Bamba]

It likely won't happen but if Campbell signs in Edmonton for less than 4.7M AAV, I'd laugh my ass off

 

[Canovin]

Trade Foegele to make room for Marchment

Don't get my hopes up. But it would be hilarious.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

My hope is his cap hit ends up at $4.5M, that would be just incredible.

Trade Foegele to make room for Marchment

There's room for him anyways.

 

[Canovin]

It likely won't happen but if Campbell signs in Edmonton for less than 4.7M AAV, I'd laugh my ass off

Since we are doing this, I'm guessing 4.5M

 

[Rengorlex]

Get a good LD. Sign Marchment. Win the Cup.

 

[FunkyChicken]

Hoping they can free up some capspace (PJ, Foegele) to bring in another legit top 6 forward like Perron.

 

[fuswald]

Campbell 4.75
Kulak 2.9

 

[Canovin]

My hope is his cap hit ends up at $4.5M, that would be just incredible.


There's room for him anyways.

We still need a top 4 LD. That's going to cost us ~5M. Hopefully it's Chychrun or Sanheim

 

[bestmyfeeling]

Man, are u friends with Kanes X? Give u some advice and I live by this
IF YOU WERENT THERE AND DIDNT SEE IT WITH YOUR OWN EYES AND EARS, YOU KNOW SWEET FA

Did u check out playoffs last year? Kane made us a very good team. He is proven. I’ll go back to him . He took Tkachuk, Lemieux outta each series. They were scared shitless off him. Does Giroux bring that?

lol relax...I didn't say I believe her, I just said that stuff is always brought up and 'can' become a distraction. Keyword is can.

SKILL > TOUGHNESS in my books.

Of course I watched the playoffs, yea Kane was great against LA and CGY; I mean I guess kane took out kadri in the colorado series too, literally....but colorado's immense skill swept our asses. I'm not saying kane is bad, i'm also not saying we shouldn't sign kane, all I'm saying is if I had to pick I pick Giroux

hypothetical, would you pick mcdavid or draisatl if you had to pick ONE? obviously mcdavid, but draisatl is the better shooter, back-hand passer, tougher and more size....doesn't mean I pick him over mcdavid.

I agree, I still think that will come about after Barrie is moved.

 

[mrmisery]

I'm just a little nervous that Toronto wasn't even willing to make an offer.

 

[SDig14]

DNB on next on 1260, he has actual connections to Holland, hopefully better insight into the plan today.

 

[Paralyzer008]

Connor Brown basically had Puljujarvi's production and shows up less in most other categories.

So the big difference would be that he speaks better English and plays PK right?

That move to me is basically just appeasing Connor.

Now, if it were Foegele for Brown, and then Puljujarvi used for something else, I think that makes more sense in terms of improvement, especially if Puljujarvi is necessary in getting a top 4 D.

 

[Oilhawks]

I'm just a little nervous that Toronto wasn't even willing to make an offer.

They did. It was too low. Then they cleared Mrazek’s cap and offered more but the bridge was already a smouldering ruin

 

[The Safe Play]

I think if they can't get Kulak done I hope they just wait and try to make a trade work. None of the other options will cut it so you may as well swing for the fences.

 

[McDoused]

Really hoping that Brett Kulak is signed at around 2.5M here. He's underrated for the amount of minutes he can quietly play.

Dmen are always overpaid on free agency day. The market is limited. I expect someone will give him 3 or 3.5+M.
