Why are expecting a JP decision today? Hes going to file for arbitration and prolong this isnt he? Why would he sign the qualifying offer?
I'm not expecting it, but I believe there was a tweet saying that there could be something happening with the team today and I would suspect that it would be regarding Jesse since he seems like the odd man out.Why are expecting a JP decision today?

If I remember correctly, they need to reject their qualifying offer to file for arbitration, and Puljujarvi was never gonna sign his anyways since it would be highly advantageous for the Oilers to have him on a 1 year 1.41 million dollar a year contract. He'd lose all negotiating power, especially if he was pushing for a trade.Why are expecting a JP decision today? Hes going to file for arbitration and prolong this isnt he?

If moving on from the Oilers is a priority for JP, he shouldn’t file for arbitration. But he’ll want to have his cake and eat it too.

I think so, but most teams won’t want to acquire him until they have a better idea of his cap hit.We can still trade him though right? Didnt detroit trade and sign Jason Dickinson after he filed?
I think the Oilers target is to sign all 3 RFA’s for around 6.5 million. 3.25 for Yamamoto, 2.75 for JP and 1.5 for Mckeod. I’m guessing that both Yams and JP are asking for 4.
Yah love Yam but I'd make that trade...Soucy would look great here. For some reason I think JP gets 3.5 mil per in arbitration and it will make him harder to move.TBH, McLeod seems like the one with the most upside so I'd definitely prioritize him. I'd try to bring back Puljujarvi and use him on the third line with McLeod or Nuge as his centre and move him up if he shows promise. I don't think he was tried with Draisaitl for any length of time, so maybe that's fit too.
I'd sign and swap Yams for a good defensive defensemen that can fit into the top 5. Maybe Yamamoto for Soucy? Yamamoto can return to Seattle and we can have a defensive D alongside Bouchard.
Wonder if the smarter move is to get some term on McLeod. Showed a little more late last year, could be a keeper.McLeod isn’t getting 1.5M- he has no arb rights and no negotiation leverage. His brother, with similar stats and in the same position, just signed for under a million
They’ll try and sign him for 2-3 years at that hit. if it’s one year then it will be between 950k-1 million.McLeod isn’t getting 1.5M- he has no arb rights and no negotiation leverage. His brother, with similar stats and in the same position, just signed for under a million
Yeah, arbitration doesn’t block trades.We can still trade him though right? Didnt detroit trade and sign Jason Dickinson after he filed?

Where was this rumour?Is the rumor that something bigger happens later today still valid?
