[bobbythebrain]

Holland did a hell of a job with this one.

worst GM in the NHL, never forget

 

[McRpro]

Pretty Jacked

[EchoesoftheEighties]

Holy shit I'm actually so f***ing stoked at this signing. RIP my sleep schedule

 

[snag]

After kane and Soup signings..

....resign kulak at 3.125 million
X 4 years
Mcleod at 1.125 million x 2 years
Yamamoto at 3.75 million x 4 years

4 million left.
Puljujarvi to trade.
Doesn't feel like a Giroux signing is coming.
Could still trade for a proverov or chychryn if foegele or Barrie are involved.

Maybe Perron would like to try winning in Edmonton foe a change....

Nice.
Does this null the Kane - SJ arbitration?

Probably got Bettman out of bed for an emergency meeting....

 

[DaGap]

If im holland im looking for a meaty winger to play with Drai

Edit:

Or get Giroux and bump Hyman back to playing with RNH

 

[syz]

Now to wait and see how the NHL decides to force the team to have to compensate SJ.

 

[Sheikyerbouti]

Timing, length and salary are all great.

 

[Oilhawks]

Damn, I'm so excited I'm not going to be able to sleep. And I've woken up early out of excitement on the first day of Free Agency and the TDL the last few years now that the team has been competitive.

Christmas in July

 

[VainGretzky]

The best part about all of this is Bob can finally stop talking about Josh Anderson now

Well Bob will still dream about his sweetheart every night

 

[foshizzle]

Only bad part of this is that Anna will probably move to Edmonton now she was talking about it last week

Kane is Canadian. Anna will have to go through immigration as she is not married, nor does she have custody of her kid. She can come as a visitor though.

 

[Oilhawks]

Can't wait to get a Kane jersey

 

[sepHF]

He could've got more money forsure, nice deal. Only four years too damn

 

[Okanagan]

Fantastic deal for the club! Awaiting Bettman’s announcement of compensation of draft picks to the Sharks.

 

[bobbythebrain]

Kane tweet putting his trust in Holland. The anti-Holland crowd can go f***

 

[syz]

Now find a legit top 4 defenseman and hope that Campbell doesn't shit the bed and we're in business.

 

[Del Preston]

 

[PostBradMalone]

I still loathe Holland with a passion, but this has to be one of the best contracts ever signed by an Oiler in the cap era when considering it’s based on current and not past or predicted results.

 

[OilersSnowFan]

Kane is Canadian. Anna will have to go through immigration as she is not married, nor does she have custody of her kid. She can come as a visitor though.

Pretty sure she Canadian as well

 

[GMofOilers]

Holland will bring us a cup

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

Bravo Holland?

Didn't think I'd be saying that.

 

[OilersSnowFan]

Year 4 of the contract is pretty decent buyout wise if things unlikely shit the bed

 

[J2theRock]

Kane will hit 40G this year and likely pushes for 50 if he stays healthy and without any suspensions. McDavid likely hits 150+ points with a legitimate goal scorer on his wing for a full season.

Very stoked with this signing!

 

[Leonardlizard]

Great news

 

[Paralyzer008]

Pros: Kane and McDavid showed that this has massive potential. He's a legit top-six forward with grit added and puts the puck in the net. The cap hit is very, very reasonable.

Cons: We don't know if Kane's game will drop off now that he got paid. Let's hope not. He also needs to chill with some dumber penalties and his defensive game is come and go, but he won't have to worry too much playing with Connor.

Overall: This can work. Really will be up to Evander in the end. We've done worse.
