That Tweeter is from Vancouver lol. Hence the 9:01

Well that makes sense then lol.

Maybe this is a dumb question. Can a team (read : oilers) go over the cap tomorrow and then worry about getting cap compliant before the season starts? Or at no time can you be over? Obviously that may not be the smartest idea because teams can bend you over if they know you are in trouble. But just was curious.

You’re allowed a ten percent cushion in the off-season but have to be compliant first day of the season.

You can be 10% over.

no time to bicker with someone. I’m channel surfing and trying to catch up on rumours for Oilers
That rumour can’t be true that Patches from Vegas was almost traded to Edmonton draft day for Nurse and 14th

That was just some random troll claiming Nurse/14th.

Yes in a normal offseason teams can go 10% over the cap.

So our space is a little bigger. Cant see many teams rushing to help us shed that space come Jan 1 though.

"Rumour".

I don't know why people think this has any likelihood. Chiasson is horrible / overpaid. Russel is mediocre / overpaid. Why would there be a market for them in a flat cap world?

If the rumour of owners calling asking about the cap floor penalty is true, Russell is going to have value since his actual salary is so low compared to his cap.

Chiasson is just a dream

I feel like teams are giving the Devils freebies and they still suck. Murray for a 5th rounder is a steal

Probably worth a 6th to a team out of division
