Not at all. Either one of them attached to Jesse Puljujarvi would be an immediate detriment to the current and future Oilers' roster. If you're committed to the draft and develop method, then no, the cap is not that significant an issue that you need to hurt your immediate roster to clear a few million in salary here or there.Ah your purposefully misquoting him. He said Sekera OR Russell which is realistic and the Oilers require cap space before they do anything. As well Sekera makes far to much for a bottom pair D and has been exposed several times tonight.
Agree the Oilers need to lean on draft and develop but in the meantime cap space is required.
In that case I give Kelfbom a Z-5.4 players have a passing grade tonight. McDavid and the 4th line. Everyone else gets an F. And Nurse gets a ****in Z.
It’d be so Oilers to win this game like this and worsen their draft position.
Didn't they win some meaningless last game of the season or second last game which put them past Florida, who then won the Ekbkad draft?
Sweet no look pass, Nuge.
