We can retroactively put Yamamoto on LTIR because he missed over 10 games correct?
What would it matter. We can't retroactively add players to change results in those 10 games and he's back on the roster now and you only get the extra cap space for the time the player is on the LTIR.

Yes I realize all that.

And yes, it could end up mattering in the end considering how tight the Oilers are against the cap.

It wouldn't matter because the Oilers weren't using all their cap space with Kane out anyways and it doesn't get banked.

All it would have meant is that they could have temporarily added more salary while out, but it would have been pointless because of the contract values available to them wouldn't have surpassed Kane's LTIR relief anyways. In the current circumstances for Edmonton there was not a a single penny available extra to the team by LTIRing him instead of keeping it just IR.

All they could have done differently if LTIRing him was picking up a more costly player, but they would have been hooped the minute he came of the LTIR making them have to find a way to dump the money again.

Hopefully Yamamoto has been watching and knows now that he replaceable. 3 million dollars 🤮
Maybe he’ll actually play like a 3 million dollar man now that he is “healthy” or whatever that means to Oilers doctors

Am I alone in not wanting Ovetchkin to break the record. I mean it won't keep me up at night, but I'd rather he didn't.
I don’t care about that guy’s success at all, I just want him shut down tonight!

Hopefully Yams can find his form after some much needed time off.

Can't wait for the Draisaitl goal watch thread in 10 years where he looks to beat Gretz/Ovi's goal record.

Why can't they just have normal start times for home games? Early than normal tonight and late again on Wednesday. Like F' right off NHL and Rogers!

Let's get our new winning streak started tonight.

we’ve got a week at home here, the coaching staff absolutely has to get them making gains defensively and on the pk. Need to use this time to focus on their attention to detail and execution.
