Confirmed with Link: [EDM/CHI] Caggiula + Garrison for Manning + Norell

[rickysusedsht]

Well if this doesnt piss of the captain nothing will

 

[CycloneSweep]

No. Manning is not even bottom pairing worthy.

Our team will be so much better down one of our scoring forwards and 2 more 7 defenders.

 

[Soliloquy of a Dogge]

It's time that McDavid demands a trade if Chia isn't axed by tomorrow.

 

[Cloned]

OK, this deal I can't understand at all. Caggiulia was playing the best hockey since 16-17 here and we move him out? I don't even know anything about the return. Never heard of those guys. Anybody got a scoop?

We're short forwards that can actually play, suffering injuries, and we move out Cagg, Zykov, and call up Yamamoto. My ****ing lord..

Still crossing my fingers for a Lucic for a double sized Pizza deal though. But I want extra ham and mushrooms on that..

I can kinda convince myself to be neutral on the Petrovic deal, but this deal makes zero sense and is downright disturbing in a non-sequitur kind of way. Chia has actually lost his f***ing mind.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

how come Katz and Nicholson are still allowing these kinds of trades? how are they ok with this?

this is insanity

 

[McWeber]

Unless Norell is some stud prospect I have never heard of this trade has no positives. This feels like Chia giving the Oilers a middle finger on his way out.

 

[Cloned]

You think he did this in a vacuum? Don't be naive.

He's a bad GM. I'm just being realistic.

 

[CycloneSweep]

 

[nabob]

Ok fire him. This is full special needs.

 

[TKB21]

Holy f***, this season just keeps getting worse....

 

[CycloneSweep]

Unless Norell is some stud prospect I have never heard of this trade has no positives. This feels like Chia giving the Oilers a middle finger on his way out.

Norell sucked in the AHL and is shitting up a storm in the SHL

 

[Kolja]

Can every fan please boo Manning nonstop at the next game. This is ****ing ridiculous

Let's hope!

1. Manning is a f****** douch.
2. Show what we think about Chia.

 

[talitintti]

Trade for one of the worst players in the league... with a terrible contract... who McDavid hates... and give away an actually useful player.

 

[ohheyhemsky]

At this point, is he actually just burning bridges?

 

[CycloneSweep]

Our team got worse and we have less cap space this summer.

 

[oobga]

lol, I guess we are desperate for at least #6D quality players. It's nuts that our wing depth is so terrible that we might actually miss Caggiula who has been running around clueless since he came back from injury.

 

[the mcdavid era]

McDavid needs to call Chia out

 

[FlameChampion]

Getting bizarre now.

Garrisons been trash. Cagguila I liked early on in the season has kinda reverted back the bad Cagguila.

But whats the upside here? Manning isnt anything special and could be bad blood with the team considering he injured McDavid. Unless they see something in Norell. LD in SHL this year?

I dont get it really.

 

[Cloned]

Ok fire him. This is full special needs.

Only one more to turn ... @belair

 

[Heavy Dee]

Mcdavid will ask for a trade this summer. Why wouldn't he

 

[Da McBomb]

I have a feeling Caggiula is gonna carve out a pretty nice career in Chicago and this is gonna be one of those trades we hate for many years.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

Who? What?

 

[Soundwave]

how come Katz and Nicholson are still allowing these kinds of trades? how are they ok with this?

this is insanity

Because if all you are obsessed with is grovelling into the playoffs with any low seed and that constitutes "success", then at this point changing the GM does nothing for you.

The only card the Oilers have left to play is to ride McDavid + Koksinen and hope Hitch can squeeze enough juice out of this turd of a roster and maybe get some luck with Minnesota possibly fizzling out to grab a no.7 or no.8 seed. And if Klefbom is hurt, that means loading up on a bunch of low level D and hoping enough of those under a strict Hitch system can get you just enough traction.

That's the play, it's fairly transparent what they're trying to do.

 

[Multigrain]

This is craziness, Chia is in desperation mode trying too save his job

Just a question I would have to believe Hitchcock is approving these trades or at least in the "war room" creating them.

 

[dem]

Why are we letting him make trades when he isn’t going to be the gm?

 

[Multigrain]

What the hell does Manning have that we are lacking?? Add in the past history and WTF!?

Just creating a #1 goon squad!
