Confirmed Signing with Link: [EDM] F Corey Perry signs with the Oilers (1 year, $775k + performance bonuses)

[thaman8765678]

Too much of a scum bag for the Blackhawks organization but will fit right in on the Oilers.

 

[oXo Cube]

The Oilers play Chicago on Thursday.

 

[Matty Sundin]

Imagine trying to make the least likeable team in hockey even less likeable. Holland has managed to do that.

He still has a long way to go to get into 2011 Canucks unlikeable territory lol see what he does before the trade deadline ends

The dude that write's childrens books?

This guy is in the Trouba, Kane, Perry and Marchand tier of dickhead???? This guy?

Hyman plays with an edge, but I don’t think he really ever crosses the line? He just like the blue paint a little too much

 

[LesCanadiens]

Sensationalistic drama aside. You guys will love Corey Perry the player. And really a good fit in light of some of your needs. And he is outstanding in the playoffs.

No, as a fan who hated both... they have already surpassed the 2011 Canucks roster.

 

[fahad203]

Not sure how I feel about this since I hate Perry with a passion but he would be a great addition to the bottom 6

That's more the reason to sign him. Still a pest and adds some decent depth

If he plays ever other game I think its a great deal for oilers. He's 38

 

[LuGBuG]

 

[Kerberos]

Great addition to the roster. Really solidifies the bottom 6.

 

[bobbythebrain]

If they do significant upgrade, then great I will take them as serious contenders. If they stand pat, then no they wont go all the way

Last 2 playoffs they lost to the cup champs and they were Vegas hardest opponent. Yet you are acting like they were a pushover in the playoffs lol. Perhaps you should do some research before posting

The B's were really unlikeable in that playoffs too! Biting fingers and such. Of all the Stanley Cup finals in the 2000's.. that was the biggest collection of dickheads of all time.lol And I am currently enjoying both the B's and Nuck's this season. I just rmemeber watching that series and watching them lick and bite each other.lol Then destroy their own city in defeat (which I don't believe were actual hockey fans).

 

[Coffey]

But you seem to just like regular season stats.

Yet here you are hyping a team that's made it to the playoffs once in the last 8 years.
Do you see how you contradict yourself?

Jealous huh... You just wish your team was a contender to add him

 

[Pi]

People often forget the player needs to sign the contract too, it's not just the team who has to show interest

Perry is clearly ring hunting and feels Edmonton is a good choice for it, I'd pick them over Toronto right now too

Yeah. I’d love him on the Leafs but the Leafs just don’t have it this year.

If not for Matthews we’re probably closer to Ottawa. We’ll make the playoffs but the team just isn’t good enough to contend this year.

Too many things wrong to fix over the deadline so the best thing to do is wait till the offseason.

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Imaging Kane and Perry stirring up crap after the whistle

[DingDongCharlie]

Who comes out though? Again, I love the forward group... I don't want to see any combo of Gagner, Ryan or Janmark eating nachos. Even Brown is great at the PK and has a role.

Janmark easily. He’s been a black hole offensively and takes bad penalties.

 

[Divine]

Edmonton - where the leagues outcasts go to get rehabilitated?

 

[Ragdoll]

good depth but like the leafs, all offense and still avg defense and goalie.
We seen it yr after yr. Until they significantly upgrade, its likely a 1st rd exit for oilers vs Avs, canucks, or vegas

Welp, I found PK Subban’s account.

Comments like these are lazy and outdated, Oilers have allowed 2 or fewer goals in 10 straight games and their defensive metrics are top 5 in every metric since the coaching change. Stupid take that’s not based in this reality at all.

Edit: it’s actually 11 straight games of allowing 2 or fewer goals.

Hey PK, it's 2024, not 2020.

You know you're in a good spot when this is a question

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

I'm somewhat conflicted, one of the few players I wholeheartly despise but he'll be a great fit on the bottom 6.

 

[Matty Sundin]

Who is exactly unlikeable across the league on the oilers?

Mcdavid? He gets boooed in away teams arena lately I noticed
Drais is hated by the media cause he’s always an asshole to them
Kane is Kane…
Nurse?
Perry

That 2011 Nucks teams was still a lot worse..

It really depends.

Kane/Perry had/have off ice issues
Draisaitl/Nurse are disliked for being dirty on the ice

 

[trellaine201]

Punchable face in the west. Can’t wait until hes rattled.
