Confirmed Trade: [EDM/OTT] Tyler Ennis for 2021 5th round pick

[SmoggyTwinkles]

Good pickup for Edmonton.

 

[Captain Controversy]

Remember when Ennis was buffalos best player ? Lol

 

[dss97]

Guarantee he ends up signing long term there.

I can’t imagine he gets anymore than 2 years.

 

[Qward]

Ennis sucks, good trade

14g 33pts for a player barely making above league minimum.
That is 4g and 9pts more than AA who cost two seconds.

 

[Sensin5]

Was hoping we'd keep Ennis and sign him. Really good player - great defensive awareness, tenacious, good speed, passable hands and excellent on PK. Also plays well with others.

Should do really well in Edmonton. You will realize how much you needed a guy like him.

 

[Cup or Bust]

Good low cost depth trade for the Oilers.

to be fair, AA is an RFA while Ennis will be a UFA

 

[GoJetsGo55]

Nice that they picked up some grit.

No?

 

[Scrantonicity 2]

Why bother trading him at that price? You still need to be somewhat competitive, no? There will truly be no one showing up for Sens games.

 

[Jumptheshark]

for a 5th it is worth the gamble

 

[LTIR]

People really crapping on Edmonton for grabbing a depth scoring option for a 5th in 2021?

This thread is much more positive than Hfoil Ennis thread
Some Oilers fan(s) seem to be displeased with this deal for some reason.
Guess they prefer Gagner, Russell, Khaira etc

Ennis isn't bad, but please don't try him with mcdavid, it won't work.

AA is going with McDavid with Kassin or Neal being the third wheel or Leon D being double shifted

Ennis will be with Archibald and Sheehan

Good deal considering the Flyers gave up the exact same for Nate Thompson

The thing is...Nate Thompson fills a clear role there.

Ennis...he's one of those, "produces well on a bad team" sort of players. Though in the case of Edmonton...they've obviously got extremely limited cap flexibility, and it's not like they're loaded with quality wingers ahead of him i guess. Maybe it works out somehow. He's just not the sort of "depth" most teams are looking at for a playoff run, because he's going to be a tiny offensive player out of their element in real bottom-6 minutes and role.

I'll never understand why Ennis is so underrated. Dude can play in all situations, on either wing, up and down the lineup, and has always been a solid producer.

I dont think one person has bought a ticket to go see him play, family perhaps?

currently he is being underrated because the Oilers just traded for him.

 

[Kranix]

He's a hometown boy

 

[snipes]

On McDavids wing tonight

No... Ennis is depth on a line that plays his style... forechecking, fast and grindy.

 

[Ctrain2k]

Anyone know where he played in Ottawa?
