Friedman: Edmonton looking to move Matt Hendricks; Minnesota a possibility?

[57special]

The days when EDM's first was a carrot to be dangled are gone. A first in the 15-20 range is nice, but not worth sending a player like Brodin away. I would hope that the Wild decide to do something more decisive than getting a Hendricks, but if they do decide to acquire him it will be for a B prospect. I don't see much going the other way.

Any RHD B prospects in your system?

Why add double the cap when we dont need the player?

I don't think the hockey gods should listen to any request out of Edmonton after giving them the McDavid lottery.

Well we did get the Pizza Boy at 4 this draft

Doesnt fit for the oilers. Oilers will look for a late pick or a player they can toss on the farm. Due to DDs contract and lack of production if the habs want us to take that contract they are adding a 2nd

He'd be a great fourth liner on any team looking to make a push for the playoffs, for that reason i think EDM hang onto him until the deadline. The roster is very very young. Particularly in that portion of the roster. Caggulia, Pitlick, Slepyshev.
