Right shot centre, intriguing he’s only -1 on the Sharks.

 

[McDoused]

Why would the sharks use a retention slot on a guy making league minimum?

 

[orange drop]

If he can win faceoffs and can kill penalties sure

 

[Gecklund]

Sharks aren’t retaining but other than that sure

Why are the sharks retaining on a guy who makes league Min?

 

[Jared Dunn]

Sharks aren't using their last retention slot for that

 

[pth2]

The retention slot alone is worth a 5th...

Better to just send a contract back and up the pick to a 4th or maybe a 3rd depending on who we are sending back. Ryan , Janmark , Brown or Gagner

 

[Davo Ikinzom]

Yeah.. uhh... no thanks.

 

[DG93]

He makes league minimum, so no retention, but yeah sure I'd take a 5th for him. Guy is a solid PKer but is probably below replacement level at evens as a 4C...

 

[TheNumber4]

He’d have to be retained 50% to have any value. He’d be like a very last on the list priority addition for the Oilers. So like if we have used all our cap for priority upgrades maybe we squeeze him in a depth piece.

 

[Juxtaposer]

No thanks, rather just keep Carpenter.

Why would we up the pick to send back a buyable contract? Never mind that the ones you mentioned are good depth for a playoff run.

Good point.

He has been killing penalties, his faceoff % is a bit low. He seems to be a gritty team player, something that could compliment Oilers 4th line.

Right shot centre, intriguing he’s only -1 on the Sharks.

He has a small NHL sample size, but I think as a rotate in during this long stretch the Oilers will need to add another forward for their durability.

I was looking at ways the Oilers could add a forward without taking away. This appeared to be the only scenario.

I’m don’t know the rules on retention. It just appeared to be an option to add a bottom six player while the Oilers are going through a stretch that durability may be an issue.

That makes no sense. Any one of those could be waived and buried at full cap hit. Unless another team is taking Browns bonus there is no point to burying those players.

Doesnt Browns bonus stay with edmonton regardless

 

[Couch Rooted]

Carpenter clears waivers

I didn’t see anything about him being on waivers. As far as I’m aware he’s still up with the Sharks.

He is but he’s cleared before
Rangers and Sharks
He’s not that good anymore

Ok well I guess I’ll have to keep up the search from my armchair.

Probably, but there has been some conflicting reports from the media on it. There was one report that basically said it depends on the fine print in the contract about when the bonus is paid - if it was when he met the conditions it belongs to Edmonton. If it's at the end of the season, it could go to another team. But again, that was one article and I have no idea how legit it was.
