Oilers acquire Mark Fraser from Leafs for Cam Abner and Hartikainen.

the end of an era

 

[BonMorrison]

Don't know anything about Abner.

Hartikainen looked decent but he's in the KHL now, isn't he?

 

[BertCorbeau]

We actually got something fro Fraser other than a 7th?

Sweeeeet!

^ Edit - yes he's in Russia

 

[mpleafan]

Woo? Dont know how I feel because I try to not watch the oilers as much as I can.

 

[gustavsson50]

Good luck to fraser. Anyone know anything about the players in return??

 

[ACC1224]

Can someone give a quick overview of the guys coming in?

Cap dump?

No issues here. Fraser likely peaked last season. Reverted back to AHL form this year.

 

[SprDaVE]

Cool. Teemu Hartikainen is a solid checking line prospect. Not sure if he'll have much of a future here though.

 

[Judas Tavares]

I remember Hartekainen being groomed as Kulemin type for Edmonton.

 

[leafsfuture]

Hartokainen is a top 6 forward in the KHL, returned there this year after 3 seasons split between Edmonton and the AHL. A pretty good AHL scorer too, never really did much when he got called up, but has some potential. Still just 23 years old.

And despite what Fraser did for us last year, I would have traded him for a bag of pucks.

 

[BertCorbeau]

Hartikainen is a good 4th line energy agitator IIRC .. Although he's in Russia now, I wonder if the Leafs simply retain his rights?

Not sure about Abney (edit) looks like he'll be another set of fists for the Marlies

 

[JackJ]

Two more to go.

 

[Ramboshaw]

Love his move!! I live close to Edmonton so I watched Teemu play a few times, was quite good but obviously young and needed some fix ups. He left for the KHL it appears, I thought he was with the Barons... Hmm... As long as they can get him to come back to North America this is a great move.

 

[I Am The Stig]

I wish Fraser luck, great guy and battled hard despite his gaffs. Hope he does well in Edmonton.

As for the return....who?

 

[Bluelines]

Can someone give a quick overview of the guys coming in?

Both grit guys, one is a fighter and the other is a hard nosed bottom six grinder energy type guy with a little scoring upside.

 

[I Believe]

Good for Fraser, he deserves to be in the NHL.

 

[definedMF]

Ahh this worries me a tad bit, i'm questioning depth atm, after Ranger we have... Brenan(Who I think should get a look).
Anyone know how this Hartikainen is ? Its like if heard his name before...

 

[Loosie]

So we pretty much said 'Here, take Fraser, give us any two scrubs we don't care'

 

[Offspring]

Really stocking up that AHL cupboard I see.

 

[Finnpin]

Hartikainen: bull in a china shop.

 

[Shanty]

Abney is at best an AHL tough guy, and I mean at BEST.

Teemu is a Komarov replacement.

 

[JackJ]

Paving the way for Bolland.
