The hunt is over?

 

[Mike Jones]

There's the bold move right there folks.

Does this make the Oilers favorites to win the cup?

 

[Draiskull]

I knew Chia would Cave!

 

[Mike Jones]

I knew Chia would Cave!

A simple "like" doesn't do this justice.

Well done!

 

[Janks]

Pencil the Oilers in for 1st in the West now.

This could be a way of adding a body on D anticipating a trade of someone else.

It took all the hockey ops, management, scouts and board of directors to make this decision.

GENERIC PARADE COMMENT

It took all the hockey ops, management, scouts and board of directors to make this decision.

With Lowe and MacTavish still kicking around it probably did - not to mention training staff, bar tenders, team dentists, mechanics, and so on and so on.

That would be an Oilers thing to do considering this guy is listed as a Center.

 

[TFHockey]

So.. a center is moving out? Spooner?

Given Chia's previous moves this could be the one predicted by the prophets.

Nice spelunking Chiarelli.

 

[Mike Jones]

In all seriousness it just might. Cave is the kind of player who may actually work out well in Edmonton.

The Brad Hunt era ended for Edmonton a few years ago.

Does this make the Oilers favorites to win the cup?

Yes, no doubt

A quick look at Wikipedia shows that he was signed by Boston April 4th. April 15 PC was fired.

Obviously a guy PC once liked and at least this time the guy isn't making 3mil too much

 

[Rich Nixon]

Oooh do Weise next.

 

[BonMorrison]

The Brad Hunt era ended for Edmonton a few years ago.

But what about Dryden Hunt?

If the Canucks/Capitals/Coyotes had claimed Colby Cave it would have made for an excellent tongue twister.
