[SteadyFreddie]

Have they said how much per year yet?

 

[Yarbles02]

Meh.

 

[Dead Ringers]

What a name.

 

[Paralyzer]

Decent Depth player. Hoping he'll grow this year with proper Coaching now. Be our Top 9 scoring threat that can PK. That'd be the wish at least.

 

[Highmarker]

Caggulia needs to learn how to bury the damn puck. Good player gets chances zero finish.

 

[PensandCaps]

Decent scoring depth for cheap. Probably good for 15 goals a year.

 

[Flamesjustwin]

Plan the parade!

 

[Filthy Dangles]

He's a very 'Meh' player but let's see if there's a nother level to hit for him. Until he shows and produces more I'm not sure how much of a longer term career he'll have in this league.

 

[DownGoesMcDavid]

Oilers have stunted his growth since DC left North Dakota.

Caggulia- Schmaltz- Boeser line was unreal!

Schmaltz and Boeser having a great start to an nhl career so far.

Comparing 1st rounder prospects to an undrafted one. Hmm I wonder why.

As they should be, they were both much better prospects.

Caggulia has done okay for being undrafted. he got 13 goals last year somehow with some of the worst finish / luck i've ever seen out of a player.

Caggiula was obviously the passenger on that line. Oilers have done lots of things wrong but this isn't one of them.

 

[hotcabbagesoup]

Caggiula is the man. A team hoping for sustained success needs a guy like him.

 

[Skinnyjimmy08]

VERY curious what this deal will be... im not a fan of him at all but I have a weird feeling they paid him well

 

[oilwave]

Good stuff. Useful guy with potential to become a real quality third liner imo.

Anything under 5 mill should be considered a win with our GM.

Yeah he's been stunted, all that time on McDavid, Draisaitl or Nugent-Hopkins wing.

Poor kid just never had a chance, so stunted.

[Highmarker]

i'm happy with that.

 

[McSpecial DraiBlend]

Good deal. Just finished his second season and had 13 goals. I'm happy with that for a bottom six player.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Yep, that’s a fair deal. As far as caphit goes that’s the same ballpark as guys like Bellemare, Ryan, Mackenzie, Clifford, Girgensons, and Lindberg.

Caggiula’s still really young with room to improve.

 

[InfinityIggy]

Seems like a pretty reasonable signing.

 

[CycloneSweep]

He is a replacement level player who actually makes McDavids numbers bad when they are paired up.

Maybe he will end up as a good player but right now he is a 4th liner at best.
