The 1st penalty on Smith was a bit bogus since both guys had their sticks up pushing at each other they should have both gone off. On the 2nd one it would great to know what Smith told the ref .... mike Smith up...would be fun if it can make it past the censors.

The refs have been good to Ryan he just got away with a trip behind the Oilers net and he's also used his stick to slash pretty liberally the whole game.

Honestly, anyone that really thinks the team would be better off without EK should have their hockey fan membership revoked.

Who ever suggested that though? At worst, people might argue the cap/budget space along with the assets gained by trading him might outweigh what he can bring particularly if he continues to have injury issues.

I think folks think the EK trade would be mostly for futures, so the immediate aftermath would look like 1-3 seasons of what we’re witnessing this evening.

Wasn’t Claesson someone we had to protect for the expansion draft? And people were worried about losing him.

Ok, but people suggesting that wouldn't be claiming the team would immediately be better.
