Rumor: Oilers look to move a player with "term" for player who has a different "ingredient"

[BoldNewLettuce]

It sounds like lucic.....whom I like.

I think he will rebound.

Look at orpik....

 

[HenrikW]

so is this Lucic or is it one of the dmen not named Larsson?

Klefbom is probably the only guy that fits that criteria with any real value.
sekera maybe but a team has to be pretty confident he can return to form considering his age, salary, and how awful he was after coming back from that injury

In all fairness he was playing with a knee-brace. He was complaining how it vastly affected his mobility

 

[HenrikW]

Pulju has gotten worse since he was drafted. Benson is a long shot. Yamamoto will either be a top 6 guy or completely bust. We are so far away from decent wingers.

Egregious piece of information. JP was +2 5v5 pts/60 with both McDavid/Draisaitl. There's plenty of stats to suggest he's doing well. Can't fault the guy for being stuck on Strome's line with anchor Lucic for more then half the season, playing limited minutes and no PP.

 

[Chayos]

Our defence after Klefbom is moved for a one dimensional winger is a much, much bigger yikes.

Benning And Yamamoto for Hoffman might work for both teams. Ott gets some cheap young players and the oil get the shooter we need.

Oilers look to move a player with "Lucic" for player who has a different "Lucic"

 

[BobMarleyNYR]

Diet John Moore and a 3rd for Draisaitl and Klefbom.

yeah he obviously wasnt the same player. any team making a play for him would have to be convinced he can bounce back obviously

 

[Rick C137]

Brent Seabrook has that ingredient you're looking for. I'm pretty sure he makes his own butter that will knock your socks off.

 

[Riptide]

Stauffer is connected to the Oilers and often used as a sounding board with fans before a move is made (He discussed speculation/possibility of Eberle and Hall trades in advance of their departures). I'd wager this is based around a Klefbom trade, myself.

I'm not sure how Edmonton trades Klefbom and ends up a better team for it. Unless they add significantly, they're not going to get a true #1D for him... at which point, the question arises, what's the point? Wouldn't it make more sense to just try to add to what they currently have vs tinkering while not actually addressing needs?

There are things I think Edmonton could do. Add some speed, find a couple guys who might be expendable on their current teams who can play, but also provide a little more (Sheary, Comeau, McGinn, Z.Smith, etc)...

Edmonton has some high end talent, but they need more skilled/quality depth. That's only going to come from two places - kids stepping up or via FA/trade. Edmonton just needs to decide what they have and what they need/want. Tough places for them to be in.

Oilers need Bodker, Grabner, miles wood types.

 

[Brett44]

Andrighetto + Timmins

For

Lucic+RNH +10th

Funny.

All of these bonhead trade proposals where the oilers get completely fleeced just to rid themselves of Lucic’s contract. How about Colorado gives us Tyson Jost+And Soderberg and we give you a 7th round pick?

Sharks would love to get rid of Bodker. He’s been absolute garbage for them.

 

[Freudian]

I could see a Klefbom+ trade for Barrie/Krug.

 

[McJesusSaves97]

I think moving Klef could be the last big mistake PC makes

 

[CartographerNo611]

Gonna trade Benning and a 4th for Reaves rights, just watch lmao.

 

[Dan Kelly]

Diet John Moore and a 3rd for Draisaitl and Klefbom.

Lucic and a 3rd for Krieder and Zuccarello.

 

[Estlin]

Krug, McQuaid and Cehlarik for Klefbom and #10 in this year’s draft.

 

[torniojaws]

Lucic for Larkin?

 

[Richard Banger]

All of these bonhead trade proposals where the oilers get completely fleeced just to rid themselves of Lucic’s contract. How about Colorado gives us Tyson Jost+And Soderberg and we give you a 7th round pick?

The reason why they post these proposals is because the Oilers GM is a moron and would make one of these "bonehead" trades.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Krug, McQuaid and Cehlarik for Klefbom and #10 in this year’s draft.

God awful. You aren’t even taking Lucic and we still get hammered in value.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Krug, McQuaid and Cehlarik for Klefbom and #10 in this year’s draft.

McQuaid is a dimeadozen bottom2D (oilers have plenty) and Cehlarik is nothing more than an American League guy. So basically Torey Krug for Klefbomb and the 1oth pick....

 

[DudeWhereIsMakar]

McDavid for Ehlers

 

[karnige]

I'm rnh is staying. I think he plays with mcdavid they have great chemistry. imo lucic needs to go. somehow.
