Rumor: Oilers Targeting Chychrun or Ekholm, Gavrikov is the Fall Back Plan

[Bryanbryoil]

Either Chychrun or Ekholm would be huge adds. I wonder if we are trying to move one or both of Yamamoto and Kulak to free up the additional space needed to add Chychrun or Ekholm?

But I like Kulak

Jakob Chychrun, Jakob Chychrun, Jakob Chychrun!

So it only took a 4th round for Arizona to take 25% of 10M?

Sounds like Puljujarvi asked for a trade

 

[Da McBomb]

Well good to know Holland is awake now... next few days should be exciting.

 

[dustrock]

I think we're maybe getting a bit worked up if we are thinking of adding both Ekholm and Chychrun.

Holland getting one would be a big win I think.

Poverty franchise

Stauffer said Kenny may want Ekholm more but Chychrun is easier to acquire

Excited to read another thread full of posters drawing lines in the sand about that extra second round pick that is just too much to give up for quality.

I think I'd prefer Ekholm over Chychrun but not going to complain either way.

Makes sense because old. Seriously though, I could understand that.

Broberg needs a little more seasoning.
Kulak at 3LD is nice for the playoffs.

One of Bettman's laundering operations.

But I like Kulak

He needs to stop throwing chest high muffins at the goalie with no traffic when McDavid is on the ice. He kills so many plays per game. He’s a passable 5-6 dman

Ekholm is more up his alley. Problem is fitting his whole cap in.

I will dance outside in my undies if that happens. It won't though.

 

[McTonyBrar]

I'm fine with Chychrun or Ekholm

Yeah, really pathetic stuff, but it's only 25% of like $2.9M I believe is how it works out

That where Bettman keeps all the Speed

 

[Macblender]

Ekholm is more up his alley. Problem is fitting his whole cap in.

And chychrun cap legit let’s us target Karlsson in the off-season

 

[5 14 6 1]

Add Ekholm and Karlsson, f*** it.

 

[Trafalgar Sadge Law]

Chychrun over Ekholm for me. Younger cheaper better even if it costs more in trade.

but not super fragile expialidocious like Chychrun

That's how I feel. I see Ekholm as the better fit but with the more problematic salary to make it work. Either would suffice but I prefer Ekholm for playoff hockey.

Stauffer suggesting a 2nd for Bjugstad. Eww
