I'm looking forward to turning Luke Hughes into Justin Schultz 2.0
He's actually pretty good defensively btw.

3 goals, 3 shots. Sustainable.3-game goal streak for Athanasiou in LA.
It's a shame he didn't work out here. His goal tonight was a beauty.

Hughes will be the consensus soon. He's destroying right now.
And just think how much fun it would be if Canucks fans had to put up with us having the best Hughes brother.
Lose for Hughes. Sour for Owen Power. I got nothing....for Brendt Clarke
Only way we will ever get a #1D
Doesn't mean the goals didn't count.

Ah so we're back to these discussions.

In typical Oiler fashion it's going to turn out that replacing AA with Turris/JP/Barrie/Kahun and Ennis was the wrong move and we should have re-signed him with all that money.Doesn't mean the goals didn't count.
13. I’d heard earlier in the off-season that the Oilers and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins were getting close on an extension, but that’s gone quiet for a while now.
Suck it Chia and MacT!!
OEL perhaps.
That OEL had a very limited amount of teams he was willing to go to? Pretty sure Edmonton wasn't on that list.I was against adding OEL this summer but so far this year he has no looked great . Still the cost was high
1st = Holloway
Klefbom
Wouldn’t have signed Barrie
Maybe could have added Chiasson
They said before x-mas that the talks were going on hold and they'd revist at a later date. Seems both sides waiting on clarity of the flat salary cap eraIs this a surprise? They decided to push talks to later.

'yah, but it wasn't obvious, and its not obvious, its only 4 games into the season. Neal scored like 15 goals in October last year and then went cold for the rest of the year, Tampa had a terrible start last year and looked bad, and won the cup. Its not good to get too low and too high at the start of the season ANYTHING can happen. Hell, one year we LEAD our division at xmas and didn't make the playoffs. ( I forget which year, but it was a while ago) Its a marathon, not a race.In typical Oiler fashion it's going to turn out that replacing AA with Turris/JP/Barrie/Kahun and Ennis was the wrong move and we should have re-signed him with all that money.
And everyone and their dog will tell us how obvious that was an how stupid the Oilers are.
Again.

It’s working out for the Oilers because at this rate you could sign him for league minimum.They said before x-mas that the talks were going on hold and they'd revist at a later date. Seems both sides waiting on clarity of the flat salary cap era
my favourite stat for that year is Ryan Smyth leading the team in goals with 31 and getting 53 points in 53 games. Talk about ripping the heart out of the team. That trade set us up for the decade plus of struggle and ineptness that haunts us today.2006-07 I believe. We expected to suck after the exodus, but the team did well to start, and got in to a tie for first in the division by Xmas then completely fell apart going 14-28-5 from there (granted most of that was the gigantic losing streak after the Smyth trade).
Maybe Holland learned a lesson from the Kassian extension.It’s working out for the Oilers because at this rate you could sign him for league minimum.
Dubois and Roslovic demanded a trade. Find a way to get them both
I'd trade Jones for Roslovic. I think we lose Jones to the draft anywayI'd go after Roslovic. That would allow us to more easily play Turris in the top 6.
RNH-Draisaitl-Yamamoto
Kahun-McDavid-Turris
Ennis-Roslovic-Puljujarvi
Archibald-McLeod-Kassian

I just assume he's looking at big name UFA's and providing an update. Not sure the update we got in Edmonton really went anywhere other than EdmontonYeah so I’m not sure why Mr 31 Thoughts is making a big deal about it.
