Rumor: Rumors & Proposals Thread | Draft Day! Does Holland Improve the Team or Does He Nibble on His PB&J Sandwich?

[Faelko]

Okay so Yzerman didn’t qualify Kostin lol. Other than doing Holland a favour, what was the point of the trade?

That can’t be true.

and apparently it is…..lolol

I guess just doing Holland a favor. I originally thought Kostin was the price to buy out Yamamoto. Now Kostin can test the open market and see that his value is nowhere close to what his agent thinks it is.

 

[Magnum23]

What I meant was in the offseason if we decide to not go with a new RD

Haven’t been on here for months but when Yamo got traded I had to come back to check on you buddy lol. Super curious what your new name is gonna be lol

 

[McDrai]

That would be some 4D chess if the Oilers signed Kostin

IF this is actually true, there will be some crow eaten in that other thread..lol

He might see how tough it is to get money in this market and decide Edmonton was the best spot after all.

I'm hoping we do. That'd be the best thing ever

 

[McDNicks17]

Former Condors Max Gildon, would not mind offering him a 2way contract

Sucks to see how far Noel has fallen.

He was awesome in the OHL. I thought it would have been cool to pick him up back in the day since I think he and Taylor Hall's dads played on the same CFL team together.

 

[brentashton]

Could be wrong but isn’t McLeod part of the infamous 2018 world juniors pending 8…

That’s his brother, i beleive.

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

That’s his brother, i beleive.

That's who we are talking about. Jersey didn't qualify him and people want him here. I'd wait...

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Too small. I like trees who are mobile.

I don't care, guys that can play are better

 

[Mr Positive]

I don't think the Oilers do much. Maybe a league min deal.

The cap we cleared is meant for our extensions. We are in the same boat as the teams who let these RFAs go in the first place.

 

[McDNicks17]

(Those are the players that Detroit qualified)

Seems pretty official if Friedman is reporting it.

Wouldn't make sense for Detroit to not QO him and then sign him, so looking like he's on the market.

So your saying there’s a chance?

 

[Faelko]

Well, Cap Friendly has him as a UFA….lolol

so bizarre

[FlameChampion]

Well Kostin looks to be a free agent. Maybe we circle back.

Well Yzerman probably tried to sign him but realized it wasn’t worth it. Strange though because he probably knew how much he wanted.

Still wouldn’t be surprised to see him sign with TB or WSH.

Seems like multiple players involved in that didn't get QOs today. Wonder if somebody knows something.

 

[29Beast97Mode]

Holland out GMed Yzerman. Based.

They know the cap went up only 1 mil this year.

Here's Capfriendly's No QO list if anyone is curious: 2023 NHL Free Agents - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps


Colin White is an interesting name if they're looking for a right-handed winger. He's had really good defensive numbers over his career.

 

[5 14 6 1]

Kostin a UFA. Do the right thing Ken

 

[YakDavid]

I have a feeling Kostin is still asking too much and not getting the market at all. Maybe Detroit just didn’t want arbitration to happen and still is negotiating but it’s interesting too teams have now tried.

 

[FlameChampion]

Kostin a UFA. Do the right thing Ken

And do the right thing Klim

 

[Heavy Dee]

Janmark was smart to sign his offer.

Samorukov not qualified. Oilers won that trade
