Rumor: Rumors & Proposals Thread: National Reporters say EK65 to Edmonton in the Works; Local Reporters Scoff. JP Conclusion Near?

[belair]

Running a short handed roster when 11-7 is really the only thing that’s led to consistent success on this club to buy more time and excuse a loss or two in the meantime is rubbish.

Get rid of JP already, jfc

JP is the easiest player to move to offset salary this season though.

Maybe it’s something around Pulju and Barbashev.

If a trade for EK was happening they would have scratched him. Oh welp

not always. Tarasenko wasn’t.

Puck drop ain't for 3 hours. There's a bit of time yet to scratch him.

Whatever he says, do the opposite

Director of Pro Scouting brother Brad Holland on Oilers Now today:

- Acknowledged that theyre in a winning window for the next 3 years
- Mirrored Ken's stance on subtle moves are king
- Stauffer asked about Karlsson and while not addressing EK specifically, said big moves like that are offseason moves and you don't know how much they may disrupt team chemistry mid-season

 

[McDoused]

Damn you bob. Stop getting my hopes up.

Yes wouldnt want to interrupt that incredible Nurse-Ceci chemistry.

Predicting a huge anti-climax tomorrow when Puljujarvi is traded somewhere for a 4th rounder

I’ll take it if it means they aren’t running a shortened roster and have a bit more space at the TDL

Some chemistry has interesting side effects.

Not surprising what he said. Besides, what the heck are you guys hoping he will say, we are close on getting Karlsson?

If they were going to send some players down, they would've done that already. Doesn't make sense not doing it already if they know Yamamoto is playing already.

With Bob dropping bread crumbs about tomorrow and as this thread is approaching 80 pages, I started another one up.

Oh, so what you're saying is tomorrow is the day it happens?

 

[brentashton]

Oh, so what you're saying is tomorrow is the day it happens?

I think he says we’ve collectively filled a thread with nearly 2000 posts and basically said nothing, so time for a new thread to break the record.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Oh, so what you're saying is tomorrow is the day it happens?

I didn't say that, Bob did.

Something has to give though if Yamamoto is activated.

 

[Jumptheshark]

Maybe it’s something around Pulju and Barbashev.

I liked Barbashev until I had him in a stat heavy fant league and spent 3 months studying everything about him. Barbashev got off to a great start when the Blues had multiple injuries in their top 6. Since they started getting healthy and he has been moved back down into the bottom 6--while his overall numbers for the year look good--but when you do the 15/30/45 day look at his numbers you see a sever dip over the last 45 days

I bought a couple of these magazines from Wee Book Inn years ago. Funniest shit ever.
Wanna aquire more. I also have listened to a couple of their LP records, Radio Dinner album had a great Lennon satire track.

His first and third points are kind of contradicting. If you're in a winning window, then you should be willing to make big moves for a playoff run.

or we add a 4th and get a 7th in return

 

[Soundwave]

You can't keep Desharnais out of the lineup for much longer either though if the Oilers think that is some how the solution.

He's better defensively than Ceci, Broberg, Barrie, Kulak, Bouchard, and even at times Nurse, even though he has no business being better than them, it just is what it is.

Like if the plan is to scratch Desharnais and Holloway until the trade deadline or close to ride out thie Puljujarvi/Yamamoto crap as long as possible ... put down the crack pipe, Ken.

 

[Barrsy]

Wtf are you on? No one has suggested that, and it's a ridiculous take on your part.

You say "get em Bro"
Whats the cost you think is reasonable?
