Jeff Jackson so thoroughly pantsing Ken Holland in that negotiation that he wound up Holland's boss is one of the funniest things to ever happen in Oilers history.

maybe, maybe not. They want a 1st rounder for Tanev alone. But as stated the problem is Campbell. Devils are in desperate need of a goalie and I can see them coughing up two first for Markstrom

If they were treating Brady, I'd expect him to say they aren't trading Brady. Now... I'd be surprised if they trade Brady instead of giving him the keys and doing whatever it took to get him to stay.
But that said, literally nothing gms say till after the trade deadline is anything but PR and negotiating tactics. And even most of it after the be TDL is PR and negotiating tactics.
Man could you imagine dating someone who still had their exes last name, paid attention to their work on a day to day basis, and posted about them on their social media?
Good Lord. Hopefully the sex is great because that sounds like a literal nightmare, even if she wasn't clearly unhinged.

Dumping Campbell opens up a sh** load. Absolutely sickening we are wasting that space and he is not even in the NHL

Imagine if we had more depth on defence. True three pairing depth. The ability to concentrate on specific areas goes through the roof. More overall skill from the backend meets all the requirements to win tight hockey games.
Pick and chose who has the tougher matchups, modulate time on ice on a game by game basis, control matchups in the defensive zone including coverage expectations, individualized set breakouts and offensive zone plays.
Look at Vegas. They have 3 absolute monster pairings including two number one defensemen.
Alec Martinez - Alexa Pietrangelo
Brayden McNabb - Shea Theodore
Nicolas Hague - Zach Whitecloud
Strengthen our third pairing so we can compete. One of Kulak or Desharnais needs to be replaced with a significant upgrade. It's the single obvious move that will improve the Edmonton Oilers the most in the postseason.
I don't think Ceci is going anywhere because he plays the right side. I don't think Tanev is all that much of an upgrade on Ceci.
The Nurse - Ceci pairing would have reduced ice time and easier matchups with a stronger third pairing at the team's disposal. The Ekholm - Bouchard pairing would absolutely improve.
Obviously an improved third pairing would take on more of the endeavor from the backend overall.

Dave Pagnotta says Jusse Saros wants $8M+ on his next contract.
We are riding and dying with Shhhhhkinner
Oh well, it is what it is

The Hot/Crazy Matrix is legit.No matter how hot it looks.
One of man's biggest conundrums.
I'd be looking to see a strong sample of Saros on a team that isn't the Predators (defensively conscious) before I would even think about that kind of deal.
Saros is a good goalie (I think), but that deal would have a whole lot of risk on it for a team that plays a looser game and are hoping to solve their goaltending problems in one shot. I'd even handicap it at more likely a deal like that totally flops than it is working out or even coming close to working out.

This feels like a deal the Sens will hand out, as Korpisalo didn't quite work out.

Besides this year, he has been a top 5 for a while
8 is still too much for a goalie. I would go 6 max
He's most likely looking at 7M. That's not too bad considering Gibson is making 6M. Markstrom is also making 6M

All those Oilers assets won’t even get you Markstrom alone with Campbell attached.
Kempe will magically be ready for Game 1 of the playoffs.

You’re pipe dreaming hard on this. I’d love to get those two though.

54 goals? Must've been the money!
Well that almost assuredly means we’re not trading for a goalie. A shrinking market means prices just went up…again.

Are you not discriminating against Provorov and all those who share his religious beliefs?
The player wouldn't wear a f***ing hockey jersey. If no one brought it up no one would have been aware of this so called incident to make a foolish ordeal out of it.
He never burnt someone's house down.
