Rumor: Rumors & Trade Proposals Thread | How About the RW Kenny?

[McTonyBrar]

Its easy to think that when you dont understand the numbers and think Ekholm and Barrie are comparable level D.

One is a #2. One is a #5. Okay. What is Nexttothemoon talking about?

 

[Cloned]

Bertuzzi? Hmmmm

Stop hmmmming like Stauffer, Tony.

 

[Oilhawks]

yikes

Regressed into his brother over the years

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

9 more till shut down time

 

[belair]

yikes

Granlund will turn a lot of those numbers around in Pittsburgh. He's an example of a guy who can touch a lot of parts on a lineup. Plays a lot of minutes in all situations. I think he gives the Pens some flexibility in their top six.

I'd be really interested to see why his shot rates have dropped in recent years though. I remember him having an absolute rocket of a shot.

Can I get the Cole’s Notes for today?

Not a single person hey. Alright, good luck here.

 

[Faelko]

Not a single person hey. Alright, good luck here.

Not much of note.

Rumour is the D is set.
Holland will make 1 maybe 2 deals for forwards.

Thats about it, names like Bertuzzi and Bennett floating around.

 

[780il]

Anyone got a right handed Ekholm we can trade for to pair with Nurse???

 

[MessierII]

Carolina should’ve looked at Barrie. Would’ve been a great fit.

Oilers were looking for an upgrade. Not a great fit for two buyers.

I'll try my best but might miss something.

Oilers looking at forwards - Bertuzzi, Bennett and Vrana mentioned
Not actively looking for a defenseman, waiting for other teams to approach them.

Maybe others can fill in the source of rumours as the NeoCitrin has hit me hard.

I mean once we traded him. Nashville -> Carolina

 

[Tarus]

Bertuzzi? Hmmmm

really hope so

Can never have enough bigger power forward types to complement the skill guys.

 

[lakai17]

Go for Provorov, if not go Klingberg. We need offense from the back

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

The way Connor is playing... load up more. Come on.... Just do it

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Are we connected to anyone?

 

[Wreckus]

Holland seems well rested after taking those naps before the Ekholm trade.

I would love Bennett, twist the knife for flames fans.

 

[780il]

Sell the farm. Just do it

Top 6 F and someone to play with Nurse

I'd put money on us looking at Klingberg.

Namestnikov might be an interesting option, too.

I would love Bennett, twist the knife for flames fans.

I don't see how the money would work, but that'd be fun.

Based on Holland’s intermission comments, sounds like we are only doing 1 more deal, and its a depth deal, and its dollars In dollars out where we’ll be sending a guy down to AHL to make room.

To me, that says Bjugstadt. And thats it.

Definitely would like to see Bertuzzi or another big D but if we’re reading the tea leaves, at least my read is Bjugstadt.

Probably but alot can change between now and 1pm our time friday.

 

[McBooya42]

Finally!





I still want to see Bertuzzi there....

Dreger says Bertuzzi and Bjugstad.

 

[Wreckus]

Dreger says Bertuzzi and Bjugstad.

I don't see Bertuzzi coming because of the salary/cap and Yzerman.

 

[Raab]

have a feeling Ekholm lands in Edmonton at 1133am. Flight CYO601 on flightaware

Seriously? And we wonder why people don’t like the fishbowl.
