No reason for Ottawa to do that. Puljujarvi is the piece they will ask for. Then they can ice a vaunted Puljujarvi-Paajarvi Oilers washout line.

can someone explain to me where the Ceci talk is coming from? Also--any deal for him we send back loonie for loonie at this point in time

He gave up on Wheeler in his third season even though he had numbers that would embarass Puljujarvi. He gave up on Seguin, was willing to let Kessel walk for picks he had no idea would've been that high.

They don't even mention Spooner and no one notices he's missing.
Chia turned Eberle into a guy who's being replaced in the lineup by Gambradella.
Bravo.
Spooner not at practice today, neither is Benning or Yamo. Probably maintenance.
Was on Stauffer show today with Friedman, Stauff asking if Ceci may be available for the Oilers and that Chia likes him.

Personally I think the Oilers need a forward instead of focussing on a multitude of depth dmen.
They are likely going to trade away a forward asset (not that they have a lot in terms of decent forward assets beyond the big 3)... but they are going to further weaken the tiny forward depth they have by shipping out a forward for another mediocre dman.

At this point Chiarelli is desperate and swinging for the fences on Hitchcock playing 2-1 hockey to save his job. He knows he's completely f***ed the forwards. The play is to give Hitch like 20 D and pray some combination thereof + playing boring hockey + riding McDavid into the ground at 29 minutes a night can get a wild card spot.
I agree but keep hearing they are targeting guys like Muzzin, Ceci, Faulk, Pesce, another top 4 D. Seem intent on building the D once and for all, next year have Bouchard coming, maybe Persson. I imagine Benning and Sekera are as good as gone from here. Who knows if they resign Petrovic who is a 5/6/7 anyway.

We have enough depth defensemen and that is without even having to dip into the minors with guys like Bear, Lagesson, Lowe, etc. Meanwhile Nuge gets stuck with at least one struggling winger daily.

Why would they assign him the guy has been lighting it up since recalled and his AHL numbers this year are stupid

To the best of my memory he is smallish, can't skate worth a crap but scores goals. I'd claim him simply because he can shoot the damn puck. Toss him on the LW with RNH and Puljujarvi/Chiasson.

Pirri goes down to keep Zykov off waivers. Vegas seems to have some faith in him.

6 goals an 9 points in 7 games and he gets sent back. The Oilers should be so lucky with their call-ups.

He'd be 5th in goal scoring for the Oilers only playing 7 games how sad is that.
