Rumor: Rumours & Proposals | Lock It Up, Apparently We're Set.

Meltdown in 5...4...3...2...1...

We'll already get extra space when Sekera gets move to the LTIR for in-season acquisitions.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

So dumb.

I know you think its "forcing them into the lineup" but it makes sense if you need to move guys up the depth chart

specifically if pouliot could legit end up a 4 million dollar AHler after camp.

Oh I know haha. But just the fact he says more flexibility in the season than offseason, I'm sure it's gonna blow this joint up Bunch of drama queens in this board.

It would make sense if we had any depth on the wings but we have a hilarious lack of it.

If there's no UFA or trade lined up after this then it's a stupid move.

If they're not going to use that extra cap space, then there's nothing wrong with bringing Pouliot to camp and letting him fight for a spot with those guys, instead of basically forcing Puljujarvi/Caggiula on to the top line, and having absolutely no depth to deal with injuries.

They need to sign someone to replace Pouliot, even if it's a third or fourth liner.

As expected.

Oilers going to overpay Leon really bad which isn't as justified as McDavid at all.

We're not getting any savings for Sekera if/when he goes on LTIR because we wont be close to the actual cap due to needing to save space for rookie bonuses.

 

[McSuper]

McDavid is going to take a discount equal to the cap hit of buying out Pouliot . So Chia can add piece to win the cup .

RNH come on down your the next to go on the auction block .

 

[Raab]

Anyone have the cost on Pouliots buy out?

lol? Where does it say it's for overpaying Draisaitl? He's saying it'll be used during the season rather than offseason. So Draisaitl is being overpaid in the season?

 

[Apathetic]

Anyone have the cost on Pouliots buy out?

1.333 for next 4 years.

 

[Spawn]

Anyone have the cost on Pouliots buy out?

1.33M per year until 20-21

Save 2.66 next two seasons, costs 1.33M the two seasons after.

 

[Raab]

Not to bad, still would have been nice if he was off the books in 2 years.

It's called using foresight.

Players $$ goes down during the year from pro-rated cap, so the Oilers probably only need to leave about 4M for bonuses + 5M for a deadline acquisition. EDIT: Made a Sekera point but Spawn made a good counter, see below.

That leaves about 9M for Leon Draisaitl and Mark Spector in an article yesterday "guessed" he'd get 9.2M on an 8 year deal.

Based on the Bob Stauffer teases on Brandon Pirri, who probably gets around 1M, I'd say Oilers are willing to cave to at least 8M on him.

He's probably worth 6.5-7 based on comparables but he just happened to have the same agent as Tarasenko, the one guy at 7.5 off an RFA deal.

There is no savings on Sekera being on LTIR. You need to go over the cap in order to get savings for a player on LTIR. There is no way for us do to that in season because of rookie bonuses.

To MTL: RNH

To EDM: Brendan Gallagher or Andrew Shaw

Good point, they won't even make it to the cap.

Maybe I'm wrong, but it feels like Chiarelli is acting like McDavid's deal kicks in this year and not next - but then again, he spent $$ on Russell on a deal he thinks (and I say this because I disagree) will be movable in a few seasons.

 

[Not Robin Brownlee]

Stauffer tweets that stuff, then he logs on to HF OIL and has a laugh.

 

[nexttothemoon]

Buy out Pouliot... trade RNH for picks/prospects.

Sign Jagr+Thornton+Williams.

Plan the parade.

I think you just outed yourself Bob

Bob used to post in here once and awhile when he was still with 1260 using his real name.

I assume he still comes in here, but just trolls for laughs.

 

[Mowzie]

If the writing is in the wall with Hopkins, I hope he's given every opportunity to put up points next to McDavid so we aren't trading a 40 point third line center who can't win a faceoff, but rather a top line winger who's good for 70 points.

Time to manage your assets Peter.

[oilers89]

Id look to Carolina maybe.
Lindholm +
Would that work? what could the plus be

The Taylor Hall trade happened one year ago today.
