This gives us a look at patrick as a middle 6 guy for 2 years while we shore up our bottom 6 and before we have to start paying out any big contracts. A lityle inspired by KK offer sheet but ive been thinking offer sheeting patrick as good idea since before season end.

Koskinen is a cap dump all by himself and requires a 2nd pick just to take him - so you adding Olofsson makes me question your Sabre fandom

Yeah, it doesn't work for Edmonton either. I don't see this happening.

Koskinen's contract is actually helping edmonton as soon as the season starts. i more-so see edmonton using his contract to hold some space in LTIR and then trading him for somebody useful close to the deadline. There is also no lack of wingers in edmonton now.
