Description
If Holland hadn't screwed up this off-season the team would be looking a lot different. Obviously the cap hits would be different than what they were offered from the teams they actually signed with but this shows what kind of team we could have had with the cap space and players in our system before this off-season.

                What could have been....was there any reports that Murray or any of these guys were even interested in signing in Edmonton. Just bc you think your team should have signed the player doesnt mean that player wanted to sign with your team

                That is not what saying... Just bc you think your team should have signed them in hindsight, no idea either way if these players had any interest in the Oilers regardless if the team did or not.

                You can say the oilers should have offered them contracts, they could have and they didnt want to go there. That is all im saying. Players have to want to play and sign in Edmonton, no way of knowing one way or the other. Just playing devils advocate with these train of thoughts.

                I don't think you understand the concept of UFAs. There is no reason to think that those UFAs would have signed for Oilers, especially for the same money. And please Larsson was a UFA, it didn't matter one bit if he Oilers had protected him or not.
                I'll agree with you that the Oilers made some real gaffes last summer. Just for long term cap reasons, I don't like Hyman, RHN, Ceci, Barrie signings...that's 18m plus.
