Would a reunion be welcomed

Wasn't there some report that a part of Petry's level dropping is due to personal issues due to his family living the US instead of Canada? Because if that's the case I don't think he'd waive his NMC to go even further from his family and still in Canada...he wants to move to US.

This is a lateral and down move, lateral in the sense Petry would be a better defensive player than Barrie, and Allen slightly better than Koskinen, but more cap and term with each player that it would be a downward move for the Oilers... They don't need another backup goalie, or right shot D Man, they Need a solid non injury prone Goalie, and possibly a 3rd pairing LHD, and if cap permitting maybe a middle 6 f that can do a little scoring while playing a mean game... So No, HARD PASS on that deal period....

I honestly have no clue. There may have been in which case the trade is DOa. Just thought it would be an interesting trade idea.

So what is Edmonton's motivation? More importantly, NTC's Petry's motivation.

Edmonton declines. Take out the first and they probably still decline. The Petry contract carries a lot of risk and they already have 2 better goalies under contract for next year so taking Allen is a negative.
