Don't think Oilers give up assets to move Talbot

If this Elliott for Talbot trade happens, Fletcher is an idiot. There has to be something more to it. But then again, Fletcher loves making pointless trades!

Both contracts expire at end of the year don't they? I'll take a free 3rd round pick to have Talbot sit on the bench.

Just saw on TSN it is actually being discussed per Dreger. Oilers need to free up cap room to get Sekera off IR. We have the room so we may as well take on the extra cap space and snag a pick.

Talbot has no trade value. He makes $4,000,000 and he is UFA at season's end.

They will have to eat 50 % of his salary which makes no sense.

Elliot who makes $1,300,000 less than Talbot and also is an UFA at season's end. The Oilers will have to give something up.

It will be Talbot and like a 7th for Elliott (50% retained)

If people didn't know Talbot and Hart train together in the offseason. Hart even called Talbot before his first NHL game this would be getting a mentor that Hart knows well, and I really don't see Oilers moving assets to get out of cap trouble when they can easily waive Manning and send Puljujarvi to AHL to free up enough room

And I have both Manning and Puljujarvi in the AHL, the Oilers still pay $1,250,000 to have Manning on the Farm.

So yes the Oilers will have to trade a pick and probably retain salary to get a deal done.

Sending Manning and Puljujarvvi down would free up a bit of cap space but not nearly enough to fit Sekera back on to the roster, they're really gonna have to trade someone out. I heard they were looking to move Petrovic and Manning but no one was interested.

Pointless? Free draft pick is pointless?
Elliot sucks.
Talbot sucks.
Talbot salary > Elliott's salary.
Added Talbot salary = 3rd round pick.

If anything this is stupid from an Oilers POV. They are wasting a 3rd rounder simply to save what......max 500k.........

There is zero chance we get a 3rd.

I agree. But a Talbot for Elliott trade could happen. it'll just depend on what else is included.

Who cares? Shouldn't you care? Your team is the one getting the extra for doing absolutely nothing.

Fletcher was brought in because Hextall was supposedly doing nothing. All Fletcher has done is make meaningless trades.

Maybe he should trade Ghost and a 1st for Talbot. God knows the only think wrong with the Flyers right now is Ghost, if we could somehow unload him, STANLEY CUP HERE WE COME!

Do you think the 1st rounder is enough of an incentive to get the Oilers to take on such an awful player?

And the Flyers would have to take Lucic and Spooner and Manning.

Haha I would very much hope so.

In reality though I think your initial idea is probably closest to reality and wouldn't be shocked if it happens. Paying a 3rd rounder to dump Talbot and clear $$ isn't that high of a price for EDM, and though the last thing the Flyers need is ANOTHER mediocre goalie, Talbot and Hart are clearly close off of the ice, and if Talbot's presence helps Hart develop further its a deal that would work for PHI as well.

Oh, I didn't realize I said he was the only thing wrong with this team...

It actually does free up enough make a team and try it, send Manning and JP down and Bring up Russell. Team is now 28k under the salary cap. Problem above is you have Spooner in the NHL not AHL

Not doubting that bud. Just saying a free a pick is a free pick. Elliott and Talbot wont be playing much for this team, if at all. Are you expecting Fletcher to not make this trade simply because he has to make other bigger significant trades first? Who cares what order they happen in? Its not like a Simmonds trade is contingent on Philly moving Elliott or adding Talbot.....

I understand. I am just bitter that they fired Hextall. Holmgren should have been the one gone.

Yeah, but on the flip side Hart is playing in the NHL now and killing it! But yeah Hex shouldn't have been fired. Regardless of whether Hart was ready now or not. Holmgren wants a puppet GM and that is probably a real bad situation for Flyers fans.
