Thornton amp Marleau - not likely but would be fun for Oilers fans

Created by: newmy

Team: 2019-20 Edmonton Oilers

Initial Creation Date: Aug. 31, 2019

Published: Aug. 31, 2019

Salary Cap Mode: Basic

Description

I’m over the cap, but the Oilers could be easily compliant by assigning Gagner to AHL and bringing him up to skate and practice with the team and assign to the NHL roster when needed. Essentially he can go up and down between NHL/AHL because no one’s going to take his cap.

This is just a dream. Incredibly unlikely to happen, especially given Thornton said he’ll only play in San Jose or retire... but Marleau may actually sign in EDM, maybe that’s enough to bring Thornton for one last go? It’d give Oilers fans something enjoyable to watch for the next year... one more year... before prospects can are up and the Oilers will have some major cap space to do something.
