Its getting harder to fix ken Hollands mistakes

Created by: lebroyal
Team: 2021-22 Edmonton Oilers
Initial Creation Date: Jul. 28, 2021
Published: Jul. 28, 2021
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
We need a couple more forwards and a goalie
This is the only thing I can think of, the defense situation is no longer fixable and the only moves I can think of is signing danault and trading for kuemper.
I don't think this team is the worst team, I like the top 3 lines, I like the goalies and as long as the defense doesn't suck that bad I think we have a good team here.

Zero chance Holloway is in the lineup and zero chance Kassian goes to taxi squad. Also if you think Arizona is going to give up Kuemper and take on the exact same 4.5m cap hit for only a 2nd round pick you're crazy. If we want to send Koskinen to Arizona for Kuemper it will have to be along with a leggeson or a samorukov or 2 seconds or some other combo...

That 1LW kinda hurts to see lmao

Good for him though, he got his payday.

I wish him all the best in Edmonton, and he gets to play with the best player in the world.

No taxi squad this year so those players need to be on the roster meaning you are way over cap. unless you want 0 flexibility if somebody goes down to injury

Adding Hyman and Foegele should provide a vast improvement at LW, Keith will be better at 2LD than the combination of Jones, Lagesson, Russell, Koekkoek, and Kulikov, and the combination of Ceci and Bouchard should quickly become at least as effective as the combination of Larsson and Bear were last season. Rumors hold that Holland has shopped for players that fit a team need and want to be in Edmonton. I don't think there is anything to fix among the moves he has made so far.

In terms of a 3C, I seriously doubt Danault is in the cards. His ask, in terms of salary, term, and role are unlikely to fit with what the Oilers are doing. Its possible Holland addresses that roster need via another trade, or perhaps he finds a suitable, but lower profile and less expensive option in free agency. Both Getzlaf and Bonino are no longer available. If he can swing a deal for Kuemper, the Oilers are going to be a very, very good team next season.
