Yeah, I'm not sure who thought of that trade. Chicago makes off like bandits here.

It's common theme which I don't understand....the Oilers trading their first and more to acquire a rental goalie. Oilers likely still don't even make the playoffs this year even with better goaltending

Don’t have to say, “it’s awful”.
Already said it’s hockeybuzz.

If this somehow was pulled off and KD didn't get the job permanently there would be riots amongst the fan base.

Pity the reality is there is no chance of this ever happening.

Not true, now I'm not saying goaltending is the only issue in EDM but a better goaltender would make a huge difference. The Oilers are well within reach of the playoffs as long as they start winning more, they have a handful of games in hand while not being far behind in points.

It's one thing to post trades like this on CapFriendly. It's another thing entirely to post this on a much more widely disseminated social media platform.

Thanks for relaying this idiocy. It gives me insight into how seriously to take hockeybuzz.

It's just fans overreacting. Apparently we're prone to that. rolling eyes

Ken Holland has already stated that he's not trading a 1st or a decent prospect for a rental. And if you look at his trade history, I don't think he has ever traded a 1st for a rental even when he was pushing for a Cup every season with Detroit. So what we're seeing here is simply not realistic.

Yeah, the west is wide open. If the Oilers were I the East it would be over already, but they're very much still in the hunt. Anaheim holds the 3rd spot in the Pacific, they're 7 points ahead but the Oilers have 6 games in hand. It's totally doable... that said, I doubt we see much movement until closer to the deadline. Kane + a low cost veteran goalie? Holland may wait a bit on the goalie until prices come down.

I know Fluery is still pretty good but like smith, he’s an aging asset with an injury history. Paying that much for a 37 year old goaltender would only be worth it IF you won the cup this year with him leading the way. Anything short of that and Edmonton is robbed blind
