Playing GM For Canadian Teams Oilers Addition

Created by: HabsFan61
Team: 2023-24 Edmonton Oilers
Initial Creation Date: Jun. 3, 2023
Published: Jun. 3, 2023
Salary Cap Mode: Basic
Description
This is a much tougher job than most in the league because the cap situation is very tight but the expectations are through the roof given who’s on the team. I think they have to fix the blueline at all costs because that’s where I see the most trouble.

The goals have to be to bring the kids along and give them meaningful playing time while also clearing cap and improving the defensive structure of the team. Moving Kulak and Ceci out to bring in Brannstrom and Savard saves around 4 million and you get a young defenceman in Brannstrom to bring into the lineup but you also get Savard at a discount for 2 years. It’s saving over a million and getting a better version of the same kind of player Ceci was. I signed Toews to improve the structure of the bottom six and more importantly bring a leader into that dressing room.

I would accept that offer as the Anaheim GM, assuming that you had acquired that third.

They have the Flyer 3rd by way of the first trade. I see RHD as a short term need for Anaheim and Ceci is a good stop gap.

I know. My point was that unless it's a top-quarter 2023 third (which Edmonton doesn't currently own), we wouldn't do the deal.

Im sorry but Savard is not good anymore. In the last 2 years he is one of the worst defensive defenseman statistically. I would rather keep Ceci or trade for DeMelo.

Kulak is excellent playoff performer (our second best D this season playoffs), but Brannstrom is good return. Would take it.

Savard atp is just a body. Literally he was a league leader in shot blocks the big idiot.
