Might be happening as soon as tonight. Rumour is EDM will be running 7D tonight to give Bouchard some icetime

Seriously though I think the Oilers are stuck with what they have for the time being. I think the bigger issue is the defense has been pretty porous so far. Fix the D and see if the goal tending improves any, if not then overpay later in the season.</div></div>

Koski is a decent goalie. He is just being peppered. Defensive overhaul is really what the Oilers need.

Thread: Two Goalie Options

Yea.. I can't see Edmonton landing Dell hopefully but NJD, LA and CHI all could use him.

Avs would be hard pressed to land Dell feel like EDM and quite possibly NJD put a claim in.

Thread: Hows the value

News broke saying they weren't going to go over 7M a year for him. So I guess that's their current offer.

Been there, done that. Should have went for a lesser option like Domingue at least he wouldn't have been claimed

Thread: These Guys Should Score Some Talent From The Waiver Wire

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>wabit</b></div><div>Rask (12/13 FWD in MN) is better than Ho-Sang and Petan.

I'm not surprised Bracco wasn't claimed. He needs to go to Europe.

Domingue is a guy that would be okay to have as a taxi squad goalie, but not a roster goalie. So not worth claiming just to try and pass though waivers to get him to the taxi squad. NJD might be interested with Crawford retiring, but other than them I don't see many teams that would want him on the NHL roster.</div></div>

Will be better goalies on Waivers for NJD to claim. Pretty sure it will be Aaron Dell from waivers or trade with Arizona that gets them their 2nd goalie

Really depends if Tippett thinks Koekkoek/Jones can manage heavy PK minutes if not then Russell will be in sadly. Really don't want Barrie paired with an off the glass style defender like Russell.

Thread: Corey Crawford retires

Much better waiver options then Lindgren will be coming Aaron Dell (TOR), Adin Hill (ARI) and Copley (WSH)

Thread: 2020-21 Edmonton Oilers Lines

Really don't want to see Russell with Barrie feel like that's just going to kill any chance Barrie has of succeeding. Feel like pairing Barrie with a player like Jones that has better vision and composure will result in much cleaner breakouts which will play right into Barrie and frankly the Oilers 5v5 offensive strength

Thread: A Flames fan guessing oilers projection list

There's two options for the Oilers.. 4-4-1(less likely with Kahun signing).

Frowards: McDavid, Draisaitl, Yamamoto, Nuge, (JP or Kahun if Nuge extension doesn't happen)
Defence: Klefbom, Nurse, Bear, Jones
Goalie: Koskinen

Or 7-3-1 (If Nuge extends and JP or Kahun light it up)

Forwards: Mcdavid, Draisaitl, Nuge, Yamamoto, Kahun, Puljujarvi, Turris (add Benson or Archibald if Nuge isn't extended)
Defence: Nurse, Bear and Klefbom or Jones depending on Jones season
Goalie: Koskinen

Thread: What if they got 2nd oa

Would be so many chain reactions causing completely different team. Like do the Oilers take Nurse at #7 the year after taking Murray at #2 and Klefbom at #19 the year before that. Not likely the pick probably becomes Risto instead.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Tarlam01</b></div><div>good signing but that's not really what EDM needed. Kahun can't play on a 2nd line</div></div>

I'd like to see your reasoning behind that opinion because in Chi he had 39.4% time vs Elites and a GF% of 58.6%. In Pittsburgh he had 26% vs elites 54 GF% and 37% vs Middle competition with again 54 GF%. Looks a lot like he can play 2nd line minutes.

Thread: Stanley cup champs 2021

Just nitpicking but you think Lagesson who has 8 games of experience is going to make more then Kahun who is coming off back to back 30+ point seasons. Can't be overpaying players 200-250k in covid cap!

Thread: Kahun

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>the 1st problem with this team is Kassian being an eye soar on the top line.</div></div>

Either way the team looks a lot more complete then it did a year ago. In hindsight sure would have been nice to play Toffoli 4.2M then Kassian 3.2M but Holland was trying to get business out of the way early can't fault him for not predicting Covid cap.

Yea, I know Safin basically lost full year of development with injuries and is currently one of the few Oilers prospects not out on loan so missing more development time. Maybe if he stays healthy and can hold his AHL spot this year could be another story. I doubt Wells will still be in the Oilers system in 2022-23 last year he got beat out for the AHL starting job by Skinner who was an AHL rookie and now Rodrigue is also turning pro.

Thread: The Inbetweeners

Close but I can't see Safin making the NHL this quickly if at all probably have more faith in Blumel as he is playing in Czech top league now. Same for Wells more likrly Konovalov with his 0.933 in KHL currently would be the backup.
