<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>uphere</b></div><div>If good Kassian shows up consistently during 2021/22, and the rest of your scenario comes to pass, I think the Oilers might consider flipping Archibald in order to address other roster needs before the '22 TDL. When he is on, Kassian is a top-six forward, a game changer, and a menace to the opposition. Much of what good Kassian does renders Archibald redundant, and there are plenty of others on your roster capable of replacing Archie on the penalty kill.

With Archie moved out, Keith retired, and Klefbom on LTIR, the Oilers would have just enough cap space to put together that roster. It may read as sacrilege, but I think Holland might see what kind of offers he can get for Yamamoto. Playing Lavoie with RNH and Foegele might give the Oilers a pretty dangerous third line; a smart and responsible centre between a fast LW who can drive play, and a fast RW who loves to shoot could produce a renaissance season for number 93. Moving Yamamoto would likely be very unpopular but if he has a decent 2021/22 campaign the Oilers would likely sell high and have future space available for a prospect like Maksimov, or more likely Tullio.</div></div>

I actually re-signed Archibald who is a UFA in 2022 - so 'addressing other roster needs' doesn't have to wait until the deadline. What were you thinking?
