Thread: Edmonton Oilers signed Kailer Yamamoto (2 Years / $3,100,000 AAV)
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>PointStamkosVasilevskiy219188</b></div><div>I actually think Barrie would be easier to move given that he brings more to the market value (because of his slightly above-average offense for a blue-liner) than Foegele

I think Barrie could fetch a 4th rounder on the market, I can't see Foegele earning more than a 6th

DET (as you pointed out) needs to get rid of a forward, maybe they swap one for Barrie? (But I do think it'll be Foegele that EDM moves)</div></div>

Issue is not many teams need Dman and the ones that do need a LD more so than a RD (SEA for instance) and there will be other teams needing to move Dman so that market will be to competitive to get Barrie out. Plus lets be real Barrie's numbers are exaggerated a bit mainly through being on a PP with Mcdavid and Draisaitl and teams probably know this and wont be thrilled about that

As we have seen so far moving a forward in a cap dump has been easier than a Dman

Like lets be real I dont think Barrie would give the same kind of production with Arizona than he would with Edmonton. And 4.5mill x 2 years in a flat cap is a tough pill to swallow for what he brings

But for Foegele 2.75mill is not only easier but also you wont have to give up much to move him heck might not to give anything to dump him. Could do a Foegele for Carcone kind of trade where one team gets the better player and the other moves out cap and gets a 4th line/pressbox guy

Thread: Which goalie should the Oilers go after?
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>TheKomet</b></div><div>Leverage an offer sheet to force a trade with Dallas for Oettinger they may accept Puljiarvi and a 1st this would allow the Oilers to sign him for cheaper.

That is an absolute garbage take. Dallas is doing perfectly fine, and there's no real offer sheet threat as DAL is able to match any offer EDM or anyone else would muster.

Their contract situation isn't even close to as bad people seem to think.

Thread: Giving it a try
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Sagecoll</b></div><div>Yeah we’re pretty far off in evaluations here. Trouba’s market value is somewhere between Risto and Jones in a trade. It’s more than Gavrikov even with an extension. Some would say the difference is more than the value of Robinson.

Lindgren for Rosy is pretty even.

Makes sense for you guys tbh. You fix your RHD issues, Lindgren does everything Gavi does while being younger and has team control. Copp gives you a 2C that can actually play D and does everything Rosy can do offensively. A pretty clear upgrade there.</div></div>

Yeah, but, how many people out here are applauding the received value of the Risto or Jones trade? 😂

That’s my point here - Trouba doesn’t really do anything for us. He’s a RD, sure, but I don’t necessarily buy him as the Top-Pairing guy that would change the make-up of our blue line.He’s getting paid $8M, but playing more like a $5M-$6M guy. Giving anything in value for him alone that is even within the ballpark of the Jones trade is a waste.
