Thread: too much in 1 offseason
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DEdward</b></div><div>New GM in NY. stranger things have happened. They have lots of young forwards on the roster and coming. And just had 2 of their best players manhandled by Wilson with no answer. I could.see interest in Kassian or a Kassian type. Chytil is expendable in NY.</div></div>

He is our future 2C. We can get Deslauriers for far less. In fact most EDM fans have valued that bad Kassian contract as negative value to a 4th rounder so we probably won’t pay this price. New GM, yes, stupid, no. He may even trade Chytil but it wouldn’t be for Kassian straight up. Also he isn’t lost in our depth, his development is doing great and he didn’t do well when moved up the line up last season. Par for the course is what he needs to develop

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DEdward</b></div><div>lead defenceman in points. so not a bad player. and all the categories you are talking about Barrie had slightly lower numbers. It's not like he was a drag. I would sign Barrie to make Bear expendable in a trade and it was honestly a really hard choice. I don't think the Oilers will be able solve all their scoring winger needs in free agency and a trade or 2 will be needed.

As far as the sign or don't sign Barrie debate that is/will continie right up until he signs somewhere else I think.</div></div>

Barrie dragged McDavids numbers.. look at McDavids Goals Against with Barrie, it’s insane they played together as much as they did. Leading the league in points really doesn’t mean much when half are secondary assists on McDavid having one of the most dominant seasons in recent history.

I don’t think you get the appropriate amount of value back than Bear provides in a trade.

All rumours pointing to Barrie wanting term, which would Bouchard redundant so hopefully it’s not a debate for long.
