Thread: Youth Movement

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MisstheWhalers</b></div><div>Holloway's numbers are really underwhelming so far, is he gonna figure it out?</div></div>

He should. Seems to be a reocurring theme with Edmonton coaches to not trust the youth. But is usually buzzing and plays a style that could easily fit with 97 or 29 but coaches refuse to give him more than a couple shifts before scrambling lines again. He's been buried on the 4th line for most of the year.

Was playing fantastic before Christmas then got hurt for a couple months. There's a player there for sure.

I feel like that line could do some damage and unlock Holloway as well

Thread: Youth Movement

Don't think Holloway gets moved. He's the type of value player you need to stay competitive. His next deal will be cheap too. Oilers offer would likely be

2024 1st, Broberg, Bourgault, Foegele

Potentially. Depends on what the market is in a few weeks and if any other significant D become available before then.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>Come on, trading Foegele out as a cap dump is silly. He's outperforming Tarasenko so far this year.

I'd love to add Tarasenko, but this isn't the way.</div></div>

I agree, the cost of a 1st to swap Foegele out for Tarasenko is too much. Was mostly seeing cost for Tarasenko from sens fan perspective. Not sure who else they can move to make add a player.

I'm still taking Tarasenko over Foegele any day. Even if the analytics don't indicate a significant difference.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ansabch12</b></div><div>I can double assure you that he does lmao</div></div>

He traded Zadorov to a Pacific rival. What makes you think he won't do the same with Tanev if it's the best offer. Unless you think Tanev is returning more than a 2nd and 3rd..

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SwarmChair</b></div><div>A 1st is fine.

Foegele wont be traded and he doesn’t even make sense for the Sens. He’s a rental UFA just like Tank.</div></div>

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>Well sorry you’re not getting Tarasenko unless u give a 1st and sens aren’t taking ceci</div></div>

Hypothetically, what would be the cost of getting Tarasenko half retained? Just a 1st? Or what else added to a 1st? Assuming Edmonton magically had 2.5M in space.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Oilers_29</b></div><div>Easy no for the oilers on this one I don’t think foegle will get traded</div></div>

Who do you think would get moved to clear money? Foegele has been great but I wonder if they can sell high in him and add a legit top 6, maybe even guenztel. For D, I don't see any huge upgrades that makes it worth moving Ceci or kulak (Ekholm esque). Could move Campbell but then you're talking multiple 1st/ equivalents

Meh it's still a division rival. Oilers have had their number for a few years and they returned the favour so far this year. Including the season opener. Definitely different in opinion haha

Thread: perry and ceci upgrade

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Zadorov is a #5 that can play in the top 4 in a pinch. Vancouver is also not a rival, they just want to think they are. Like ask yourself, as an Oilers fan do you genuinely hate the Canucks? As a Flames fan I don't, but I do dread the day McDavid lifts the cup for the Oilers. I don't even mind if Lindholm ends up a Canuck (though I think he would look weird in that jersey).

Many teams would offer a 2nd+ for Tanev's services. If Edmonton wants him they have to pay premium. Because Conroy's head will be on a stick if he feeds the Oilers a cup and the return is average at best.</div></div>

Yes, the Canucks are hated here. They feasted on the Oilers for so many years with the Sedins. If they meet in the playoffs it'll feel similar to the BoA

As much as you loathe the idea, I don't think the GMs really give a crap about the "rivalry" aspect. He's a rental and Flames already moved Zadorov to Vancouver. So that alone proves GMs don't get petty over stuff like that.

Skinner has strung 3 quality games together and is finding traction. He is going to play a lot so hopefully this helps with some of the consistency issues.

Thread: mcdavid wants out

As an Oilers fan, if they EVER get to the point where they have to trade McDavid, and they dont get back some Elite young talent to compete right away, its going to be a real tough sell to get people into that building night after night. A boatload of 1sts and random players aren't going to cut it.
