Thread: Holland sitting on his hands
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>He won't buyout Campbell, that's poor asset management. Kulak is the odd man out on the blue line, I could see him getting moved for a pick.

There's no reason to offer Bjugstad that much money OR term, he's 31 this summer and has earned just $900k in each of his past 2 contracts. Bouchard will require more though.

And "sitting on his hands" isn't a bad idea really. The Oilers have the best record in the league in the second half so far. <a href="https://www.nhl.com/stats/teams?reportType=game&amp;dateFrom=2023-01-10&amp;dateTo=2023-03-31&amp;gameType=2&amp;filter=gamesPlayed,gte,1&amp;sort=pointPct&amp;page=0&amp;pageSize=50" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">NHL second half</a></div></div>

Yes, not much is needed than a lot of resigns, take a thought on Shore and Janmark what to do, and create capspace. Wven if Kulak is traded, where to get enoygh capspace? I dont think Campbell is worth 5 millions ever. Trade or buyout is the best way. They even dont trust him after some good games. He is a 5 million dollar backup. THATS bad asset management. So its either Campbell or Kulak + Yamamoto. I would go that Campbell way. Preferbly both Campbell and Yamamoto goes. Kulak can wait until Broberg is fully ready.then that LD is one pf the best in the league with Ekholm, Nurse, Broberg. And I like a right with Bouch, Ceci, VD.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SupremeBone</b></div><div>I'm going to presume Edler is less THE target and more a placeholder for a UFA D at around that cap hit and, thus, will refrain from critiquing that aspect of the roster.

Beyond that, I think CHI would want a more substantial piece in a Raddysh trade (at least a 2nd; perhaps even a 1st). Whether they get that or not is another matter, but I imagine Yamo and some draft fodder isn't the package they'd accept.

As for the Ceci trade, that value MAY be right if you find the right team, but LA just simply isn't that. They're flush with RD (Doughty, Roy, Walker, Durzi, Clarke, etc) and will need the 3.25mil Ceci occupies over the remainder of his contract for other purposes. The only teams I see maybe being "right" for Ceci are ones with a gap at RD, a desire to start/continue competing, and aren't in dire straits cap-wise. Teams that may fit that description are Detroit (traded Hronek and don't have a 2RD candidate behind Seider), Buffalo (could use another RD, though Ceci isn't that much of an upgrade on Lyubushkin; cap situation beyond '24 might limit their interest), Montreal (could use a RD, though they might prefer keeping spots open for young Dmen), and Vancouver (they could use a defensive presence on RD between Hronek and Bear; would need to have moved on from Myers and bought out OEL to have the cap space). Anaheim and Arizona have a need but probably aren't going to be competitive and, thus, would likely view it as a cap dump.</div></div>

Thanks for input. Youre right about Edler. A bit to much i think as well. Hes a place holder. I redo Raddysh trade.
