Thread: Thinking Ahead

Trading away guys like Puljujarvi, Foegele and Samorukov when you're trying to get "harder to play against" is completely illogical.

You're underestimating Foegele's value.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GrinReaper</b></div><div>Oilers accept

I think a more realistic trade looks like Allen for Barrie but Edmonton will take all the cap space your deal gives them</div></div>

I have no clue what Allen's value could be but when there is demand it could be anywhere from decent prospect to a 3rd rounder.

Montreal would need something on the right side if they move Petry, Barrie would be a decent placeholder til Mailloux, Barron and whomever they grab tomorrow are ready.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Kjell_Forsman</b></div><div>There have been worse Kane retention trades from Oil fans.</div></div>

Well in fairness by the draft the Oilers gave a 2nd and a 3rd for 3.2 million for 2 years.
So he is kind of giving 2*2nd round picks and Foggle who is a serviceable NHL player and can help until all the new guys are ready. They still need NHL players and cap minimum. I dont think its that far off.

Thread: Summer 22 post TDL

Jesus, a 2nd for Luke ****ing Schenn? That's an <strong>immediate </strong>dial tone.

Also, pass on the other trade where the Oil give a 2nd for mostly scraps (I like Motte, but not for a 2nd; Halak does nothing for me).

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>jgimp69</b></div><div>Trust me, I agree with you. I watched Chia for years and can’t believe that they paid that for him. That said, that seems to be the market</div></div>

You need to realize teams dictate the price they are willing to pay. There's zero chance Edmonton ever pays this much because they are not prime contenders like Florida is this year and Florida is in a serious cap crunch after this year so its all or nothing type situation for them. If Edmonton was willing to give up a first and one of their top 3 prospects they would be going after Chychrun Level player or a bonafide #1 goalie because both fit Oilers success better in long term.

And that was a bad trade. Either way, it's still to much. You're asking for 2 firsts and a 4th opposed to 1,3,4. Oilers don't do it. Maybe someone else will.

Thread: Sabres TDL

Wishful thinking here dude
I’m a Sabres fan, but the crap you’re getting is deserved

The Oilers trade is hideous for them
Yes, Koskinen is extremely unreliable & the need another goalie just in case- but they aren’t paying a 1st to get rid of him, especially when he’s been playing well lately!
A more likely trade would be Anderson for a 4th or maybe a 3rd to EDM, just so they’d have some insurance for when he starts playing crappy again

And let me guess your reasoning on the Pitt trade:
U think Pysyk’s analytics make them think he’s barely a downgrade from Marino
😂😂😂
They aren’t gonna do that. Maybe if Olofsson was having a good season? But we both know that his lack of production this season has had to have killed his value.

You’re just REALLY reaching with these dude

Probably don’t need to open a discussion on this one. The guy literally has a 1st round pick for 40 year year old Craig Anderson. When they are that far off the mark, best to let the thread fade away haha

Change the Oilers trade to Smith+3rd for Anderson and you might have something closer to reality.

Thread: Just an idea

Korpisalo is worse than Koskinen, Barrie is only slightly worse than Klingberg offensively speaking. Not worth giving up all of that for a downgrade in goaltending and a small upgrade defensively

Thread: tdl package deal

Edmonton won't have any interest in making that trade imo; Skinner looks solid and is signed next year for $750k, plus he's from the city which is always a bonus. Sammy has been inconsistent and will need a new >$2M contract next year. Not to mention the 1st round pick. Can't see it happening

Thread: New Regime

These are all wildly in favour of Vancouver. Do you seriously think Edmonton wants to or has cap room to take on Myers while paying you a 3rd alongside Barrie??

Thread: Blow it up

I like the idea but Winnipeg gotta aquire Smith and Kassian aswell for me to accept it as an Oilers fan. Also remove a 1st from Detroit and they might say yes. Or send Scheifele to a team like Boston for 2 1st and Studnicka or Minnesota for Rask(2 year 2.5m extension in place), Dumba and 2022 1st.

Don’t see oilers making that type of investment for a goalie when have skinner continuing to progress as he has.
