Thread: Optimized Oilers
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CD282</b></div><div>So you think trading Barrie for a next to nothing just to sign a bunch of losers is a good strategy? I just don't see it.</div></div>

I view Barrie as a cap casualty. His role has become redundant due to the emergence of Bouchard, as well as Broberg likely being promoted from the AHL. Trading Barrie for a modest return opens up cap space to sign McLeod and add additional depth to the lineup. It's a better solution than selling low on Pulju or strapping an asset to Foegele in order to move his cap hit.

Holl would be a solid partner for Broberg/Murray and would help to suppress zone entries, which the Oilers struggled to do throughout the previous season.

Thread: Petterson
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Richard88</b></div><div>Byram is a 21 year old top pairing Dman who just played the most 5v5 minutes of any player in the SCF while posting the best xGF% metrics on the team. You're kidding yourself if you think Vancouver would turn their noses up at him automatically, especially considering that he's a hometown boy who'd definitely be a career player there and probably take a decent discount in Vancouver. Compare that to Petterson who doesn't even want to be there...</div></div>

So the Canucks trade their 23 year old franchise centerman with several seasons under their belt including a calder trophy and 3 65+ point seasons for a 21 year old who has dealt with serious concussion issues in the past? Byram is an LHD which is what we are already stacked on. It would be a brainless move to trade our franchise centerman for another LHD

Where has anything said he doesn’t want to be here? Byram would be our second pair D man and make OELs contract hurt even more. Pettersson is not available. Even if you think Byram is “fair value” teams don’t just trade superstars for “fair value.”

I would love Byram, the fans would love Byram. Not if it costs our best forward whois a two way beast that dominates in every situation and, when healthy for the second half of the year, had a 46 goal 96 point pace

Thread: Robertson trade
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>JeffGorton</b></div><div>Suzuki isnt holding out on a contract. Suzuki is a future captain. Center is a higher value position than a winger.

Harley is nowhere near the same as Guhle. Harley has the same floor but way lower ceiling than Guhle. Anderson is better than Gurianov. And for the 1st, most likely a 6-10 pick in 2024. A stronger draft than 2022.

You also forgot about the Khudobin cap eating which easily costs a team a 2nd rounder at the very least</div></div>

You can tweak it the way you want, there is like 10 person on your post telling you you're way off, some not even Dallas fans.

Yes suzuki is under contract and play center but no matter how much dollars he sign for Robertson is worth it and as a much higher production rythm.

Maybe anderson is better than Gurianov but also older and more expensive for a longer period of time.

Yes Guhle should be better than Harley but both still has everything to prove in the NHL.

The pick cant be top 10 in 2023, top 5 in 2024 after your conditions, with that roster anyway its probably not even possible.

You are just wrong my friend its okay
