Thread: EDM and OTT
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Larkinisking</b></div><div>Strome was a failure in Long Island, And is proving to be a failure in Edmonton as well. No way you're getting Faulk for Strome+1st hearing that Carolina wants center depth for Faulk.</div></div>

While i agree that Strome hasn't lived up to a 1st rd pick expectation...saying he is trash is a very bad analysis. He was a solid 3rd line centre last year in the upper echelon on points. Helped turn around the Oil PK in the second half of the season. I would love to know your reasoning...

Also Faulk IMO is a third pairing guy at best. Bad work ethic, one dimensional player. From what i read too is that hes not very commited and out of shape most of the time.

So Faulf for Strome....no probably not due to him being a RHD. But toss in a mid draft pick is all he is worth.

Thread: What Edmonton Should Do
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>LoganOllivier</b></div><div>He does not have speed. He only looks like he has some speed because outside of McDavid, the oilers have zero speed. That's why they were so bad last year, they just can't keep up. (i know McDavid isn't the only decent skater on the team, they have some others but they are not at all fast, they are big and slow on the bottom 6 and just not at all talented. )</div></div>


No offense but you are way off in most of your comments about the Oil. First since PC took over and brought in Gretzky for scouting, the drafting and stock piling young assets has been great. This has been a the biggest blemish with rhe team for a decade and its finally looking up.

Has there been some bad trades and signings? For sure...not everyone can be Steve yzerman. Saying that id do the hall for larsson trade everyday to get rid of that clown.

Last Lucic does have speed for a big guy. Everyone looks slow with McDavid next to them. He had a bad half a season, who cares. It happens. He has great hockey sense, really good hands and usually money on first passes.

Do some homework before posting...

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>FullSend</b></div><div>I really like the signings. Helps PK, depth etc etc.

Edmonton says no to the first deal

Edmonton probably says yes to the second deal

Don’t wanna trade Kassian, although it may help us with the refs decisions lol.
*ref ejects Kassian our of the game and tries to tell him why”
Kassian: “Go F*ck yourself”

Lol I’d probably do the Montreal trade.

I wanna dump Sekera, but with a prospect like Bear and a top 10 1st.. no from Edmonton</div></div>

I am a big Kass fan myself I just don't see the need to pay that salary for a fourth liner. His story is great with turning his life back on track and I like how he embraces team play...but 1.8 eek.

To get a proven RHD offensive D is difficult to get so you need to overpay. I am not sold on Bear as most (I see Jones as a better all round player). I would do that trade all day everyday unless we got the 1st overall pick and the hockey universe explodes haha.

The signings I like too for the depth and the PK. I am at a loss right now on what is happening on our special teams. Beer sales have definitely gone up in my area due to me medicating with Buds watching this **** show lol.

You don't like the Letesu deal? We need to stock the shelves in the minors so getting Maletta and Kyrou to join Benson Yama, Helbig gives us some decent prospects down there to join Jones and Mantha. I like Ellis and Wells for goalie depth too.
