Thread: Trade Kulak and Ceci not Broberg
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>aadoyle</b></div><div>Ceci is bad cant see it I cant help yah

The one time he looked good was a stretch of play after February 10th

<img class="for_img" src="https://oilersnation.com/_next/image?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpublish.oilersnation.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2023%2F07%2Fceci_career.png&amp;w=3840&amp;q=75" alt="image?url=http%3A%2F%2Fpublish.oilersnation.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2023%2F07%2Fceci_career.png&amp;w=3840&amp;q=75">

And if you need it GF is a ratio of the goals scored and goals against when a player is on the ice in 5 on 5 play.

I get your trying to defend the signing and the player but hes not good. Even the majority of EDM fans see it

They would much have anyone else play with Nurse than Ceci who is just an eyesore analytically and eye test wise.

Hes just a waste of 3.25m and they gonna lose Broberg as a result ouch

Like if Nurse being honest anyone but him would be his preference lul. And we saw it already playing with EDM big boyz can make stats look better than they should just check out Barrie in EDM vs. NSH. Ceci god hes already not great on a new team could be utter disaster.

Might be looking like hes good but how much is Nurse carrying is the real question lul.</div></div>

Using relative statistics against his own team makes no sense as an argument here... he has a 52% xGF in the last three season (2021-2024), which if you need, means he is expected to be on the ice for more goals than against which is really really good for a defencemen we all think is playing above his weight class ice time wise. In addition to just xGF% he is also above 50% in scoring chances for, high danger chances for, all while having sub 50% ozone starts and faceoffs. Also meaning that he starts more shift in the d-zone than any other zone on the ice and yet somehow is on the ice for more expected goals, scoring chances and high danger chances. That picture you posted screams, "I read something on the internet one time and it looked bad so it must be". Stick to something else maybe...

Thread: Trade Kulak and Ceci not Broberg
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac555</b></div><div>If Ceci was a solid 2nd pairing defender, at 3.25m with another year of term you wouldn’t be trading him. That is a great deal for a top 4 defender…which Ceci is not. He’s a 5/6 on a good team, one that isn’t worth paying assets for nor spending 3.25m on.

It’s not ignorance, it’s perspective. Ceci would be the 3rd best RHD on the Canes, and probably the 6 or 7 best overall defenseman.</div></div>

So it is ignorance because what you just explained is not replacement level and the Oilers need to move him because they need an upgrade. I never said I didn't think his contract wasn't of value but having him, Bouchard and Desharnais as the RHD they need an upgrade. If they could find a way to not move him and also add, theyd obviously like to do that but to get good players sometimes you have to give half decent ones up too.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SharkTank</b></div><div>Red Wings don't need Kulak. They already have 7D plus young Edvinsson playing in Grand Rapids.

Sharks don't want the JC contract. Already eating enough dead cap with Karlsson and Burns.</div></div>

Fair on the Detroit thing. Sorta forgot they had drafted Edvinsson. It was a really quick look from me to see a team that could use a half decent LHD. For the sharks that is mostly based on recent rumours about the Oilers being interested in Blackwood and the only way that occurs is the Sharks taking back Campbell. Also, when the Sharks are where they are at rebuild wise, they should absolutely be weaponizing money to get more assets so maybe it took more of a return but I think they don't really care about the cap hit or the money as long as the owner is ok paying it and they get a return. But fair point to bring up.

Thread: Oilers Next Year
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>vikhodush</b></div><div>Don’t even think that pesce offer gets a counter or response from canes. Ceci is at best a third pair d and likely is 7D on canes. Bourg is fine but not of interest to a team in contention.

Would rather just OS Bouchard at 1x7 and watch you guys scramble to match.</div></div>

Ya and hes a cheap and controllable player for them unlike Pesce. Bourgault is likely the best prospect you're going to get for a guy that is pricing himself out of that poverty franchise. Never said it was an exact deal, but like I said, its not as far off as you think it is. And certainly not "multiple firsts" like the guy above thinks. This isnt the NBA where they throw around 1st like theyre candy at the draft.

And Carolina wont even pay their own D-man 7 million so on what planet does it get green lit to offer sheet a guy for one year at 7 million...

Thread: Toronto Blockbuster
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>I do think Toronto doesn't know yet because they are literally not allowed to talk about extensions at all. Just like how Calgary has very little idea on what Lindholm wants.

The point though is that Calgary would have even less of an idea since they can't even go off internal rumors.

I would much rather move the 2024 1st, thats not even up for debate. 16th OA is guaranteed to be a pretty good pick.</div></div>

You absolutely can talk to your own player about how much money they might want on their next deal. Other teams cant talk to your players without permission but you can most definitely talk to your own players. Just can't actually sign the deal until July 1st of the year their contract is set to expire.
