That would be a STEAL for the Flyers… don’t see him dropping that far though. Top 10 for sure, maybe even top 5. He’s an insane hockey player, and has done well on a mediocre Spokane Chiefs team.

Nothing about Holloway but the value is closer than a Kovacevic than Kirby Dach. I’m not saying Kovy is a good fit for you tho because like you said Vinny already have this 6D giant guy spot</div></div>
I disagree. Holloway’s value would be greater than Kovecevic, but it would be lower than normal. Of course it would be in a package for Dach, but he’s the one guy I would want off of Montreal if Holloway was getting traded, not another bottom pair defence man.

No thank you. We don’t need Kovecevic with Desharnais on the team. If you want Holloway, I would possibly do a trade including Holloway for Dach. I don’t understand the thought process behind sending Kovecevic to Edmonton.

Not near enough. He’s easily a top winger in the NHL imo. You would need to start the trade with one of Slafkovsky, Reinbacher, or your own 2024 1st.

hockey trades version 2
Kane is a type of guy that every team would benefit from having. He’s a big player that has been really good in the playoffs for us. I would argue that Kane brings more to the table than Smith. I may take Smith 50% retained for a pick, but that’s about it. I honestly don’t think Kane would waive for any team anyways.

Kane wouldn’t waive, nor would I trade him, and for that, I would decline. He’s too effective, especially come playoff time. Kerfoot I don’t mind, and Vejmelka I like, but not enough to give up a guy like Kane .

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Jacketsman61</b></div><div>Texier to me has found a role on the 3rd line with Silly and Nylander.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>CaseyFlyman</b></div><div>He and Sillinger have shown some great chemistry lately, so I don't really see Texier being available. As a player, probably no more than a 2nd, but he's the kind of player I'd rather keep around since his floor is a good defensive 3rd-line forward, and his ceiling adds some skill and makes him maybe a 2nd-line winger. He's more valuable than another pick right now to the organization.</div></div>
Thank you both for your comments! It’s good for you guys that he has found chemistry, bad for me haha. I was hoping someone was going to say that he would be up for grabs, and then name the price… it’s all good though, and I appreciate the insight. If it was for a 2nd, I would do that in a heartbeat, but I understand why he would be more valuable from the organization’s standpoint. He is a sneaky good player, and I think he could really elevate his game with a guy like Draisaitl. That’s why I wanted him actually!
Have a great one, both of you!

Personally, I wouldn’t take that deal from Edmonton, and before anyone goes ballistic on me, yes I did read the trade and saw it said “any team”, however, they posted it going to Edmonton.
As a side note, if you were going to trade Alex Texier, what would the asking price be? He is one of the only guys off of Columbus that I would want, that we could realistically get without giving up a million assets for.
And of course, have a great one!

how did I do
Terrible, horrendous, this sucks! No I’m just joking with you, I would never say that. In reality, I will try my best to give some constructive criticism.
First of all, the bonus. I like it that you have included this here, as a lot of people who make oilers posts do not do so. We would need a backup, as you know, I’m thinking we resign Pickard, and himself, and Rodrigue will fight for the roster spot. The loser will of course go to the AHL to tandem with Ungar. If Henrique is coming back to Edmonton, we will not need Gaudreau, as a guy like Perry, Lavoie, or Kane will take that RW spot. I would like to get a top 6 forward still, to play with Draisaitl, and Pionk doesn’t cut it imo. He’s not good enough defensively to play with Nurse. Instead, I would look at getting one of Matt Roy, Dylan DeMelo, or Alex Carrier from free agency, or a good guy via trade.
Have a great one!

I wanna say they were trying to put it under the cap, but still why are there Central teams, and why is a guy like Garland here too? You could get a way better guy than Garland that plays for the four playoff teams in the pacific imo.

Not interested in Merzlikins, no thanks. I would take Texier though.. you traded him for what a 3rd here? A little higher? I would do it. He’s actually a very underrated forward imo, would be cheaper too to allow us to get a better defence man.

oil offseason
Hmm. Okay, so this is what I would change.
The line combinations are not good imo, and would be changed, but I doubt this is the main purpose with this post.
I would get rid of Zucker completely, same as Foegele, and replace them with Henrique, and a better top 6 forward. If we cannot get Henrique, we can trade for a 3c, and move McLeod to Draisaitl’s wing. Hamblin should not be up, instead he could be replaced with Carrick, Gagner, Brown etc. Ceci, and Kulak should without a doubt be getting traded, with Broberg getting full NHL ice time. You are over the cap, so I would buyout Campbell as well, and get a legitimate top 4 RHD.
I would want the team to look like something like this:
Nugent-Hopkins-McDavid-Hyman
McLeod-Draisaitl-BLANK
Holloway-Henrique/BLANK-Kane
Janmark-Carrick-Ryan/Gagner/Lavoie
Ekholm-Bouchard
Nurse-BLANK
Broberg-Desharnais
Skinner
Rodrigue/Pickard
The BLANKS would be what you would fill, as those are our biggest holes. So to some it up.. trade Kulak, and Ceci, buyout Campbell, do the resigns, get a top 6 forward, and top 4 RHD, and possibly a 3c if Henrique does not come back.

Hello! That is way too much for Pickard. I’m thinking more of a 1M deal, then he will battle with Rodrigue for the backup position. Akey, Grubbe, and Bourgault are not ready, so I would give them more time, although in a few years, I would absolutely try out Grubbe. Tad much for Henrique imo, 3M seems more reasonable, and Foegele will not get 4.5M. We should be getting a top 6 forward, and a top 4 RHD at least, and we would not let our important RFAs, and Desharnais go for nothing.
Have a great one!

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>phillyjabroni</b></div><div>I thought about making the 2026 2nd a 1st instead but figured too many Oilers fans would scoff at the offer. I'd imagine DB can get at least a 1st for Laughton, would probably cost an extra 2nd or 3rd to pry him from the Flyers but I'm a huge fan of Holloway. Campbell they can eat until Michkov comes over and then either buy him out or warehouse it on the books.</div></div>
Haha, yah some oilers fans may get mad at that. I could see it though, especially with you taking Campbell back too. Laughton is very underrated imo, he’s a very good top 9 forward. He could play all throughout Edmonton’s lineup.
