Thread: If Canadians Blow it Up at Deadline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>cdnbacon</b></div><div>Why would you mess up the chemistry of a team with only one loss? (even the L was a very close game)</div></div>

i said at deadline, im sure we will have more than 1 loss by then

Thread: Cup Run

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bringer_Of_Snow</b></div><div>Don't think Brown is the caliber of player I'd like to move a 1st for. Let alone adding Lavoie or as someone above suggested Yamamoto.</div></div>

You would need to add Yamo because Brown has 2 years left after this year at 3,6MM. And i believe Brown is worth it he is the same type of player as Hyman and Foegele and he can score 15-20 per season. it would be a huge add to our top 6, in fact probably gives us the best top 6 in hockey.

Thread: Cup Run

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DeadWingsv2</b></div><div>Detroit is not giving you a massive upgrade in net for a bad goaltender, a garbage "prospect" and a late 2nd. Hell, the 2nd is probably the cost just to take Koskinen off your hands... he's really bad...</div></div>

I guess we will see how bad he is he will start against you this week. Greiss in 7GP has 3.24-GA and 0.906S% and Koskinen in 8GP has 2.54-GA & 0.920S%. I wouldn't want this trade as it is very Bad for the Oilers.

Thread: MY Team Canada

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>I really think Chabot has become underrated in the NHL. I guess being dragged down last year by Zaitsev has done that.</div></div>

I agree, but i tried to build pairings, Chabot is unreal but both Pelech & Nurse are better in Defensive roles. I think that first pairing is set already and Makar will be 2RD so he will need a defensive D partner and third pair i picked Nurse (soft spot) because he adds some toughness and he would pair very well with Burns (i want his shot). I am ok if the 3rd pair is any combination of Nurse, Burns, Paraynko, Ekblad, Hamilton, Spurgeon, Chabot or Chychurn.

Cant see Vegas and Oilers trading mid-season when they will be fighting for first. Vegas wont want McNabb going to the Oilers and Edmonton wont want to help Vegas out of their Cap hell.

The Jarry overpay is also to take the Kassian contract which is purely a cap dump

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>Classic Oilers fan comment</div></div>

No at all I am a hockey fan, but that's more than Buffalo just got for Eichel. Also the upcoming Tkachuk contract negotiations are real, they have been quoted as taking pride in getting the most money possible. I just don't think he is a 9-10MM player. I would gladly take him on the Oilers if he was available at 7.0 - 7.5 MM per season.

Good moves. I wonder if Getzlaf would agree to go anywhere. Seems to me like the type who will end it where he started.</div></div>

he almost signed in Edmonton in the off season but him and his family decides to stay put, so he might come for the playoffs?

Keep dreaming on that trades it is way light, probably missing a pick and a prospect.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Timmah007</b></div><div>Pretty sure I seen a few reports saying chara wants to be in the east makes sense less travel and it’s where he’s been his entire career.
Ducks trade. Hmmm lavoie is a big blow to loose I think he’s got a lot more upside and could be a really good fit for this team in the nearer future but I do like the deal and think that’s a heck of a hard third line nobody would want to face.</div></div>

Chara may want a shot at a cup and with the additions the Oilers could be real competitors (if goaltending holds up)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>csick</b></div><div>How is it a huge overpay without including Mercer or Holtz?</div></div>

Tkachuk isn't good enough to get a top 6 forward, 2 top 10 prospects (on NJ) and a first. Also he is going to hold out for big $$ (9-10MM per) to stay in Nj because he wants to be in St. Louis

Thread: Ducks Deadline

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NoVaSpartan</b></div><div>Thanks for your feedback guys! I'd just like to note that I completely forgot to have both these guys retained at 50%, which was part of the basis of both these trades. I'm an east coast fan so I don't get to see the ducks, or any west coast team for that matter, very much, so it was difficult to properly value those guys. (in nearly 9 years of watching hockey, this year is the first time ill get to see a west coast team play in person.) Thanks for the feedback on prospects as well, from what I've seen from Dostal I've liked him, but again I haven't seen much.</div></div>

Oilers dont need Rakell and they are not giving bouchard for him. My guess is the ducks get a 2nd and a mid level prospect for Rakell at trade deadline.
