Thread: Hopefully Realistic TDL
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ledge_And_Dairy</b></div><div>They would actually because Josh Anderson is overpaid and Calgary need Looch's cap space next season</div></div>

They arent trading Anderson. Again, missing the point of culture and team chemistry. Charts dont play on the ice, these analytics teams without actual hard work and determination never work, imagine a team with a bunch of Ondrej Kase on the squad! Anderson's at his age and pedigree you dont find. Even trading for a 1st doesnt replace his motor and leadership in the lineup. Besides the fact, he loves playing in Montreal. You see it on the ice with guys like Gallagher and Anderson rubbing off on Caufield hitting players like Tyler Myers and causing turnovers that lead to goals. Something many here that havent played the game and would sit out with a hangnail cant comprehend.

Thread: dach squared
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Garak</b></div><div>I don't know if CHI brass would decline, but I certainly would. I like Colton a lot. Might be a stretch but I have seen play from him that makes me wonder if he could be better than Kirby some day. Kirby's recent play with MTL has certainly tipped the scales in his favor quite a bit, but I still think it's possible.</div></div>

This is only scratching the surface of Kirby's talent. He wins board battles, excellent vision, his impeccable zone entries, his wing span creates so much offense just with his ability to reach pucks. That is quite the stretch. He's looking like another Getzlaf even if it's on the wing. I dont think they could have found a better option on the market to play with a smart player at center like Suzuki and a pure goal scorer like Caufield.

Thread: Waive Campbell he sucks

I warned Oilers fans about him

They were like hes gonna win the Vezina and be the last piece we need

Campbell is a very emotional goalie and when he gets in his own head he sucks. People said oh the pressure was down now that he was out of Toronto. WRONG

Edmonton arguably is putting more pressure on him as he is supposed to be the last piece they needed to win a cup

Well from the looks of things he could be a 5 year Anchor for those hopes

He should have taken less to tandem in Toronto with Samsonov as familiarity may have prevented this</div></div>

This started when they didnt sign Markstrom. Then the following year used that space for Duncan Keith instead. That Keith move will haunt them for so so long. Signing Barrie when Caleb Jones has the same role in Chicago at a low low price.

Thread: Another Savard trade

I'm pretty sure there are a half dozen GMs around the league that think the same of David Savard. The return price will be HUGE if Hughes decides to deal

Thread: before deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>SupremeBone</b></div><div>Didn't even notice it. I've developed a mental filter to ignore all Chychrun trades :tearsofjoy</div></div>

Arziona isnt selling cheaper than their current ask otherwise he would have been moved after Jakob's comments in the offseason. They are dug in much like Sakic on Duchene back in the day. The urge to move him ASAP because of 'appearances' is over.

Top4 D come at a massive price. I dont see how its any less than this return price when you have defenceman like Romanov whos a maybe top4 going for the 13th overall pick in the past draft. Bourgault isnt at that level. Broberg looks like a bust and you'd have to include Bro just to move Barrie's deal. This is essentially a 1st (protected i hope) and another mid/late round 1st for Chychrun. Is it a lot? yes! But the Oilers need to do something here in McDrai window and this will be the price at a min for Chychrun
