Thread: Allen to EDM
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Dutchies</b></div><div>I'm not saying he's an NHL overall top prospect, but he is within the top 5 of EDM's pool. Allen wasn't good last year, and was injured, and he hasn't carried a starting goaltender workload in the previous 3 seasons to that. EDM isn't going to give up one of their top prospects to take a chance on a goalie turning it around. They need to turn their picks and prospects into as sure a thing as they can. Poehling does nothing for them, as they only play the Leafs twice a year LOL (hope you get that reference)

Look at it this way, would you trade Ylonen or Guhle for a package like this? Cause those are prospects on his level</div></div>

I think you're not being very fair with Jake Allen, he was pretty good with the team he had in front, especially the defense. While I know he may never be a starter again, I think he proved to be a reliable 35-games goalie. Oilers just lost their goalie tandem and they badly need someone between the pipes.

As for Holloway, he's bound to be a 3rd line center at best with the oilers, they are stacked on center and that's why I think they may want to deal him for actual needs.

And I don't think you can compare the situation the two teams are in... Habs are starting a rebuild so they won't deal their #1 D prospect. Oilers are looking for a cup.

Anyways, I'm pretty sure Ken Holland will be sending calls for Jake Allen this summer
