very interesting swap. Merzlinkins and Campbell are both negative assets, campbells buyout is less than merzlinkins so it could make sense. Kane is not good, but his raw stats are fine, and laine just being off player assistance might not fit CBJs current setting. Might have to add more than a first and bourgault though because bourgault is stinking it up in the AHL right now

Thread: Sell of and stick to the plan

yeah oilers are probably not going to give up a first for walker, especially after Tanev didnt fetch a first. I get in theory its for Ceci, but the oilers can get out of Ceci without throwing a first

a first for eller is outrageous. i wouldnt give up more than a third and a sixth for him, and even thats pushing it

you are getting a point per game first line winger for 2 playoff runs at 3.8 million thats what its going to cost, and willander is not a top 10 prospect in the league lmaoooo. Whats next, is lekkarmaki the best forward prospect in the league, canuck fans are hilarious

Thread: Big San Jose Trade

oilers say no. too much assets to dump 3.8 million for the next 3 years, and the only upgrade the oilers will make on D is for ceci. Desharnais is a execllent 3rd pair guy considering he makes less than league min this year. Prying duclair out of there would be nice, but not at the cost of holloway or broberg

Thread: Could it be realistic

Oilers decline i think. Holloways raw stats are not good, but watching him play and looking at his underlying numbers, he looks like a player thats about to pop anyday. and I know this sounds dumb talking about a guy who has 10 pts in 65 nhl games but, the fact that they wouldnt put him in a deal for chychurun last year makes me think that hes as untouchable as a prospect that we have.

doesnt make sense for the oil. They have to pay the 3.25 bonus next year anyways, might as well keep brown as he's only making league min against the cap.

Oilers will move McLeod to the wing or will try holloway there. they are not giving up a 24 year old homegrown center on pace for almost 20 goals and 40 pts under contract for 2 more years at 2 million for a rental.

Nurse is overpaid by 2 million, but hes a fine fringe 1st pair guy. Not in the world of 3rd pair how the media portrays him to be

Thread: TDL and offseason

oilers are better off staying as far away from anderson as they can. He is as bad as campbell, and his buyout caphit is higher. Once the oilers move on from campbell, its either going to be by adding a sweetner to get rid of all the cap, or just buying him out. I think Holloway has a higher ceiling than riechel, its hard to produce when you're playing 7 mins a night with derek ryan and erne like how he was. I think knoblauch will give him a chance on the wing with leon and we'll see him play well. And ceci is better at playing defense than dumba is, either get a real upgrade or just stick with ceci.

we dont need Kovacevic, hes really not that good. Better and cheaper options out there. Pipe dream for berggren would be a one for one swap with broberg, but I dont think it makes sense for where detroit is right now and what they would want

it costed the Leafs 13 selections to get out of 3.8 million for 2 years on mrazek. I assure you that getting out of 5 million for 3 and half years is not going to cost broberg, a first and 2 seconds + while having to retain.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Leafsfan98</b></div><div>Nurse doesn't make any other team's top pair</div></div>

off plain skill without taking cap hit into play he surely does, with the exception of new york, carolina, boston, dallas and colorado. Again, a player being overpaid does not take away from his skill set. He is a fringe top pair dman on anyteam that doesnt already have a bonafide number 1
