Thread: How do you fix this roster

Sell McDavid to whoever can buy him. Sell Drai to whoever can buy him. Eat Nurse/Campbell's horrific contracts and re-build for the next 5 years.

Trying to compete now will only delay the inevitable. Holland will sell the future just to move Campbell and he's not the problem, it's the awful defense. ANY goalie other than maybe Sorokin/Shesterkin will only marginally improve a team with defense THIS bad.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>MoSeider53</b></div><div>:laugh :laugh No reason for either Campbell or Klingberg to waive for the NHL's worst team the San Jose Sharks.</div></div>

Considering Campbell is already on the NHL's worst team, the Sharks would be an improvement.

Thread: Reality check

Congrats you’ve managed to still miss the playoffs by a wide margin, you’ve sold your future, and you’ve run your 2 best players out of town.

This stuff is happening anyway, oilers will be a bottom feeder for the next decade.

Thread: This is awful

You've offered to pay for Saros but forgot that you have to pay Nashville a MASSIVE haul for them to take on what is arguably the worst contract in the league right now.

Thread: GET NURSE OUT OF HERE

I don’t think Anaheim accepts even if you send 3 firsts to take this horrible contract. 7 more years of over $9m. Pretty awful considering Makar, Fox and Hughes are on similar deals.

Thread: hawks hustle oil town

Make it a 24 1st and a 27 1st. Edmonton will continue to be a dumpster fire even with Mrazek so the 24 1st will be top 10. Then Edmonton will be an even bigger dumpster fire in 27 after Drai and McDavid walk away.

Yes, like I said, Van and Vegas are feasting on the dumpster fire teams in the Pacific. Edmonton, Calgary and San Jose are all dumpster fires right now.

Statistically, Atlantic > Metro > Pacific > Central. And Pacific/Central are damn near equal. Pacific has 3 of 5 worst teams in the league. That alone negates any argument you might have about it being the best division. Vegas and Van are just feasting on free points against the dumpster fires teams in their division.

Vegas is 2-0-0 in Pacific. Van is 4-0-0.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Oilers_29</b></div><div>And odds are they will still make the playoffs</div></div>

They beat Nashville and Calgary. Two of the worst teams in the league. They're getting outscored 18-44 in their other games. 1/7 of the season is already over, they'll need to go on one hell of a tear to make the playoffs at this point. They have a bottom 5 defense. They have the worst goaltending tandem in the league.

Edmonton has made some dumb decisions in the past, but this would take the cake. They're still a bottom 5-10 team with Blackwood in net.

Thread: kakko and hubey swap

If you think his value is as high as it was in 2021, then Rangers could just send Wheeler and a 1st for him. Cuz Wheeler put up back to back 91 point seasons, so he MUST still have crazy good value.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Finski</b></div><div>So you have inflated your equation firstly if you believe that 7 players will score 60 points. Or then perhaps your eyesight is just bad.</div></div>

No. YOU are estimating 7 players over 60 points. YOU put 7 players in the 60+ point range. Then YOU made another post showing 7 players that YOU think will get over 60. The only thing IVE done, was point out how massively over inflated YOUR estimates are.

Thread: Points expectations

I already said what it was. I took the median of every player within their expected brackets, added them up and YOUR numbers are an expected ballpark 970 points. For reference, the Rangers players had a combined 743 points last season. They had 4 60+ point players but you somehow think they'll have 7 this season.

Thread: Points expectations

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Finski</b></div><div>But again this is skewed since some players will have 0 points. Most players will have under 10 goals (defenseman) or even 0 goals. Do you really think Shesterkin and Quick will combine for 20 points? Or the possible call-ups I put in. Blidh doesn't get a game is my guess, so there goes another 10 points. So again this is why this is an estimate post. It is what I believe each player is capable of and the results are not drastically different from last season (when it comes to the placement of each player). Some players replace others in this ranking (form last season).</div></div>

It says X-X points, not X-X goals. I also didn't count the goalies at all. The expected point totals are 25-30% too high.

Thread: Points expectations

Taking the median points per player, this is a total of 970 points. That is anywhere from 323-970 goals. Since most goals have 2 assists, it's safe to estimate around 400-450 goals. That obliterates the Rangers all-time highest scoring season and would align them with peak Gretzky era Oilers.
