ARMCHAIR-GM TEAMS

Thread: Sabre-Rattling

I’ve been paying attention plenty

You don’t need the 4th line to score a ton..chip in here and there. Use these guys to kill penalties locking shots digging for pucks and keep the puck out of your net. Archibald and JJ are very good on the PK. They chip in once in awhile on the offense. Exactly the type of player what you want on your 4th line. I don’t see Benson in that mold, Mccleod hasn’t really shown any real battling effort so far. Maybe he has that in his game haven’t seen it yet needs to find it quickly or he won’t have a job on this team. Don’t know enough about Marody but if he doesn’t play big he won’t find a spot in Edm either. The team needs guys who play a big game.

Sure and the AHL was a watered down mess. I’m good with JJ and or Shore not returning but you need proven NHLers in there to take those spots. Neither Benson or Marody are those pieces.

Thread: Realistic Prediction

Rakell to Edm I believe is a real possibility. Also I believe as a real possibility. They won’t get any first round pick in the deal unless Gibson is involved somewhere in the trade

Thread: Sabre-Rattling

The Oilers fan base will lose its minds if the team comes to camp with three rookies penciled in to the opening day roster. I can’t see 97 or 29 being happy with that scenario at all. No chance this happens. They must have 4 lines of NHL players period. The kids can push for a spot and maybe garner some NHL time later in the season. This is a make it or break it Offseason for Edmonton. The single most important off-season in franchise history.

Thread: Sabre-Rattling

I too looked at adding Skinner in mine but in the end I just see him as an anchor.
Gusev is a small player not what this team needs. I looked at the possible uptick in scoring with him but again the players size doesn’t fit.

You have way to many kids on this roster and in the end you picked up Hamilton and immediately exited the playoffs. If this team makes the playoffs.

This roster gets a D minus from me…not that my opinion matters…lol

Thread: Edmonton Oilers 2021 - 2022 Roster

Sorry this roster states exit stage left. This looks like more of the same. I believe David is on record stating he’s staying Bos or he’s hanging them up. So I don’t see him coming to Edm. Likely a one year deal to stay is more likely. Hoffman at 4M doesn’t play big he can score for sure but maybe Tatar who plays a bigger game and can also score would be the better fit. I do like Hopkins but is he really a 6 plus million dollar player away from 97 & 29 on the PP…. I think not. Never has been a great 5 on 5 producer. So what are you paying for? I think Ullmark would be a nice addition but a 5 year commit at 4M for an unproven…Yikes that’s a risk.

Thread: contender cup

None of those guys are at risk through dispersal draft. Marody will be exposed before Benson, staticky and Mikko would get exposed before Skinner.Caleb Jones and Kris Russel would be and possibly Klefbom if they don’t believe he’s fully healthy. It would be an easy decision to not protect Oscar. Seattle wouldn’t likely grab him and it then becomes one less player to worry about for the expansion draft.Not sure Lagesson actually has enough games played either

Thread: Oilers V6

What do you when Oscar comes back? I don’t think Ullmark comes close to 4.5. Maybe if Chiarelli was signing him oh wait no that would be 7.5. I think I’d rather have Zack over Wayne at this point plus I think he’ll stay in The 6. Slater won’t be back Tippet didn’t play him. There’s gotta be a better defence piece out there to spend 4.5M on. Why not just pay the 1.5 more and keep the leagues leading point getter in Barrie. Hoffmann at 4M you think you have to pay that much for him?

Thread: contender cup

Getzlaf is not leaving ANA his family is to entrenched out there. Schwartz doesn’t play big and is often hurt. Good when not hurt no size. This team can’t rely upon Mccleod as the third line C as the option. JJ will be brought back as 4th line C and penalty kill. I really hope they don’t spend 6 on Hopkins but I fear your correct they will give him atleast the 6. Instead of spending it on two guys. Or maybe he surprises us and let’s Hopkins walk for the payday he thinks he should get. Buyer beware there at that dollar figure. Hopkins gets his money but on a bad team. Drieger and skinner not anywhere good enough tandem Holland is bringing Smith back for next season for sure he pretty much guaranteed it at the end of season presser.

Thread: Depth and 5on 5

23 Points PP and 25 points 5V5…how exactly does he ruin 5v5. It’s Ok if you want to run him out of town but your asking a rookie to put up unrealistic numbers and then he doesn’t people will call him a bust. I believe Nurse will have supplanted Oscar on the PP1. Oscar can play less with that shoulder if he even returns and for how long.

Thread: Does this goaltending work

Well it is make belief after all... I don’t see why the sharks would consider that and the goaltending....if your looking to get the GM fired after the upcoming season sure. Sadly I believe they come back with Smith and Mikko for this upcoming season and they retain Hopkins at an undesirable dollar. They will upgrade one maybe two LW spots. Someone please explain why no Oil fan thinks they should make bringing back Barrie the leagues highest scoring Dman back. This team finally has its hands on a bonafide elite offensive Dman the team has needed for years and everyone is dismissing him in place of a rookie. Do you really believe Evan will come in and put up 60 points in his first full season? Pay this man his money. Move Bear sign larrsson, RH D becomes Barrie,Evan,Larrsson LH is OK sign a vet Dman for a 1M for one year and bobs your uncle. Sign Coleman and a Center with the left over dollars. If Tyson walks away and they plan to rely on Evan the team can expect more of the same. Hopkins will cost too much go a different direction and use his money in Barrie and some decent depth who can score 5 on 5.
