Cause it helps their cap. They get a younger and cheaper winger.

Thread: This is what Id do

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nhl_oilers</b></div><div>I was just about to hop on board until I saw Nick Bjugstad as our 3c. He’s bad at face offs! We need a guy that can win some. Other than that, send Holloway down to the minors, buyout Neal, resign Smith, maybe get a decent third line left winger, then we are good!</div></div>

Benson and Holloway should compete for 3LW. If neither cuts it, make a trade when the season starts. You could sign Smith. With thus team Neal still fits well within the cap. He might have a better season starting off without covid.

Thread: Bruins Off-Season Rask Retires

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Gofnut999</b></div><div>Right cause they have so many young forwards that average 22g per 82 games. LMAO.

That’s pretty solid trade for both teams. I could see down grading the 2nd to a 3rd or mid level prospect. But outside of Oilers parting with their 1st or Broberg it’s the only way they are getting him. Nothing else of interest in EDM for Boston.

That Flames trade is garbage for the Flames however.</div></div>

As an Oilers fan I would do that Debrusk trade.

Thread: In a Flat Cap World - Play the Rookies

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Wilbur</b></div><div>I watched most of Bakersfield games this season, Lavoie is still more than a year away. He showed some flashes, but he is really not very interested in Dzone play. He will also take Ozone penalties, but to be honest not all were deserved.

Hopefully he builds on his rookie year and gets better in every part of his game, because he has that amazing shot, he needs to figure out how to get it off with less time and space.

Niemelainen was impressive and might be better than Jones is today, plus he is 6'5"...

Broberg will spend at least a few weeks in the AHL, but Samorukov could surprise, but he is coming off shoulder surgery. Only Holloway and Bouchard can realistically be expected to be contenders for roster spots.

Skinner needs another year in the A, plus he is waiver exempt for 1 more year...</div></div>

I agree with most of with what you are saying but if Benson is not ready then he will never be ready. I think Skinner should be ready to back up in the NHL but not play as much as would be needed if Mike Smith is the other goalie.

Thread: Cause ya

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>themacriley</b></div><div>Yam for Tuch trade probably isn't going to work. Khaira contract is heavy by about half a mill. Saad contract is light by about a million to million half. Larsson contract might be on the light side as well. Also the Kahun trade probably won't get that, at best a 7th round pick. Even if we qualify him, he's not signing a high enough contract for compensation.</div></div>

I'd just like to upgrade on Yamo, I know small guys can be good in this league but I just can't see him not getting hurt a lot. Ya Saad can get more but that's all the money and term Id give Larsson.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>GoodIdeaAtTheTime</b></div><div>That definitely gets you Reinhart. Is probably even an overpay.</div></div>

Probably? Pulujarvi is still going to improve. A big body who goes to the net and hard to knock off the puck perfect fit with McDavid. I'd rather use Yamamoto if that's possible.

Thread: Bigger defence

I don't like Larsson at 4 mil unless its less years. I also don't like him at 4 years. I think he has to be 100% healthy to play as he did this season and cannot see it being repeated for 4 years. I would love to get Saad but not Tatar. Olekisak would be a good add.

Thread: Playoff built

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>ON3M4N</b></div><div>How is it highway robbery? Bear is a 3rd pairing RHD (something Boston doesn't really "need") and the 1st is going around the early 20's. If this is pre-expansion then Bear would need protecting and wouldn't be in Boston. If it's post expansion then my guess is SEA takes Ritchie which means now by trading DeBrusk we'd need a 3LW (assuming we re-sign Hall). We'd have to take this package and turn around to find exactly what we traded away.</div></div>

Bear for Debrusk straight up would be a win for Boston. Use other assets to get a 3rd line winger. Bear is a puck moving RH D. They don’t exactly grow on trees. He is just starting to develop.

Thread: Offseason

Bear and Jones just to get rid of Neal. That’s insanity. Giving up on bear or Jones would be a terrible idea, both good puck moving D. Just need more time to develop.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>oilersfan150</b></div><div>Hall trade seems fair but not the Dallas one.</div></div>

Why not Kahun is a useful bottom 6 who can move up if needed and a pick. Will Oleksiak command more than that?

Thread: Laine

I think I'd rather take a chance on Holloway than Laine at this point. Holloway can play wing and centre, kill penalties at some point. If you didn't have to pay Laine 7 mil plus or whatever he will ask for. Holloway cheap for 3 seasons.
