extremely hesitant to reacquire him.
his term and dollars would be extremely important.

think id throw him in the top 6 and put perron on our 3rd.
does penner even have the will and effort level to be an effective checker/scorer?

- hugefemale dog77

Yeah, thats what im saying, give him a 1 year deal and see if he can prove himself. If not, no risk.

Negative:
-EDMs D is still sh*t. No top pairing guys. Ference is an upgrade on whitney, but not enough to make EDM a playoff team

"I think Craig MacTavish is doing very well as the GM and the Oilers will be a playoff team next spring. His summer isn't over, but I have confidence he'll get the moves done he needs to. It's going to be a great season. "

So after you ripped on Mac-tarded for months and gave him so much sh!te over the draft and doing nothing, he has finally received your approval? Good to see the lithium is working well.

I'll take Pancakes any day over Joensuu or Eager...

Crazy as it sounds, I think Eager could still bring it. No idea on Joensuu. Heard he has moobs and needs motivation.

comments from oiler fans like your location doesnt help the never ending struggle we face either...
- hugefemale dog77



that location status was from some idiot pretending to be an Oiler fan just to try and make Oiler fans look stupid, remember him saying that Landers potential is better than Malkins, or some poop like that?

Ugh to bringing Penner back. Some Oilers fans are too fond of re-treads.
- TheTaoOfSemenko

upgrade just for the sake of it.

ive been hating on it since the idea popped up. and now another blogger mentions it and im trying to rationalize it.
I should remove my head from my azz and continually remind myself this is HB

what if we call it square this year, but you pay half next year??


for realz though, is that even allowed under cba rules?

- hugefemale dog77


No idea but if it is allowed I bet Buffalo would do it.

I think it may have actually started with clouts (no surprise there)
when he mentioned whitney, lander and someone else for lucic.

that one was a banger..

There's not a better 3LW that EDM'll get for free, I'll tell you that much.

not crazy, I always hoped he would. but certainly a longshot at the very least. he solves so many problems if he could.

I've got a lot of optimism on what Eakins can do with Eager. It'd be great if he came out of camp excited to be the 3LW.

I'm interested to see how Hamilton does. Some TO fans have said they liked him. Played fairly tough comp

Nothing is free, and you assume he wants to come back. While I assume Cloutier made up all that soap opera nonsense about him and MacT, I dont think Penner left on great terms. Just dont see it.

I don't think he comes back, but I'd love it if he came back. Had a really bad last season thanks to a 3.3 SH% which is horrid. Shooting at his career ave. he'd have had 7 goals for 19P in 34GP. That's great for a third liner. I think he finds his groove in EDM n they could have him for a steal for 1 season.

I hope Eklund is right for once with this

I agree- I think Eager (if no injuries) will click with Eakins... and add a touch of intel to eager's speed and ability to hit and its a win win

Only downside is that they are trying to bring in a better work ethic and penner is not the hardest worker....

He is slow and lazy... if he changed those 2 things he would have already been signed already...

THIS!!!!
Although I think it is a long shot, but if he can stay healthy, not take stupid penalties, the dude is a monster with crazy speed. Should be able to give the other team fits in a 4th line checking role.

I'll take Penner 1,000 times out of 10 over Jones. Work ethic is useless if you suck. Penner helps EDM with depth and size. Good possession player. Apparently EDM will keep Hemmer if the right deal isn't there. Hemmer was great with Penner.
