there are Reimers and Fransons on the UFA market.
- DoubleDown

Actually there aren't because both Reimer and Franson are RFA and give Edmonton some leverage to sign them to reasonable contracts, whereas UFA are completely free to sign wherever this wish and are typically overpaid.

The only way that signing Boyle is even remotely possible is if Phaneuf's contract is moved and the chances of that don't appear very high. Nothing to see here.

I do think that Boyle would be a great fit in Detroit, Tampa or Carolina. I could also see the Habs pursuing him if Markov isn't signed.

If the Red Wings sign Boyle their average age would go up even higher. Surely they must be on the verge of going backwards with all of those old codgers.

And the Rangers with Richards, St. Louis, Lundqvist, Moore, etc probably will get worse soon. I think their playoff run is a fluke.

We do not want Thornton, Boyle, Marleau or anyone over 30 who is going to cost us young assets. If we were close to being a contender, OK do it, but we are not close at all. Unfortunately.

Obviously not that proposal but I could see the two teams doing something a little crazy.

Bennett. He has the upper-body strength they look for in a player.

Edmonton has 2 goalies signed next season better than Reimer. And MacT has said countless times that on D he is looking for a top 2 guy or nothing.

So pass.

For

The Oilers' 3rd

Oil need the pick so they can draft another untouchable, otherworldly, player who doesn't live up to his draft position

Is Phaneuf of interest if so what would you pay? Realistically and don't tell me Sam Gagner.

Lets start with Phaneuf and Reimer, and they can start with sending Scrivens our way. Build from there

I'm not interested in Phanuef and his contract. Hopefully MacT is on the same page as me but you never know.

And The 4th period says the Leafs ARE interested in Gagner.....

This time last year Dubnyk was definitely NOT the problem with the Oilers and only ignorant idiotic Leafs fans failed to realize how great he really was.

If we could unload Phaneuf for a 6th rounder I would do it.

There will be a market for him this summer. Let's hope the Leafs get rid of him.
