One thing about Katz is he might not want to put out the money for an new arena but when it comes to paying players he will pay.

He's been on 5 teams in 5 years ahaha. Good for him, bad for oilers. Win win IMO lolol.

Oilers just have to overpay on everyone. That's just the way of it these days.

They kind of have to, losing team and in Edmonton.

Doug MacLean doesn't like the Pouilot signing for Edmonton. Great news Oilers fans.

They need to get more creative in the trade market if signing UFAs is that impossible. Awful signings.

#Isles sign G Chad Johnson.

For once I'm guessing everyone agrees with Doug.

9:20 am the rebuild is still alive.

Exactly. I'm not privy to the offers but MacT seems to be as unwilling to pull the trade trigger as Gillis was.

Seems to be targeting/overpaying good possession players.

Just get a top 2 pick next year and we're set after that!

That's all we need, a stop-gap for a couple of years.

Never happen, nhl would make sure a struggling team(financially) in the east gets him

I'm guessing Buffalo gets the #1 pick next year.

Then trade Markstrom? Not too long ago he was considered to have franchise goalie potential, Id really like to see what Melanson could do with him.
