Ouch. The Moulson situation is just sad. 4 more years.

Honestly, I would take a 7th round pick just to clear salary for Moulson and a 6th.

People think my trades are not fair.

ADD ANOTHER 1ST THEN. IDIOTS!

- ImThatGuy

My favorite is when people know absolutely nothing about a player (and it's obvious) but give their full unbiased opinion about that player... And then get upset because people call them out about how that (frank)er knows nothing about the player..

But are they looking at us? It's easy to say all this but Im not sure anyone of these happens.

Oilers need someone better than bogo and they know it.
I don't think girgs value is high enough to be the centerpiece of a deal for the Ducks d-men
And Yandle? We'll have to overpay like crazy to convince to finish his career in buffalo.

Come on expansion draft. Moulson will look good in a Vegas uniform.

So we get to match an offer... that worked out great last time.

I just don't think he'll stick around if he got an offer to play a bigger part of a different team, and he is a talent (not knocking it out of the park this year or anything) I'd just want to get something for it.. specially with our luck he'd pull a Briere and go somewhere in conference and score on us every chance he got

So you're afraid someone will offer sheet him? Come on now....

There's like a 5% chance of that happening. If you go back and look at the guys that have gotten offer sheets, they're not exactly the same type of player as Girgensons.

I want to see the Oil finish as far back as possible even if that means Toronto gets a better player. Their refusal to address their defense issue has gone far too long and should not be rewarded yet again.

- sskkoo1


Watch them get the 1st pick again. I wonder what changes the NHL would make then.

No they changed that rule, because of just that. guys were being buried in teh Minors with 5+MM contracts. I think it is a max of 300K, it might be 500K
- ImThatGuy


It's $900,000.

McCormick is on LTIR right now and if I'm remembering correctly, he only had a 2 year deal. This would be the 2nd of that, so he'll fall off the books after this year (I could be wrong though).

Actually after thinking about it im more afraid someone wont. He signs a 2 year deal here is miserable gets that UFA tag and then runs...

But bottom line, all im saying is if you get a decent deal, take it

- sippyd


The changes should have already been made. No team should be able to pick 1st in back to back years. I'm okay with no team being able to pick top 3 after having picked first.

He's going to be here more than 2 more years. You're panicking for no reason. He doesn't get UFA status until he has 7 years in the league or is 27 years old. He's on year 3 right now. So minimum we have him for at least 4 more.

So Patrick Kaleta has only played in 16 games this season....

Weird.
