He scares me. Struds had a pretty solid point. Bring him in if you choose, but banking on much more than a third liner and you are setting yourself up for failure. That and if he's wanting 3-4 years buyer beware.

Not sure of his relation with Viserios

Gregor suggesting Ryan Sproul.

I really do wonder what kinds of guys they bring in on the backend and for PK for Yawney. Feel the guy can develop players. What other borderline busts are out there for him to work with?

6. “He has a huge shot, a huge shot and he skates well. He could be a powerplay specialist with his shot, but he is also a bit of a freelance defender. I see him as a low risk project,” said Craig Button when I asked him about Sproul.

I like this as well in his big prize package. Lol

Boner is just salty because freelancer took his job.

1 year deal max 2 year

Which is fine. I think a lot of the guys that are available should be considered that.

Totally. Just because we need players for our top-6 doesn't mean we don't also need players for further down our roster.

I'd expect a welcoming party like Hendo's send off

Spend the cap space on Justin Faulk you cowards

Carolina would love to spend their cap space on Kris Russell and or Milan Lucic
- BINGO!

fixed

- BINGO!

If Russel was moved out and the cost wasn't too bad I'd take him

No Faulking way

Dear god, no. Did you know his on-ice, even strength goal differential was so bad last year that he almost completely negated the "McDavid effect"? McDavid was on the ice for 95 goals for and 76 goals against at evens while Letestu was on for just 14 for and 30 against. This is as a 4C that didn't play tough, matchup minutes, either. It was a relatively soft-minutes 4th line and he still got utterly (frank)ing cratered.

I'm not gonna blame this all on him (his wingers were lacking, too), but he truly had an abhorrent year (along with most of the team). 4C is a spot that we can fill for half the price and see miles better results than Letestu has brought during his tenure here. I'm also wary of Todd trying to force him on the PP again and taking away valuable offensive development for our right-shooting younger guys (Puljujarvi, Strome, Benning, Yamamoto).

Apparently there's the new analytical go to to 'protect' certain players & blame the goalie for the SV% of players on the ice. Maybe the goaltending was just poor while Letestu was on the ice?

There was plenty of both on the Hendo farewell thread...

It stayed on line for a lot longer than it probably should have. You would have missed the kangaroos & koala tweaking ears if you weren't up before 7am your eastern coast time.

Nobody cares about what kind of porn you watch, fatmarsh.
- BINGO!

Nyquist and DDK for Faulk and a second.

I missed it so let me know the parameters that I need to follow

Well gifs of a guy taking a poop while riding a skate board, an Asian chick stabbing herself in the eye with a fork, ripping it out and eating it, and and elephant shoving its trunk up another elephants ass, pulling out some poop and eating it to start...


It was a proper Oilers fan send off from what I understand. I went to bed after the elephants and Asian gif ridiculousness and properly getting told to (frank) off, so I didn't see the rest so they'll have to fill you in on the rest..

It was pretty much the best thread these wimps have put together in years.

Not Coincidentally, it was also the best Hendo blog since the day before MacT traded Petry. Hendo has been a whiney lil Faggit ever since that trade.

No to Grabner. No to vanek. No to perron

Just no


Somewhat interested in green, Neal or jvr.

But Neal will want a boatload. Jvr too. And we couldn’t gamble on anything beyond a couple years for green.

Now if we can jettison Russels deal, that opens up a few things. It’s the ideal move for the franchise for so many reasons

Sekera would prob be easier to move, and it’d be nice to have the cap space and be free of protecting him from expansion. but letting him go for nothing concerns me with the group we currently have

So with all that said, derek Ryan it is! Which isn’t terrible. And then we hope and pray to god puju takes a significant step forward..
