I get so many New body style HD ford owners who are pissed ...the cheap body can’t handle anything but pavement and very little weight on the box

If I needed a pickup I’d go Tacoma/Tundra just for peace of mind

No, it's called retarded.
- Marwood

saw this after my post

So we’re weaponizing cap space 3-4 years from now when the team should hopefully be good? Instead of doing it when we sucked these past few years?


That would be (frank)ing retarded

So I typed in weaponizing and retarded into giphy and got:

I honestly can't wait to hear from you when it happens.


- LordHumungous

I'll probably go dark. After the Stanley Cup loss I stayed away from here for a couple of weeks. I would treat this the same or more.

Team is awful and we need all the assets we can get. What’s retarded is not considering all potential scenarios to improve this trash heap of a hockey team

Absolutely. We found my Dad a 2009 Tundra and man is that product bulletproof. Great Truck. Not sure if Toyota has maintained that standard however.

With the price of fuel ?

Two firsts we gotta look at it.

see how bad they want to get rid of him, keep asking for more. Play the game

Don't worry bro...we'll be there for you.

Trading for Lucic would be worse than losing game 7

You guys really don't seem to understand the difference between LE and Lucic.

Oilers desperately need to get rid of Lucic to free up cap space and, well...addition by subtraction and all that.

Canucks fans often forget LE is even on the team. He's not a problem that we'd move younger players to solve. Unless perhaps you're interested in a mint condition Derrick Pouliot.
- YeOldTimer

No desperation here. There's a number of ways that don't involve taking on another 6mil cap hit. We're discussing this because the possibility came up in the news.

If you think the Oilers gain much of anything from swapping 6mil 4th liners, you're beyond the pale.

Catastrophizing our position in an attempt to sway value judgements does no one any good. It's 6mil either way for Edmonton; Loui's is a touch more palatable (hence the value difference), but only a bit.

Lucic 8th pick and Puliarvi for the 10th ,LE, and Goldy

Make it Virtanen and I'd consider it.
- MaximumBone

Both proposals suck, but adding Virtanen would make him the only bonafide NHLer in the deal

I’d rather not handicap the team an extra year when Bo Horvat will be 26/27 years old

If you want to trade for future assets then they should’ve though of that a long time ago when they were busy trying to make the playoffs

Hey Max. Bone,

Relax.

You'll get there.


- LordHumungous

Not if Holland gets the job

Absolutely. We found my Dad a 2009 Tundra and man is that product bulletproof. Great Truck. Not sure if Toyota has maintained that standard however.
- LordHumungous

Yeah my dad has a 2011 and he’s used it plenty and drives it pretty much daily since he’s a contractor. Plus he always waits way too long for oil changes and it still runs like a beast

I find it hard to believe that the same company makes a Prius

It would probably be better asset management to swing a deal where Seattle takes Eriksson two years from now. Lucic is equivalent to David Clarkson - $5m of dead money, which cost Columbus a 1st, 3rd and "decent young player" Karlsson to get rid of

They were trying to make the playoffs the last few years, the rebuild has only been going on for 14-16 months

It would set the team back when they were moving forward.

How do you justify an extra year of a garbage contract?
