Lets trade Russell and Puljujärvi to Florida for Pysyk and a pick.

If Holland could make Russell disappear then he would be my GM of the year.....imagine not having to see Lucic and Russell anymore....it’s the dream

I think i prefer autoerotic asphyxiation. With one of Jeros dates. But im still undecided.

Alfiesalad. But only because it might bring Coga back.

I’m quite impressed by this move. Might just be that we finally have a competent GM.
- Wildschwein

Only competent, though. Saying anything more would be premature.

Fixes a few things for us so I see no reason why not.

I would have to think that Holland does want to get this Puju thing settled before the season begins.....I would also entertain a Puji for
Roslovic swap as well....add in Russell just for my own personal amusement

True, but I’ll gleefully accept competent after having suffered his predecessors.

I might for once have to disagree with you on something....Legs over Jones? 🤔

Willy Legs? Lagesson?

But yeah, I find that to be quite acceptable.

Could go either I suppose. Though I do like the idea of Jones dominating down in the AHL as well.

The Jets lost Trouba and Myers this offseason....Russell would help offset those losses

I’m good with Jones getting 3rd pairing minutes which would allow him to slowly grow at the NHL level plus Jones has an idea of what to expect since he played in Edmonton for a stretch last season

I think Legs took some massive strides last year and plays a simple game that'll be more conducive to early success on a bottom pairing. I think the way Tippett deploys his Dmen has all three pairings taking a fair share of harder minutes so Willy fills the need better. It puts a damper on my idea of a Jones-Benning soft deployment pairing, but I'll take it if it works.

For clarity, I also have no issue with Jones cracking the line-up. He has all the skills to make the jump and find success. But I like the idea of Jones dominating in the AHL a bit longer to further bolster his game before making the roster.

The issue there being cap space. They're already in need so I don't imagine they're keen on taking on more.

I like Legs but it would appear we have a reverse idea on this as I would like more AHL time for Legs but tbh I’m good with either guy cracking the lineup if they earn it.....even after the Lucic trade I’m still more excited for the Condors this season and the blueline will be great regardless of which one of the two they lose to the Oilers

I don't know that I even have a preference. I just think Tippett will like Willy's style in that role than Jones'. Not a knock on Jones, of course. I appreciate his higher-octane style, but it'll depend on what Tippett prefers in this go-around: will he stick to his recent history and go low-variance or will he lean high-variance this time?

Either way...

Legs/Jones- Bear
Lowe- Bouchard
Samorukov- Day

We've already got one. Russell and Puljujarvi for Pysyk and a pick (and maybe Sceviour if they want to shed more cap).

1) Bonus heavy is irrelevant.

2) Edmonton retained $750k in Lucic's salary

3) Even if Lucic DIDNT have a NMC, who is going to want to take the guy if he continues to struggle? This deal only happened because the other guy was in the exact same boat. The NMC didnt seem to stop him from leaving Edmonton either....

Jesus mate, you’re rather confused.
