Why would you think that picture is a good way to express yourself to someone who uses words for a living? Is that your gramma or something? What is the point of this nonsense?

Still insisting Edmonton and Carolina are good hockey teams, huh?

2nd decade of the rebuild is looking great

Play a couple against Bernier, no more last.

Hall- RNH - Nash
Silfverberg - McDavid - Yakupov
Komarov - Draisaitl - Perron


Perron???

how did they get Perron back in your little dream scenario

5) Once McDavid is back, they will be able to run out McDavid, Draisaitl and RNH down the middle. I don't think the NHL is prepared for such a thing. It will be unstoppable.

U know that's funny, bc can we at least see them 3 play a full healthy year before making a statement like that...?? Simple concept

That Komorov trade would be highway robbery for the Leafs

Summer lovin......

LOL at a 1st rounder for Riley Nash. He's worth a 3rd rounder on a good day. And Komarov worth a 2nd+a prospect? Way to buy high on a forward who will never sniff 20 goals - he's shooting lights out right now but watch him regress to a reasonable shooting percentage at which point the Oil would want that 2nd rounder back.

Oh and if all you get for Jordan Eberle is a 2nd/3rd line tweener in Silfverberg that is just terrible asset management. The Oilers don't need fixing up front, they need to get healthy and acquire a top 2 defenseman, which they could do by trading Eberle.

5) Once McDavid is back, they will be able to run out McDavid, Draisaitl and RNH down the middle. I don't think the NHL is prepared for such a thing. It will be unstoppable.

No poop. Draisaitl hasn't had his season ending ending injury in his traditional rookie year because he went back to junior halfway through last season. Perhaps he dodged a bullet, or perhaps he's gonna slip on a banana peel before his 82nd NHL game.

All kidding aside, the Oilers haven't had their core intact or been injury free among key players for 41 straight games in over 6 years.....why would expect anything remotely like that to happen in the 2nd half this year?

Riley Nash didn't want to play in Edmonton, that's why we traded him for a 2nd rounder in the first place. You did know this, right?

Can we at least try and finish up the 1st half...

Apparently not.

Because it's Impossible to finish up the 1st half healthy when we have our best player on LTIR?
