Speculation: 4 Likely Trade Destinations for Jeff Skinner

[archangel2]

WTH! Why would they give him a NMC?

Because the oilers--FYI--this is more wishfull thinking by an oiler blog than anything else

So Ottawa is going to replace Tkachuk... With Skinner

People really are stupid

The OP lists a fringe oiler fan blog that is trying to run Skinner out of town

Sure and then see the ops post

Do it Ottawa

Jeff Skinner hasn't been on a playoff team for a reason. He's as one dimensional as it gets. And now he is slow. He has zero trade value.

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

trade em to the hawks for hall.

The oilers won’t win the cup until one of the prodigal sons (Hall, Eberle or Yakupov) return

 

[Peasy]

Would be hilarious if he gets dumped at the deadline and doesn't make the playoffs again.

Also hilarious Jeff Jackson thought after making it to 1 game away from the Stanley cup that Jeff Skinner was a missing piece and more needed than a Holloway, broberg or Mcleod.

threads like this need to be locked and deleted.

This is no different than the Huberdeau wants out thread.... some obscure "source" that isn't remotely reliable basically making shit up and OP (same as the Huberdeau thread not coincidentally) posts it as "speculation" so the terrible thread stays unlocked

Why would anyone trade for this bum?

Jeff Skinner bringing his curse with him anywhere he goes.

Cup favourites

Oilers xGF% at even strength is currently 3rd in the league, yet their shooting percentage is 2nd worst in the league with the talent they have, and they currently have just a 17% power play which ranks 22nd in the league. I hate the Oilers a shit ton, but I am also not naive - their profile still suggests they're a sleeping juggernaut that is going to go on a hot streak soon here.

He already cost them two RFAs to offer sheets.

1 month into the season and already buys remorse. Either that or a click bait article. Tad too early IMO. Needs time to build chemistry.

Click bait article by an oiler blog site that comes and goes like a bad habit

Sure, you can have Killorn for him straight-up.

WTH! Why would they give him a NMC?

Thats actually insane to do on a one year deal for a run of the mill player. I cant remember if Hossa got a NMC in Detroit, but at least that'd reasonable for a star player.

 

[jjniner]

Stl will give you Krug?

 

[benfranklin]

I love love love that he is going to be traded to a non playoff team.

 

[benfranklin]

He has a full NMC. So he has final say in where he goes and I do not see him waiving it for the teams mentioned. Oiler fans can wish upon a star

WTF?! In what universe does he get that? Ughhhh stupid Oilers.
