NO!!! I've watched a ton of Oiler games the past few years and his game is garbage. He can only score or get points on the PP which he will never come close to sniffing if he is in D.C.
Signing him would be like the equivalent of the Pens signing Jack Johnson, very stupid.
I live in Alberta. You don’t have to preach how many Oilers games you’ve seen. I know exactly what he brings to the table.
I praised his versatility, not his scoring ability.
I’m pretty sure only 5 or 6 of his points came on the power play.
I specifically said if we could get him for a sweet deal, not Jack Johnson term and money.
You obviously didn’t read what I wrote past the name and you obviously don’t know enough about the player to make such an emphatic response. If you had a legitimate gripe, for example, his deteriorating foot speed I would give you the point.
He is what he is at this point. He’s a bottom line guy who can play all positions, is good in the locker room, can play tough situations and is a hard worker with a nose for the net. If for some reason there is no interest in him right away, then he’s worth a look for pennies on the dollar. That’s all I’m saying.
