No cup for the oilers next year now.

[Monsieur Miz]

But... why?

 

[Macheteops]

Gross. It’s 1.4 so not a big deal just not a fan of the player. Would of preferred them give a tad extra to Jannark and get him signed

 

[Frank Drebin]

I guess leadership?

 

[McDoused]

Ugh.

 

[SherVaughn30]

I guess leadership?

Yup, leadership to lose at the very end!

I guess the Oilers think their in good shape with their d-group?!

What does he... exactly provide at this point? Veteran presence? He had 1 goal in the playoffs. Are we hoping for a bounce back season?

 

[Some Other Flame]

Four losses in 5 years; maybe 5th time's a charm?

 

[SI90]

Good news for oilers is they’re going back to the finals! Bad news is they’re gonna lose again.

 

[T REX]

Brutal. Ouch. Definitely not winning a cup now.

 

[ReimanSum1908]

I never begrudge a player for clinging on as long as he can; once your chance is spent, it will never come again. That, and I admire the resilience of a man who has lost in the finals over and over again, his body accumulating the strain of so many long runs, and who still wants another kick at the can.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Oilers hell bent on staying hateable.

 

[tny760]

the curse lives on!

 

[RapidFire]

Abusing this infinite Stanley Cups finals glitch isn't worth anything if it never gets you the cup win.

 

[TheNumber4]

1M for the player.

400K for the intangibles.

I like it. He's slow as f***, not great defensively, but still has good hands, hockey IQ, and a head for gamesmanship which is needed for the playoffs.

Obviously he was well liked in the room and valued, which is why he's being brought back.

 

[Oilslick941611]

This is surprising, he looked done to me. But its 1.5 mil, no risk here.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Gotta give this one the yikes
He is as cooked as you can get

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

But why

 

[rec28]

Well, at least we’re guaranteed to make the SCF again.

/2 SCF losses in a row is equivalent to a cup win, right?

//…Right?

 

[Regal]

Looks like another finals loss then

 

[Mr Kot]

Hmm I wonder if we can break the curse when we reach the finals by breaking his shins before he plays a game.

 

[MikeK]

Nothing like signing a washed up old geezer who was a healthy scratch multiple times in the playoffs. EDM just got to do EDM things.

 

[SwedishFire]

Feel bad for Janmark, but Im guessing his contract is not done, cause he wants a better than 1m contract.

The good here is absolute that Lavoie is not given his RW spot, he has to earn it, surpass Perry. It will be Great for him. Cause I want Lavoie to be the 3RW next season.

Holloway 3C Lavoie.
I preferd Henrique to be that 3C, but we will see.
I Wonder what Oilers has up their sleeve.
