Plan the parade

 

[andora]

This could be magical

 

[lakai17]

Wow Stan boy did something

 

[Zirakzigil]

Exactly what the Oilers do not need.

 

[DougBodger]

Who does he replace? Emberson, Stecher, or Kulak?

 

[KlefDown]

a free RHD who can skate, move the puck and bring offensive impact in this NHL economy?

can't wait to see the copium in this thread

 

[Skolman]

I don't quite understand this... aside from the fact if Bouchard ever got hurt Kling would probably now be next in line to replace him

 

[LaMasquerade]

This won't end well... why "fix" working team?

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Nice low risk signing to test him out. They will find another more legit dman later.

 

[zar]

How dumb.

Hope the put him and Bouchard out together for the shits and giggles.

Just hope they didn’t give him the $7m+ he was looking for as a UFA. Yeah, I k is he’s not getting anywhere close to that… right? …. Right?!

Can't be worse than Josh Brown lmao.... I hope

 

[Skolman]

Who does he replace? Emberson, Stecher, or Kulak?

Stetcher/Brown.

Emberson & Kulak have been very solid

 

[JPT]

Hey everyone! I've been in a coma since 2018. This guy's great!

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Who does he replace? Emberson, Stecher, or Kulak?

Emberson has been fantastic. GREAT trade. Kulak too.

Stetcher has not even been playing. They played the terrible Josh Brown the last 2 games lol

Huh?

Stetcher played last night, Josh Brown did not

Then you kind of understand it no?

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Screwed that up. Stetcher is not going to be starting in the playoffs. He's held his own, but small size. I like that they are trying somebody out. Tinkering. We know they are hunting for a good top 4 dman by deadline

 

[DJB]

Oilers gonna oil

And cant defend to save his life.. lol

 

[Czechboy]

Weird.. check here.. not too positive. Check twitter.. not too positive.

I'm gathering he is better than Josh F'n Brown, is another older guy coming off injury and most think it'll be a small contract.

So I assume the next tweet is a NMC and a 1 way 3 million contract.

 

[eojsmada]

If you're getting Klingberg from 5-10 years ago...this could be good. If he's no good, he's at least easily waived.

 

[Old Boys Club]

Free trial to see if he’s depth quality to replace Josh brown as a tweener. Anything more is a bonus
