"What did you want me to do, get him for free?"

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

couldn't even get a 7th rounder for Yamo? geeze

 

[McDrai]

Couldn’t get a pick out of it eh? Oof

 

[Hemsky4pm2]

Kostin priced himself out. Guy was on waivers last season. Best wishes. He will be replaced.

 

[Staghorn]

Yzerman is so smart... I can't imagine being a GM and doing a deal with him, just KNOWING I am getting bent over... LOL.

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Better than buying Yamamoto out, not gonna complain about it

 

[joestevens29]

Thought this was a move Chicago would make to be honest. Add another guy with some size to their club as well as getting a guy they could take a chance on in their top 6 of cheap.

I don’t understand how Newhook returned so much but Kostin and Yamamoto receive nothing? Make it make sense

 

[Heavy Dee]

Still a ton of work to do with no cap space

 

[Dazed and Confused]

Annoyed that Klim was included in this, but as was the case with Pulju, he fell out of Woody's good books.

So that leaves you with...

Kane-McDavid-_______
RNH-Drai-Hyman
Foegele-McLeod-Ryan
Janmark(?)-Holloway-Lavoie

It's quite interesting to think back on how this board spent all of last summer derailing every thread debating Yamamoto vs Puljujarvi when it turns out the correct answer was neither.

 

[RipsADrive]

Yamamoto was going to be a buyout and I guess the Kostin negotiations were even worse than we were being told.

Flat cap is rough.

 

[Arpeggio]

Losing Kostin for nothing just doesn't make much sense to me. I don't understand what management is seeing that we don't.

Oilers drafting strikes again.

I'm not going to judge this deal until I see how the cap space is utilized.

 

[Soli]

Good luck Klim, but yikes I don't know that I would have been so quick to flush what you had here.

 

[Wookie]

acceptable trade imo
the book on yammer is out, he’s damaged goods with limited upside
and klim is proving to be a headcase

 

[Evgeny Oliker]

I’m assuming this trade also clears the roster room for Holloway to get another shot at a top 6 role this season?

 

[Frank the Tank]

Teams were paying picks to dump players.

Annoyed that Klim was included in this, but as was the case with Pulju, he fell out of Woody's good books.

Kane-McDavid-_______
RNH-Drai-Hyman

Janmark(?)-Holloway-Lavoie

It was more that he was seeking too much money for a 4th line player that can't play special teams.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

I loved Yamo and his motor, but this deal had to happen. The Oilers need to make something out of this.

Good luck to Yamo and Kostin, they would good Oilers.

 

[Arpeggio]

If I'm Rafael Lavoie, I'm using this deal as motivation to get me through the next week or so at the gym. I know he's not the same type of player as Kostin, but this team is screaming for a big body with a heavy shot. He needs to make an impression at camp.

 

[Oilers in NS]

gotta be working on something

 

[tardigrade81]

couldn't even get a 7th rounder for Yamo? geeze

Maybe a 10th rounder ?

Gross

 

[Myride]

Yamamoto yes... we knew that was coming. But Kostin...for nothing? I really liked his game and thought with proper use had a tremendous upside. Played like a cheap version of Kane... and as we all know we need grit. Let's see how they'll plug that hole......
