The "Kapanen Era" has begun, the "Ty Rattie" era is now in jeopardy...

I really wanted him pre covid. Good speed but this feels about 5 years late. I don't mind the pickup but we seem to love our name forwards and our no name D.

 

[joepeps]

They really do have an obsession with former leafs

 

[Leafs87]

Brown, Hyman, Kapanen, Dermott.

They're getting the band back together.

don’t understand why these guys aren’t more often claimed. Teams can try them and if they don’t work out just put them back on waivers. Their cap hits are totally put into the minors. These are cannot lose claims. Smart play by the Oilers on this on.

Who are "these guys"?

Experienced proven guys, who have cap hits that can be 100% buried in the minors if it doesn’t work out. It’s a can’t lose.
What, exactly, is the negative here for the Oilers?
