Speculation: Edmonton is scouting Jarred Tinordi for some reason

[Lays]

Take him for free please. The only thing he’s good at is being physical, but even then, I haven’t seen a single decent hit by him so far or even him being involved in a scrum at the least. A contract back I’d be fine with as well if the Oilers have a spare extra forward they can toss in for depth to remove McKegg from the lineup as well

Serious question here. How do we know that its specifically this bum of a player that Edmonton is looking at? Couldn't it be just random scouting of his team? Trying to get an idea of possible trade pieces for the farm team or whatever? Do we know for sure, with 100% certainty, that its Jarred freaking Tinordi? You'd think if they had any interest whatsoever, a deal would be done. This dude clears waivers eight days a week, he has no value.

Why not,calgary is the toughest team in the league bar none and kassian is always hurt

 

[Ctrain2k]

oilernation is also saying the Kracken are scouting the oilers

That makes more sense the Kraken have tons of guys the Oilers would be interested in.

I liked him with the B’s last year. Provided much needed toughness. Started stringing games together and looking good then would get injured and look bad again

 

[BudBundy]

Unless Daryl Katz needs a bill collector, “No thanks.”

 

[cwede]

Mazura would be an adequate return,
if Oil need Cap or contract relief, they can send over ~Koekkoek as well, who could take Tinordi's spot in AHL Hartford

ya but they probably want the moon and the stars for them!!

This outta solve our horrendous goaltending problem.

Sometimes teams develop an interest in a player and seem convinced they can make it work, even after multiple other teams couldn't make it work out for any length of time.

Tinordi has all the tools, I could imagine some GM scouting him thinking he'd be a perfect fit on his team if he could just get him the right partner, coach and system.

I had to make it clear how abundantly confusing I find this. We waived a better defenceman in Koekkoek already.

maybe NYR takes Turris off your hands for Tinordi . Plenty of cap space for a ufa

 

[Double Dion]

Edmonton's blue line is starting to look like the island of misfit toys. No rhyme or reason to the composition of it. You need to get an actual defender. It's way too offense heavy. The issue is no one can defend top players from the other team. Tinordi can't do this either. A player like Giordano or Chiarot would make a lot more sense.

 

[ujju2]

I have to imagine any interest that was there is now gone with both Niemelainen and Lagesson showing extremely well on the left side.

 

[ujju2]

the two best things he’s done as our GM are not trade away a guy for nothing when we already had him (Puljujarvi) and fire a coach half a season too late.

Eh, Hyman, Nuge, and Ceci contracts are all big wins imo.

This tracks. Holland loves the slow thinking defensemen of the league.

 

[Debrincat93]

thats Ken Holland for ya.
