According to Pierre LeBrun; Johnny Gibson is willing to waive his No-Trade clause for Edmonton Oilers.

What do you think about that?

Considering Skinner is statistically rhe worse starting goalie in the league, it's an upgrade. But that's not saying much. Gibsons numbers aren't great but he's stuck in Anaheim where he gets peppered with shots often. Considering starters are obviously not often available if he's the best you can do with half retained you do it. Literally cannot be worse.

Could be the spark the team needs honestly. When he is on his game he's an incredible goalie.

Would be awesome...and we would finally see how good our team is with an actual NHL goalie...or we will see how bad our defensive system is when he also shits the bed like many others before.

When I saw the thread title I thought it was a done deal, but it’s not. Fake news.
Me too and I was pretty excited about it. Not so much because I think Gibson is a good goalie but because a change would prove the Oilers are aware they have a problem and are interested in addressing it. Kind of like what they did last year with Campbell. But alas, still no evidence that this is the case. Shame on the OP, whoever he is. I’ve never seen him on this board before.
