Klinberg back yeah or nay? (update: signs with Oilers)

[banks]

Not interested. He wasn't very good anymore before he signed with the Leafs before. He was terrible in the handful of games he did play here. Then he's been injured and out of routine/practice for a long time since.

If he wants to join the team for league minimum, knowing he'll have to work up from the AHL? Sure. Depth is never a bad thing. But if he wants more money, bonuses, or an NHL spot? Nope. Not interested.

Well he’s gone to Edmonton so this speculation is moot.

It takes a special person to choose to go to Edmonton in January.
He must really like their chances.

Watch him score like a 100 point pace in Edmonton

Just like all the other Leafs misfits that end up there. Well maybe Hyman is the exception.

He wore a Leafs jersey once, no surprise the Oilers signed him.

Oilers don't seem to have a problem scoring goals, but their D is pretty Meh (although their numbers aren't bad). Wait 'til the playoffs start and JK starts leaking chances left and right.

Vintage Klingberg.

Oilers really like ex Leafs.

They can have a bottom pair of Gio and Kling

edit: i guess he is gone anyway

 

[Dekes For Days]

Thank you Edmonton. Saved Treliving from himself.

 

[Macallan18]

would have been precious if he had been pared with OEL

 

[Menzinger]

PP needs a point man (not a shinpad specialist like we have right now). Not sure he's the right guy though.

They need that + durability. No point in adding another guy whose going to spend half his time on injured reserve

 

[Phion Keneuf]

Dude is absolute dog. Not sure why Oilers even bothered when a PPQB is the furthest from what they need. Bouchard is one of the best options in that sense.. if only he can defend.
