I should have made some sort of bet with you.....

Not even trying to be a jerk, it doesn't matter but,

Waived: - [EDM] D Travis Dermott waived by the Oilers
Literally the LAST team in the waiver wire order picked him up. 31 teams passed on this plug. And ONLY cause the Oilers broke a Minnesota defenders hand in a freak incident last night.

I’m fine with the prediction I made. In fact I’m the 1st reply on this thread to say I was wrong, so what’s with the gotcha? If you were so confident, you would have made that bet, nice hindsight 20/20 attempt though.

I've just never done a "gotcha" before because I'm not that type of poster.

I guess I've let myself get down in the gutter here.

I feel bad about that. I just want to read and talk about hockey, and not have a hate-on for a particular team to the point that I derail the topic. But perhaps I've played into that here.

So once again, please forgive me Mods I couldn't help myself.

It's okay, I forgive you. I have that effect on Leafs fans.

I think he can fill in on the left side for a team with injuries. He didn't really add anything to the Oilers but he also played mostly when the team was not doing well. The Oilers were likely hoping to use him on the left side in the minors, I think I read they are badly lacking left shot d-men in the minors.

For those interested, this cost Minnesota $13,125, paid to Edmonton and not counted against the cap.


Players claimed this season: 17
Total compensation: $490,500

It's a thread involving an Oiler claimed on waivers, what exactly were you expecting?

Banter is two-way. You give some, you get some.

You liked the giving part, but the getting part proved too much for you.
You are the mightiest master of slander in the snow desert.

Don’t whine when you can’t handle the banter back.
Oh, another one. Even polar bears are running scared lmao. I enjoy your rage.

Kapanen: playing well
Brown: playing well
Hyman: reached heights he never could have dreamed of playing with Midtthews

We signed Dermott to be our #8 D. Minnesota claimed him because their blueline is decimated. Absolutely nothing to see here.

you're forgetting someone, which is strange considering you'll see him on your cap for the the next six years
