If they make another move it may make sense.

I think I'll wait and see something official before I believe these jerk-offs.
It still seems disastrous to lose two young assets like that.
When we could have had Buch last year
If this is true I wonder if the Oilers are doing it to “send a message”

If they dont match Broberg then you would think that there will be another deal.
Going into the season with a worse D than last year isnt ideal and thats where they will be at if they just stand pat with what they have right now.
I am wondering if these twitter dudes arent just parroting the same less than credible source.
Fake insider is fake. The Oilers very well may not match, but less than a day ago this guy said he had a source saying the Oilers would match both.
Also within the last week has said Kane is healthy and ready for training camp, which he then back tracked on saying he needed surgery after Stauffer and Rishaug said Kane did. And also said Holloway and Broberg were about to be signed by the Oilers within the last week only for them to both sign offers with the Blues within a day or two of that post.
He throws stuff at the wall and takes other people’s stuff and tries to pass is off like he’s an insider.

maybe I misread your post ( been a long day, grandpa is in the hospital with a blood infection) but it seemed like to me you said he didn't play last regular season. Looking at it now I can see I misread it. No need to be snippy.

Not dependable, none of them are worth a turd.

I hope its because management sees a better alternative to Broberg and Holloway, It hurts more to keep them at those prices than to let them walk.

I'm sorry to hear that I know the feeling.

Too many question marks, I'm not penciling anyone anywhere until after camp. Sample sized on these guys are too small.

Also a disaster to overpay when up against the cap, thus the dilemma.
And more rumors from douchebags. Who told the insiders what? Armstrong said this or some asshole reporter?
We were over the cap before signing Holloway/Broberg and short guys and needed to move a player anyways or play short guys if we wanted a full roster. We basically just added $2M in cap and shed 3.25M while already $300k over prior. So basically $900k in space now I believe
By the same logic, can you really justify 4.6 for Broberg?
I will say, this whole thing has been wildly entertaining, and it's pretty fun that we have no idea what they're going to do. Tonight I'm thinking we're going to hear about a Barrie signing tomorrow, but who knows.
Not at all.
But I’m not convinced Ceci is either. At least not good enough to win a cup as one. The #2RHD spot needed to be upgraded. This move gives the Oilers the time and the ability to accrue cap space to add one come the deadline. Ceci had to go for cap reasons.

Not ideal but I think we can bet with how aggressive this management team has been that we will be chasing a 2RD at the deadline after we accrue some cap if not earlier
