Rumor: Rumors and Proposals Thread: Movie Poster Edition VI- "Kenny Lives"

[McShogun99]

I expect Connor will take a discount, but Drai is likely going to ask for full value. Just my opinion of course.



Isn't the cap going up a decent amount next year?

I think if we do good these next 2 playoffs then they will both sign discounted contracts at a similar cap hits. They're good friends, like playing together and want to win.

 

[YakDavid]

I do think Klingberg is coming

Klingberg at double retention is 1.75. Has about 1.6 million in real salary left. Again at double retention would be 0.4 million in real cash to a 3rd team.

The real question is it worth the risk at 1.75 mil. Can’t see the return that the ducks wanting be too high.

 

[T-Funk]

Can we Kooch Yamo for Game 1 Round 1?

I'd say there's enough to back it up now

 

[McShogun99]

With what's available we just need to add some depth in the bottom six and a veteran RD.

 

[Broberg Speed]

Agreed. I think Bouch signs a pretty reasonable bridge deal, and banks on the fact that he is defacto #1 PP guy now, and will sign monster contract after his bridge is over.

Bouchard had a handful of good games all season. So fricken few. Last night was probably his best game of the season and he was rotten on the PP. Gave up the offensive blue line twice. Still his best game of the season.

Ekholm is the Edmonton Oilers power play point man.

This is my thoughts as well if we make some real noise again this year and next I think they not only sign but sign at a discount to break more records and win a cup or two together.

Everyone is getting traded to the east.

And that means he had no friends?
Holland knows his job isn’t done he said so last night. Let the east pay big for rentals. Grabbing Ekholm and guys with term is better for us.

Imho we are the only real improved western club. LA is a bit, depends on how Korpisalo plays.

 

[Pass the Saitl Sauce]

I dont think Bouchard will be 4.5. Maybe if he completely pops off. Holland has shown that he grinds downs guys with no arb rights. Hes probably going to be around 3 if I had to guess.

Bouchard is almost minimum getting 4m just based off last season. Dobson will be a comparable contract. His agent should be looking at the oilers RD depth after barrie left and play complete hardball, oilers won’t want to go into a season with ceci- desharnais- kesselring

Edit Bouchard might be prime offersheet target I don’t think oilers can afford long term and have to go bridge

He is what? 29? He can still skate. His worst year as a player on a garbage team

What does he do now that is very bad? People are sounding like he is a big MAB

So Taylor Hall was just put on LTIR, so his season must be over, because he can't be on LTIR and play in the playoffs, the league said that lol

Actually they were apparently talking about trading for guys on LTIR and activating them for the playoffs.

If true then trade him right now !

 

[Old Boys Club]

Sheary and TVR just make too much sense. Vet RHD with 950k cap hit, pending UFA, pushes VD to 7th dman. Sheary is a LW/RW that can play up and down the lineup, has a 1.5M cap hit and has 20 5v5 points in 12 min 5v5 toi/g.

 

[Canovin]

That's the new rule now?

 

[Oilers in NS]

Haven't had a chance to talk yet but we are definitely looking for a forward and maybe a dman. Expect 2 more moves.

It should also be pretty obvious too lol. Holland pretty much stated last night 1 more move will happen. He usually goes further

100%

Rishaug is having boners about Ekholm now lol

mine moved last night
It moved
Eat more mango

No, they said you can’t trade for injured guys in LTIR and stash them till playoffs.

 

[Broberg Speed]

Yeah, I was on the Bouchard bandwagon for a couple of hours and then I read all the fanboy comments; snapped me out of it. It's unbelievable.

He should be aggressively shopped on the market.

 

[WaitingForUser]

If true then trade him right now !

Why do you hate Evan so much? It obvious Ken wants to keep him and Broberg long term and they play opposite sides?

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Can we Kooch Yamo for Game 1 Round 1?

I read that as a typo...thought you meant Looch for Yamo until I read the playoff part then it clicked .

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

No, they said you can’t trade for injured guys in LTIR and stash them till playoffs.

I feel like the difference isn't what the league thinks it is, but whatever. lol

I was very worried with that give away at the blue line on the PP.

No

It never stops with Bouchard but he's apparently the f#cking "de facto guy"

Bouchard can't be trusted in that position. It will cost us everything.

 

[WaitingForUser]

Once he learns how to control the bumper position at the middle blue he will be fine. Our PP may suffer for a little bit but he will get it.

I feel like the difference isn't what the league thinks it is, but whatever. lol

There isn’t one but my guess is they got word we were going to do it and said nope

Ridiculous hyperbole.
