Byram to Buffalo is surprising to me. I'd really like to know what they're playing having all of Dahlin, Power, Samuelsson, Johnson and him seemingly locked up for the next three or so years.

That's a lot of fireworks if they think they can add a big time player.
Buffalo most likely drafting a C
 
We’re pretty crowded at fwd now but I’d still like to see Lavoie get a look in the top 6 down the stretch.

He’s done everything the team has asked, he’s playing with a ton of confidence and he’s a huge body who can really shoot the puck. Give the kid a shot in the top 6.
Maybe next year. The rest of the year is building chemistry with new guys and trying to build momentum. Cant see them trying that unless he is injured.

Erik Johnson is only signed for this year, Ryan Johnson is signed for next year.

They have a few in the system too.
 
even if its a bit of a cherry picked stat, having 5 of the top 8 5v5 goal scorers over the last 3 years on one team is kinda crazy
I think that's just a compiled list of Oilers forwards and forwards that are currently on the market. No rankings involved.
 
Still thinking about how KH used the word veteran defender and not depth defender yesterday. This was the language when he was looking at Ekholm. When he was looking at Kulikov and Kulak he used the word depth not veteran :naughty:
To me, that sounds like a depth guy that’s insurance for Desh.

Ahh that makes more sense, figured I was missing something without guys like matthews being up there

As a Foegele replacement? That would open cap and insert youth into the lineup.
 
I like the trade. Henrique is a solid 3C. Don't really know much about Carrick, but hoping he can help as a 4C. The 1st round pick being traded doesn't matter to me when that pick won't help this team short term for a cup. Here's still hoping Ken Holland trades for a top 6 scoring winger and/or a 2nd RHD.
 
Henrique @ $1,456,250 and Carrick @ $425,000 does look cool on capfriendly

Do we have any more wiggle room to pull off another trade? Would be nice to upgrade on defense or top 6 if there is an option. I’m assuming one of Foegele or Ceci would need to be moved to make room
 
With no real RHD upgrade out there I’d be ok with Provorov, as he’s still miles better than Ceci even on his off-side. Would the Canes give up a 2nd for Foegele as a rental? Or some other Eastern team? Ceci to a team with little RH depth like the Sabres for a 3rd? Then flip those picks plus a few decent Oilers assets for Provorov and Roslovic at 25%.

Henrique McDavid Hyman
Nuge Drai Roslovic
Kane McLeod Perry
Holloway Carrick Brown

Ekholm Bouchard
Nurse Provorov
Kulak Desharnais
