Alright guys, I'm at Liberty Donair in whitecourt ( best donair in AB) ...I was here when they traded for Ekholm last year...Eberle? Carrier? Do i stay here until a trade is done?

I hope it's warm enough in Whitecourt to sleep in the parking lot buddy.

Oh how naive we were.

And yet we were slightly better at drafting back then.

Have to break his mothers basement window first

You know the answer to that. Get a tent. You might have to stay until the deadline is over.

2 questions.

First, what number would Eberle wear? (We all have those 14 sweaters in our closet still)

Second, his wife is from the area isn't she? Maybe he resigns with us at a team friendly discount?

I wonder if they are looking to move Ceci and Foegele out in Eberle and Carrier acquisitions to open up more cap space for next year to cover off some of the Brown overage.

If there was some way to get Foegele and Ceci out and both in at 25% we would kill two birds with one stone. Accomplishing that is likely in the pipe dream category though.

I think they’re jr. high school sweethearts from Regina.

I don't see the point of moving Foegele out for Eberle, you need both to add depth for the playoffs. When you're looking at Eberle's stats, remove all the PP numbers, because he's not getting any here.

Switching Foegele out for Eberle just makes us smaller and easier to play against imo.

Any rumors of Duclair wouldn't mind seeing the Oilers go after him for the right price.

Except when you look at playoff stats for both guys side by side it’s a clear win for Eberle by a mile

I wouldn't do it if I could avoid it, but it's an option to clear space to limit the damage on the Brown deal for next year.

I think there was talk late afternoon yesterday he’s trying to get extended by San Jose.

Foegele isn't hard to play against but I agree with what you are saying. We need some size in our top nine.

Please get Carrier

That should be priority #1 (a dman). There are a bunch of forwards out there still

ABSOLUTELY THIS. Without question.

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

...Huh, what?

 

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Eberle playing his 1000th game in Edmonton would just feel right

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

 

[mkatcherin00]

...Huh, what?

Blah

I want Carrier

 

[Heavy Dee]

This guy called Edmundson

 

[ManOfSteelI]

Uhhh, what?

Sure, if you believe that playoff numbers are repeatable and not just the result of small sample sizes. I'm not saying it's wrong to believe that, but I'd still rather have both for a playoff run vs a bit more cap space for next season.
