Yes, if we dumped Brown and managed to get 75% retention that would be enough I believe.

It's too late to do that through waivers though.

I don't believe that's true - if Brown was sent down later his cap acrual would still stop. Just need to send him down before 45% of the rest of the season is done.

If we were to move Ceci for Carrier it becomes even easier.
 
Thank god for Tre to be there to protect Holland from his worst instincts.


Imo Kulak-Ceci is the embodiment of a "meh" 2nd pairing. But those two as the 3rd pairing? That's quality depth. One that actually takes a bit of the load off Nurse-Vinny and doesn't force them to do too much heavy lifiting.

if Vinny can continue to keep his head above water, then I'd be fine with them just grabbing a #7 to round out the group.


One Troy Stecher, please and thanks.

Called it!
 
Can't send down Brown before the trade deadline now so we can't waive guys to be cap complaint tomorrow so whatever trade we make for Eberle, cannot include waiving someone to be cap complaint.

There is no daily cap restriction. Cap accrues daily. If our AAV is over the cap briefly we're totally fine as long as we drop our accrual rate.
 
Well thats why they are both in the AHL now. Org doesn't think they are quite ready, so they grab a 7 d to finish the season so Broberg can stay in the AHL and be the 8th guy. Same with Holloway.
if an 8th overall dman drafted 5 years ago and 14th overall forward 4 years ago are not "ready" they will never be. time to cut our losses then, wtf is keeping them in the A going to do for us

I ain't happy with either for them, time for them to go

Broberg I agree with time to cut bait. Holloway has been injured to often to properly gauge this yet IMHO

Many of us have been saying this. I don't mind patience this year for Broberg, there will likely be a spot for him to take next season. But Holloway, I love the kid, but if you can get a player to push this team over the top, move him.

Foegele, Ceci, Kulak even Vinny might not be Oilers.

Brogberg, Holloway, Lavoie could be full time Oilers next season.
 
Have a question, if we have any cap space left after the deadline, can that be applied to Brown’s bonus?

Yes, could use it on Browns bonus. That would be relatively cap inefficient though in my mind.

I think you'd prefer to have the flexibility of having Holloway and Gagner back with the team instead, tbh.
