Rumor: Rumors & Proposals Thread | Vegas Claim & Somehow Assign Lavoie to Farm... because Oilers.

[Bryanbryoil]

I'm hoping that we can get Schultz and maybe a guy like Matt Martin to bolster the lineup before the season starts. Kane's presence will be sorely missed and Schultz is a guy that has gotten a ton of experience since leaving here.

If Andersson is available, I wouldn't overthink it. Put Kane on LTIR and figure out the cap later. Someone else will probably be injured by then.

 

[Senor Catface]

Only because I saw it posted at the end of the last topic, the Oilers home record was 8-4 last playoffs, not 7-5.

It’s a good fit. Well, we should probably hope they like some of our prospects tomorrow.

I wonder what it would take for the Flames to retain a little bit. Even like 500k

If Kane goes on LTIR anyways and sits out for the season. Would be pretty dumb to have left one of the offersheet dudes go.

Too bad we couldn’t have assurances of his corruption like Stone gives Vegas.

Aye, I miscounted a game

Plus if he is available now, then we risk missing out if we wait

Putting Kane on LTIR now doesn't make sense unless someone lf Anderssons caliber becomes available.

Andersson is a substantially better player than Broberg and would cost the same against the cap (or less if Calgary retains).

Not matching gave the Oilers the flexibility to make a move like this. Grabbing a cost controlled RHD for 2 full seasons is worth it. Waiting around until the deadline might be riskier than putting Kane on LTIR.

If Conroy traded Andersson to the Oilers and we won the Cup, he’d never hear the end of it.

For that reason I don’t see it happening unless we overpay significantly.

Matin signed a PTO elswhere

It is the second years of those contracts that were the problem--not the first

Conroy wouldn't move Tanev for us either, so I'd be stunned if he even said yes to trading Andersson here. He's as petty as the inbreds on CP.

Damn didn't know that. It's with his old team the Islanders.

From what I remember from the trade deadline talk, Tanev was offered the opportunity to go to Edmonton and turned it down in favor of Dallas rather than Conroy and the Flames not wanting to make a move with the Oilers.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Bryan, Josh Brown is the toughness, I basically expect him to be a RD/RW type like Kurtis MacDermit.

 

[Canovin]

I thought Oilers didn't get Tanev because he also chose Dallas over Edmonton.

Anyone of Andersson, Weegar, Zub would solidify our backend.

Umm, that's the story he told yes.

Agree on the 3 names, Zub is the true homerun imo.

One of either “Mediterranean chicken”, “when I played at South Side Athletic Club”, “Guy Gadowski” or something about tree planting.

He has 3 years left. That's a perfect gapstop until Beau Akey is ready to take the top 4 role. Although I think the Oilers would want to re-sign

They would certainly be sure if that's their best choice after those 3 years either way. I've been wanting that player for a while.

Akey was a guy Staios identified. If we are getting Zub, I guarantee Akey is part of that deal.

Done. We have a multi-year window to win now, he would fit in extremely well.

Martin already signed a PTO with the Islanders (shocker) but I agree with the idea, the Oilers need a shit disturber in the bottom 6 one that can play a bit like Martin for instance. They do have Perry but I doubt he's an everyday player.
