I’m assuming between this move and acquiring Podkolzin that we will be bringing back Broberg and letting Holloway walk… but who knows yet.

Room for Holloway now with Kane on Ltir, I hope they bring him back with Bro, and Pod is just the Perry replacement as the 4rw.

Emberson isn't bad. Might be a sneaky pick-up. Probably a 8th dman on a contender, but upside. Old Knoblauch hand, maybe some insight there?
Podkolzin is more Pulju than Kostin, but seeing our losses on the PK, I'd reckon he has a shot at one of the fourth line wingers.
Janmark-Henrique-Brown
Pod-Ryan (or Holloway)-Perry
Ekholm-Bouchard
Nurse-Broberg
Kulak-Stetcher
Emberson/Clifton
I mean, it's alright. Still can't figure out why we signed Perry.

We signed Perry to guarantee another shot at the Cup.

Dont tell Jimmi.
But the people who know everything here said it would cost us a first and we’d get nothing back just to dump his contract. Something about our backs were against the wall…

You forgot the part that no other GM’s will deal with Bowman…
Yes. I did in fact forget that part.

If we waive one one player and LTIR Kane we can keep both our guys. Let’s do this!

Something I hadn’t fully thought about until tonight’s moves is the third potential outcome from the offer sheets: negotiating a trade with the Blues. Up until today the Oilers really had nothing to negotiate with, Armstrong could just sit there and say they’re happy with whatever outcome happens knowing that it was more likely than not that Bowman could only match one or the other. But now that it’s out there that there’s a fairly simple solution for the Oilers to keep both of them it’s given them the power again to try and negotiate for a better return. JJ and Bowman can put the heat onto Armstrong with how badly he actually wants one or both of these players, see if he cracks.
I will say, losing Ryan and keeping a fourth line of Podkolzin - Holloway - Perry would be an interesting wrinkle. Maybe Lavoie serves as the extra forward (if they can afford one).
I just can't see the Oilers putting themselves in a position where a Kulak trade is necessary to bring Kane back at the deadline though.

I think Bowman has made his mark today. Between today, the decision to match, and whatever happens with the Draisaitl extension, an impact will have been made.
Maybe not. Bowman might have just brought in cheaper replacements today.

Does Pavel approve? Conspicuously absent tonight, perhaps grieving on CP with some other similar minded posters
Oh they’re around my friend…other sites as well:
You have to admit that a 970 save percentage is quite good, let alone in the playoffs….

I get every impression that Broberg does not want to be in Edmonton so why would we try bringing him back?
The only issue still left is Kane returning. It seems we are likely banking on an major injury to a high end player, or else trading away other players. Maybe Kulak in a bubble if we got rid of another piece, but likely one of Ardviddson.
I hate to say it, but I hope the team is not healthy this year ......

Protecting your top assets… he was an 8th overall pick and he has cup finals experience now.
Teams dont win by losing all their most valuable young pieces for nothing.

Kane is getting surgery and will miss months. Not sure how much of the season that will equate to though.

Hmmm. So he's exercising , but made a deal to lose his chance at a top 6 spot by holding off on surgery? So is he gonna chill till the TDL?
Why exactly would he do that considering he publicly complained about being in the bottom 6 and playing time.

I'm not sure what you are saying here. If we match the OS, you can't trade the player for a year. So how are we putting pressure on Armstrong? By demanding a different trade maybe that doesn't involve those players? Is that what you mean? I suppose you could say "I'll give you a 5th round pick for your 2nd pick or I'm matching on Holloway". I guess that is completely allowable.
That poster is talking about on ice save% obviously, lol
