Nuge Mcdavid Hyman
Podkolzin Drai somebody goodish?
Kane Henrique Arvidsson
Janmark Stern Brown

Perry
Kappanen (maybe traded)
J. Skinner

Honestly it's not an awful forward group. Kind of puts our team together a little bit.

Bob Stauffer: size in bottom 6 and a depth d (zzzzzzzz)
@Whoshattenkirkshoes looks like your source a couple days ago is gonna be bang on again like how he was regarding Henrique last season.

Where did he even say that? his show isn't even on nor has he tweeted..

Thanks! Appreciate it. I get crapped on by some here.

Let's find out and see...

I just tuned in 880 ched just minutes ago and that's what I heard from Bob. (Assuming its not a recap/reroll of something he said previously). Still aligns with @Whoshattenkirkshoes says though and rishaug lol.

 

[Whoshattenkirkshoes]

So the one thing I'm hoping is that we add a depth 4C because if we don't I would assume either Janmark plays 4C or we call up Ryan

If we don't add a 4c I no joke think D. Ryan gets called up lol

Ask your friend if he was ever on here named SpeedyTurtle haha

Why would he demand a mid season trade at this point??

He can go wherever he wants in 4 months time at the dollar amount he wants, if that is what he really wants to do (which I don’t).

Test run a competent franchise before committing for the biggest deal in hockey.

Again, I don't think it's likely, but it wouldn't surprise me. This team has grossly mismanaged it's assets his entire tenure. Eventually he will have enough of that if we don't turn things around.

He literally went to game 7 of the Stanley cup finals last season. Just ridiculous.

Third line would beat the puck square. Watching how Arvidsson manages the puck makes me lose hair, and Kane isn't far behind even at his best. I think they just have to find a way to make Arvidsson go away somehow. Can't play in the top 6, falls over too much and too risky with the puck for the bottom.

Nuge McDavid Hyman
Kane Draisaitl XXX
Janmark - Henrqique - Brown (I'm very cautiously optimistic they find their legs even if the offence won't be the same)
Podkolzin - XXX - Perry/XXX
Skinner

I think this is the way to go conceptually, but there are a ton of different ways to swing it depending on Kane, etc that are impossible to forecast.

I like your lines better than mine tbh

Especially if that 4 c and winger with Drai are decent.

 

[Tarus]

By mixed signals, he means "no one I know in the organization has a clue what I'm talking about"

Seems like a nothing burger.

 

[Jarvi]

And then the team proceeded to give away a bunch of productive players, including some of the young talent that was critical in helping us get there only to bring in 30+ year olds who can barely get by.

And it took McDavid having an all time playoffs to get there. Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.

 

[MoontoScott]

If it's Arvid, he probably prefers Cali.

Arvid+2nd+Pickard for Gibson 25%

Please substitute Skinner for Picard in your equation.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

No, that would be unwise in case Gibson gets hurt.

Also why the hell would the Ducks want our trash to begin with.

Sure maybe he decides to let them know he’s not resigning in the summer but a mid season trade request before a playoff run is ridiculous.

I'm not saying Pickard is a great goalie but on any given night I would take him (marginally) over Skinner. He's a lot cheaper next season too. Anyway, my post was partly in jest. It won't happen.

Let's ask Drai who he prefers, Stuart or Pickard

 

[McTonyBrar]

f*** Kane and f*** this management. If f***ing bullshit like depth pieces is all we're going for and NOT EVEN A TOP SIX WINGER, fire this management NOW

He'd probably say "I'm not answering that question, I defer you to the goalie coach."

But he also said things can change if Kane is out till the playoffs

I think I heard Bob basically said minutes ago (not in exact words) the Oilers deadline plans have to do with what happens with/to Kane.

 

[MoontoScott]

Joking aside, Pickard is a great deal for the team at 1.0M per season.

 

[Oilhawks]

People have mentioned the trade demand in these threads.... wdym how would I know? Because I can read.

Instead of being purposely obtuse, you could address what the poster was really asking: “how you do you know it’s McDavid that asked for the trade”

Way to stir up shit and act like it’s nothing. Lmao
