Rumor: Rumors & Proposals Thread | If Babcock is Our New Coach Will Players Want to Come Here?

[Zguy370]

Gudas after ending Matthews season is a fit in Toronto?

Don't kid yourself, we went through it with Manning

 

[Bring Back Bucky]

I wonder how Coffey is going to like taking orders from Babcock. This organization will probably hire buchberger to take over from Coffey.

Bring Back f***in Bucky Time

 

[McDrai]

Didn't he take out Matthews last season?

He’s taken out a lot of players. I’ve lost track
He did take Crosby out of the Olympics

 

[Bring Back Bucky]

Man no thanks to Debrusk. We don’t need a guy who gets 5 ESG per year. We also don’t really need him to get 20 on our PP. I would rather a Mason Marchment for the salary cap dollar than him.

I think they'll have to settle for mikheyev and Bunting

 

[McDoused]

you mean salary wise?

That sounds like Debrusk

Yes someone who makes 6M or 7M.

Debrusk makes 5.5.

 

[McDoused]

Also stauffer kind of hinted that if the Oilers might retain 3M on Nurse to get something good back.

That was back before McDavid was part of the GM Management team.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Also anyone catch Stauffer on his distressed asset comment?

He was said that its from a team that was supposed to be competitive but that team is now rebuilding.

With the other clues he provided earlier, that makes me think the Oilers are after Boeser or Debrusk.

Can you tell me which segment it was on? I'm going to listen during my workout

It would have to be someone who's really good and cheap.

The whole point of moving Nurse is cap clearing. Keeping 3m in dead space for 4 years makes no sense unless whoever is coming back is on a dirt cheap deal.

 

[McHelpus]

Also stauffer kind of hinted that if the Oilers might retain 3M on Nurse to get something good back.

3 million is insane retention. No way.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Werent they pretty down the road of signing Boeser before he decided to re-sign with Vancouver at the 11th hour?

If we get Boeser, I would actually be very happy.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Toronto's getting McKenna. Would Knies fit the bill?
Also did he specify winger? If not, guys like Kyrou, Hellebuyck, etc might also meet that description?

Kyrou makes 8.125 doesn't he?

 

[McTonyBrar]

Yes someone who makes 6M or 7M.

Debrusk makes 5.5.

then it may be Boeser.

 

[Tarus]

Also stauffer kind of hinted that if the Oilers might retain 3M on Nurse to get something good back.

It would have to be an actual good return, not a powerplay specialist winger with a bad contract.

 

[McTonyBrar]

No I'm not going to tweet it. I just want to hear it.

 

[oXo Cube]

Latest rumours have our summer looking something like:

Sign Dickinson & Murphy for money we might hate
Trade for Debrusk
Trade for Levi or Cossa

Would prefer a better top 6 Forward and taking the goaltending position more seriously.

I'm not worried about LD. Sign someone cheap. One of the easiest things to find at the deadline is a 4/5 dman

Literally my doomsday Summer.

But it's also more or less what I'm expecting to happen.

 

[foshizzle]

Also stauffer kind of hinted that if the Oilers might retain 3M on Nurse to get something good back.

That would be so stupid. Just keep him at that point.

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

If we get Boeser, I would actually be very happy.

Copp, Compher, Gibson, Chiarot?

Are they distressed?

 

[belair]

I know it sounds like Dickinson is coming back, but if he doesn't, what about Laughton? He apparently wanted to stay in LA if Smith was staying

How about both?

 

[McTonyBrar]

That would be so stupid. Just keep him at that point.

He's requested a trade. There is no way we keep him

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

How about both?

Both guys at 4-5m would be a crazy risk cap wise. Dont think we can or should swing that

 

[CupofOil]

Also stauffer kind of hinted that if the Oilers might retain 3M on Nurse to get something good back.

That's what I've been saying, no way can the Oilers move that full contract without taking on some pain so to turn Nurse into a somewhat positive asset they'll have to retain. For 3m retention it better be something really good because 3m dead cap for the next 4 years is quite a price to pay.

You can see already that Bowman is going to F this up starting with the whole coaching fiasco, the rumors of retaining significantly on Nurse in a "hockey trade", this distressed asset idea, most likely re-signing Murphy and Dickinson to bloated deals. Hard to feel confident after two botched summers in a row and the constant pissing away of assets.

I think this one.
