Lmao you remember this?

Remember it??? I was at that f***ing game. Had to wait over an hour after the game for an Uber in the pouring rain on top of it.

f*** that signing was bad.

Hopefully JJ gets back to signing the RFAs / UFAs soon to minimize the hand-wringing about this buyout.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Not expecting the Oilers to do much if anything at all. Just try and tidy up their free agents and that’s about it.

Thatmakes no sense. We need to see some improvement in our lineup and we need a top six winger for Leon

 

[Broberg Speed]

It is stunning that Campbell was passable in Toronto for a couple of seasons. He seems like an athletic AHL goalie. Best of luck to him, and big congrats to him and his agent for getting about 20M before taxes for, what, 1.1 seasons of sub par NHL goaltending? Set for life with generational wealth.

you can throw your cats a lot of parties with that kind of scratch

I expect the roof to blow off this place tomorrow when we don’t have much to show for Day 1 of FA. Not much time to get things done today and some of our players will get offers elsewhere.

I hope Janmark and Brown both get re-signed

We don’t have the money to improve much if at all.

goddammit Jack

Jack Campbell sucks

I think the significant adds will come at the trade deadline when we should be in a better position to add higher cap hit players. That is barring a Nurse trade or something similar, which I’m not expecting this summer.

 

[OilerTyler]

It was nice not having to watch these kind of goals go in this year. Seeya later Jack.

 

[belair]

To at least two years term. There's upside to both of them knowing they're both likely to play more next season.

 

[McTonyBrar]

We have close to 13 million. Your saying our bottom six wingers will cost 13 million all together? Sorry going back with this roster is not going to get us the Cup. We need one improvement on the 2nd line.

Wonder if XB could crack the roster this year?

Probably not unless he took a huge leap this off-season unexpectedly.

He was kind of mediocre and took a step back last season unfortunately.

 

[McJadeddog]

Wow, that parade had lots of people, tens and TENS of people!

 

[Hollywood55]

Wonder if XB could crack the roster this year?

Unfortunately I don't see it. He's not that good at the AHL level. He's kind of looking like a bust unfortunately. Still young though.

Sign him for the bottom six

 

[oil Leaks]

Wonder if XB could crack the roster this year?

He will need a solid off-season to be even in the conversation for a roster spot next season.

A solid off-season and strong season down in the farm will do wonders for him

Okay I guarantee you we will get one top six forward. I can bet you on that

 

[Fishy McScales]

Jack Campbell sucks

You've made that clear, but he's gone now so can you please drop it?

 

[McTonyBrar]

Not sure what was more funny. The goal or how he looked at his glove LOL

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

Almost tragic how bad the Campbell signing worked out for the Oilers, lol. Guess someone will take him on the cheap for goalie depth, good luck to him.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Remember Jack Campbell? Man he used to suck
