Rumor: Rumors & Proposals Thread | Post Draft, Pre Free Agent Frenzy

[bellagiobob]

At this point I think the Oilers are just trolling the leagues play by play crews with all of their Connors, Browns and Skinners. And hopefully the new Skinner will shortly past our goalie Skinner in career playoff points.

If Jackson somehow can get Henrique back

 

[iCanada]

I think it’s just his idiosyncrasies

There was the photos of his girlfriend celebrating the run with the wives in the booth.

Also he was hurt for like half the time. Which. Just kind of sucks.

 

[Captain Controversy]

1.3 million in cap space. Gotta sign Broberg and Holloway.

 

[Old Boys Club]

Tomorrow for the Janmark signing? Somethings gonna happen before then

 

[TheNumber4]

Okay. One cap dump for an upgrade on D and I’ll give the Cup my MINTY guarantee this year.

One more move!!!

 

[Wreckus]

Tomorrow for the Janmark signing? Somethings gonna happen before then

Yup

 

[Patch101]

I don't know if we need to hire a new GM, whoever is doing work, Jeff, Bill ... Keith. Hire internally. Great job.

 

[McBooya42]

One name I'm curious about is Toews, is he still considering a comeback?

No, he's done. This has been talked about and brought up for the past year and a half, but long covid has done him in.

 

[Ibanez]

I think it’s just his idiosyncrasies

There was the photos of his girlfriend celebrating the run with the wives in the booth.

I think he’s just a quiet reserved dude. He’s been known to be weird in interviews for years too.

Odd duck. But I like the player.

The eye test with nurse made me think that could be a thing. He seemed to call nurse down? Maybe I had rose colored glasses

 

[Took a pill in Sbisa]

They're going to pin Nuge as 3C? I thought he was a lock with either McDavid / Draisaitl.

He's our best option for 3C now

He does have a bit of a resting frown face.

 

[Reasonable Oil Fan]

1.3 million in cap space. Gotta sign Broberg and Holloway.

1.3 is without Stechers money

 

[Oilhawks]

Just the tiniest little quibble, if I may.

The skill on the team has taken a huge step with the returning players and new additions. But if Kane is gone for it, they will be losing some size and toughness that I’m not sure they really have in the forward corps anymore

 

[bellagiobob]

This is gettin’ nuts!

Happily eating crow, JJ said he’d bring back the UFAs and it’s pretty much every damn one, and Arvidsson and Skinner to boot!

I was actually just thinking of you after all of these signings, figuring you must be pretty happy after being a bit worried yesterday.

 

[Hockeylife2018]

What's the deal with the Carter Hart's and Michael McLeod's?
Can they be signed to a 2-way league minimum, stashed in the minors and brought out if found innocent?

Any gm willing to do this deserves to lose their job and more

 

[iCanada]

Eh - we can go over the cap by like 15% till training camp.

Ain't no thang.

Likely just logistics and working on other stuff.

 

[Arpeggio]

I will say I like the Perry signing less now that they've pulled Skinner and Janmark out of their hats.

Yeah I don't really get it, I'd say that Perry could fill in in the top six if there's an injury but I don't believe he can. Just a vibes signing I guess.

 

[Cerebral]

I’d be intrigued if they could move McLeod and Ceci and bring back Henrique too. However, I’d be a little worried about our team speed as Skinner, Perry, and Henrique are all pretty slow. This depth though!

Skinner-McDavid-Hyman
RNH-Draisaitl-Arvidsson
Kane-Henrique-Brown

Myself and @FlameChampion complained this into existence, you can thank us later (after the celebrations)

 

[foshizzle]

Stetcher and Brown are #6/#7 Defensemen. Something is going to have to budge on the blueline.

Stetcher is not a 6/7th d man. He played top 4 in Arizona and was excellent in that role. His transitional defence, especially in the nuetral
Zones is very good and miles ahead of Ceci. His zone exits are also good. He is a top 4 D man.

Is Skinner slow now? Skating was his biggest strength.

 

[dem]

I’m surprised Stetcher signed..

Seemed like the coaching staff had zero time for him

 

[Heavy Dee]

Someone is getting traded

 

[oil Leaks]

Stetcher looked good in limited action this season. I hope he gets a long look this season
