Jeff Jackson secretly registered the Oilers as an LLC in Florida this week. All the players have chipped in to rent a shared condo unit in Boca Raton.

DISCOUNT BABY. Yup Henrique loved our crowd. Another perk of having the greatest fanbase in hockey. Lets never forget for belief and hope can only lead to good things.

I wouldnt do that.
Holloway has a lot of potential and now the team has enough depth to play him properly.
f*** no. Holloway is wrecking ball.

I’m assuming based on the moves today it’s gotta be Ceci out? If Broberg and Holloway sign for 850k a piece, you can barely fit

The Oilers have on their roster right now that scored 317 goals accumulated last season
, and that is with Arvidsson only playing 18 games and other players playing parts of the season

Absolutely not, not in a million years. They could probably get a pick for Ceci.
No way do you ever throw in Holloway as a sweetener, he's going to be good.

I knew I loved Henrique. Love him even more right now. Guy wants a Stanley Cup. Mission isn't finished with this lineup.

It also helps when you get to game 7 of the SCF with most of the core intact but either way it’s been one hell of a July 1.

Can I be critical?
I’d rather have Boqvist over Stetcher. He’s never played on a good team and we can fix him. Go get him?

WHOA. Just back from Canada Day celly and learn that Henrique is back and Skinner 2 is in the lineup. Absolute home run.

Yep. I guarantee when Brown was debating whether or not to take the money, his standing ovation played more than a small role.

As RFAs don't Broberg and Holloway get like a 10% increase or something like that?

Straight up no. I'm not convinced of Holloway's offence, I think at best he tops out as a good 3rd line, 15-15-30 point guy who's aggressive on the forecheck. But to throw him in just for someone to take Ceci is not good asset management.
I really don't like Ceci's defending at times but it's true he isn't as horrific when he's away from Nurse. If they can't find a taker I guess they'll sit with him on the roster. Seeing what other middle pairing guys were pulling in FA though, I don't know if you can get rid of him and still be able to improve on those minutes with whomever you bring in. Almost just a lateral move at best. I'd really like to see Stecher given a good try stapled to Nurse.

Sometimes miracles
Outstanding day for the Oilers, truly.
I wonder if they move out Ceci and maybe Kulak, would Barrie come back on a $1Mx1yr deal.
Also the ducks are $8.8M below the floor (I think) Kane or Ceci (or both?) there makes some sense

100% and without that, I very much doubt we see the Brown we saw in the playoffs or the Brown resigning. With such a shitty year, he had plenty of reasons to move on.

No. Ceci at 1 year 3.25 could probably be dumped for a 2nd rounder.

That's too much to take Ceci. The only contract we have worth paying that price to dump is Nurse.
Worse defensemen than Ceci signed for more than Cecim makes today.

I think with Holland out, he starts to get back to where he was, in terms of connected on the inside.
From what I understand, after he called out Holland during that intermission segment, he got ousted by KH hard and was shut out from insider knowledge, but that's slowly been creeping back due to JJ taking over.
Thanks for giving the Oilers organization and their players more motivated fuel with your comment, Tkachuk. We're gonna win the f***ing cup next season, book it.
