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

[GOilers88]

Nothin actually definitive about Kane being a distraction or souring the room. Guy gave the team a discount and chose to be here. Had 2 obvious injuries and was instrumental in helping us stave off elimination by Van just recently yet media and fans have turned on him

This base doesn't do itself any favors and act's shocked when they are called out

Right now I would say many media/fans are waaaaaay more toxic than Kane

I'd say fans are generally far more toxic than even the worst of players.

Too late Tony, we love you so your posts are being taken as gospel.

Hahaha THANKS

“Poner believes Draisaitl has been playing “at least 30% below his value” for several seasons. Coming off of a deal that earned him just $8.5 million against the salary cap, it’s obvious why he may think that.”

Sweet. So 8.5M + 30% = 11.05M

Also wtf is this line in that article:

“If things continue to sour, however, it’s not unfair to look just a year down the road to see the Oilers could be right back on the same boat with McDavid.”

Continue to sour? Who the f*** said the situation was sour?

I think the translation makes a lot of words and phrases confusing.

 

[McTonyBrar]

What does he mean by “the end”?

“Draisaitl’s agent says this is the end with Edmonton” - TSN probably

I think we should just ignore this article. It doesn't make any sense.

I couldn’t possibly care less about any of this.

You’re shouting at clouds, all I ever mentioned was the stupidity of complaining about scoring on non playoff teams.

Time for you to go to bed maybe.

You're going to get blocked or ignored if you keep it up....

You can tell it's the dog days of summer when we're spending so much digital ink on an AI translated Sports Illustrated article

Oh no!

So I'm as concerned about Leon as anyone, but seriously it's day 5 of the official off-season, there's no need to worry or rush.

Plus he has healing his very sore bones and the McWedding to worry about.

It won't happen til we have a GM. I expect it done by August though

Lol I’m jokin

 

[McShogun99]

The last thing I’m worried about is Draisaitl signing here. It’s so obvious both him and the team want to work together. It also helps that we’ve been one of the best teams in the league the last 3 years and only improving.

 

[Mr Kot]

can we not do this here

Sorry I will no longer shitpost.

Why? We got one of the best contract negotiators running the ship right now. What plan is a new GM going to sell to Draisaitl when he’s only been here for a cup of coffee.

 

[Broberg Speed]

Not sure if already mentioned but the athletic has the Edmonton Oilers with 3 out of the top 10 contracts signed for this season's free agent market with Skinner, Arvidsson and Henrique coming it at #2, #3 and #5 respectively.

I think it happens in August simply because they will wait until after McDavid’s wedding anyhow

I agree. If both sides are confident something will get done there is zero rush. Enjoy the summer and the wedding.

Let's not go overboard.

McLeod to Buffalo...I wonder if it's just for Picks?

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Who did we get for McLeod?

 

[Defsta]

Sad to see him go.

Uh… recent top 10 pick Matt Savoie?

 

[Paralyzer]

HOLY f***!

Matthew Savoie????? Whaaaa?!?!?!

Ok, I know he's not established...but still....I'm shocked we got him for Ryan McLeod...

 

[OilerTyler]

That’s a pretty good return. Wow.

 

[KlefDown]

WHAT THE f*** IS GOING ON

 

[PBandJ]

McLeod and Tulio for Matt Savoie?

That can't be right. What is Buffalo doing?
