This is what he said.

That's a bit of a leap from straight up saying that he doesn't support anyone.


Human does a pretty good job of it. Homosapien if we're getting technical.
Just don't use the word woman or they'll throw a fit!

What’s everyone think of Mantha? Big body RW. I hear bad and good on him. Just interested to see him with Drai
I just have a feeling we will be seeing Henrique and possibly Mantha here. Philly lose this weekend and I could see Walker
Good buy low candidate IMO. We can't pay full ticket for an impact forward, goalie and D, so we will have to get some value adds too. He fits that mold IMO.

Looks like Tarasenko doesn't want to play here.. not playing up for scouts..
-2, 2 give aways with less than 10mins TOI after 2.

Doubt he even knows we’re watching. Good thing his value is dropping. Cheap price

I'd be happiest now with Mantha and Walker, I think (if Guentzel is off the table)

I wouldn't hate Tanev, I guess. I have a feeling we won't like what we send Calgary (I think they'll want Holloway more than the 1st...)

A lot of the other names out there like - Eberle maybe, Carrick sucks, Kunin sucks, Marc Staal is kind ass...I'd be maybe okay taking on Bogosian, he's fine as a 7.

Henrique is a weird fit, another C and another C mind you who is somewhat defensively absent. I think someone overpays for him.

Laughton is an eye test guy whose fancy numbers suggest overrated - not sure he's the answer either, another C. On a hot streak right now.

I’m not sure we’re a deadline addition or 2 away from making a deep run.
We are going all in. Holland is done after this year.. He will sell the farm and will have full backing from McDrai.
He would be asking for everyone's availability including Crosby.

My name is Bob Stauffer and I know something you don't know but I'm not going to tell you hahaha
Not that surprising when it comes to Oilers employees. He can't leak anything that may jeopardize a deal or his relationship with a player .

He just drops hints until given the green light to disclose more.

Here is an example of adding two top 6 forwards. Yes, one would play on the third line. I agree we need defence, but other than Tanev nothing is a major upgrade..... So why

Draisaitl Mcdavid Hyman
Kane Nuge Eberle
Foegele Mcleod Toffoli
xxxx xxxx Perry

Suddenly your team got real deep and now you can play Mcdavid and Leon together
Nuge and McLeod are not effective centres. Their best games are played on the wings, and that will matter more in the playoffs. That’s why Henrique and Giroux have a lot of appeal.

Matt Roy would be an interesting Ceci replacement as a ufa in the summer but I think he’ll have alot of interest and likely be out of our price range.

Fabbro is who I think they should target, he’s such a smart defender with a very calm game. Doesn’t make a lot of mistakes but he always leaves you wanting more especially in the offensive zone. I think he could be a really reliable top 4 D in the near future that you could extend at a decent number, just a big gamble if he can do it this year on a contender.
