Rumor: Rumors & Proposals Thread | The Oilers Biggest Roster Need Is?

You understand there’s a difference between AHLers trying to make the team and NHLers who have a spot locked down no matter how hard they play

I'm surprised youre not welcoming to another goalie to whine about.

Stupid thing didn’t quote properly.

I love how some long time posters who think they are knowledgeable post useless stuff

Would like it if the Oil could somehow get Olivier out of Columbus.
Man is tough as nails and can play a bit ... Nice 4th line player.
Team is too soft now that our PP is not very punitive.
Obviously money needs to go out ...

He is a mean man when he fights and a legit heavyweight.

I have watched him this year ad have him in one of my pools for hits.blocks. He is a good player

Without Nurse and Kane the only other person who fights is Perry. It may not be ideal but Brown will at least provide that element if not anything else.

I am open to a hall return, in the right circumstances, but this is blasphemy.

I'd be open to Hall at 50% for J. Skinner and a late pick.
Both can't be happy stuck on the fourth line and could use a change of scenery.

Nobody wants Jeff Skinner
Flipping Buffalo bought him out and we gave him three million stupidly

Imo that was okay, just because it was only 1 year. I don't mind rolling the dice on someone with talent.

If he was making three mill they probably wouldn’t have.

Matt Duchene got bought out and is currently the best player on Dallas. It's not like knob is putting him in a position to succeed

You can only be started in the top six and shit the bed for so long before your a bottom 12 player.

Skinner was signed to play in the top 6. Hard to have any success when your C is Ryan.

 

[Took a pill in Sbisa]

Brown has been solid down in Bako. Had the best game of his season last night.

2 assists, +2 and nearly killed a guy who decided to take an instigator against him.

Hasn't he been playing on their 3rd pairing?

Ok then
Let’s double down and acquire more old offence

 

[nexttothemoon]

Honestly this is where calling up a guy like Gleason would have been nice to see what the Oil have there in him as he's looked decent in limited viewings (and yes I know that was just in camps)... but not to be.
