vegas is insane, its a perennial 30g guy we are talking aboutLMAO Lavoie back on waivers lol
you forgot the part where if Lavoie ends up scoring 10 or more goals for the oilers the oilers have to give vegas the next 5 1st round picks cause thats how vegas worksIf he was NHL ready, he would be on a NHL roster given he was just offered to all 31 other teams. Nows hes been waive twice in 3 days. Shows it isn't just the Oilers that think he isn't ready.
Vegas chose Schwindt over him.
Oilers get first dibs regardless of who places a claim. If the oilers are the only claim we can send him down to the AHL. IF another team makes a claim along with us, we still get him back, but can't send him to the AHL without waivers again.
This turned out well for us, our org just got 41k out of Vegas for nothing.
If I’m not mistaken if there’s been no other claims the Oilers can send him directly to Bako which could help facilitate a trade.Didn't the Kostin Samaroukov trade happen after both cleared waivers on their original teams?
Glad to have Lavoie apparently heading back to Edmonton's depth chart. Still don't entirely rule out a deckchair move for a fresh start move like the Kostin deal. But still good to have a big shooter who's near NHL ready in the system than not.
No just a 3rd round pick to Calgary.Vegas paid us 41k for the transaaction. Do we have to give the money back if we reclaim him?

I’d still like to see them give him a chance with the big club. Maybe once they complete all their cap maneuvering they will call him up and get him in the lineup.
I actually expect the Flames (or someone else) to f*** with the Oilers so they either don't get him or they can't send him down (though that would be tough)Vegas was pretty far down teh picking order
LOL some of the takes here on RL yesterday were a bit much
Yep, he can do not pass go, go directly to Bako if no claims put in. I've long wondered about a fresh start deal similar to Kostin but personally I'd be abit surprised if the Oilers deviate to keep him on the NHL roster. If he stays in the organization, get this guy big ice in the A and continue to build up his two-way game with key situational defensive situational play.If I’m not mistaken if there’s been no other claims the Oilers can send him directly to Bako which could help facilitate a trade.

That's a HARD fit.Bold prediction.
John Gibson is an Oiler at some point this season.
So all that crying yesterday was just for nothing?
Other 2 waiver players
Nurse needs less chaos, Trouba brings more.I'm thinking that the best potential value option to fill that RD role long-term is Jacob Trouba. A three-way where the Rangers pay the third team to retain half. With Shestyerkin likely costing them $11m+ and Lafreniere and Miller needing extensions, they're going to be pretty desperate to open up space.
I know he's not the most favorable name or there, but he's a high character veteran who brings a lot of the intangibles that are preferred from a potential partner for Nurse.

I think Lavoie is still on waivers, no?We just picked up Lavoie off of waivers and signed Dermott to a 2 way deal
