Again I'll say, put Arvidsson on LTIR and fill some roster spots. Getting Matheson or Jensen is much easier with Arvy on the shelf.

I also wonder if you could get Giroux out of Ottawa at 50% on the cap.

Unless Arvi is guaranteed gone until playoff time, it is pointless getting additional players using his cap space. Same reason why we aren't using Kanes cap space because he's expected to be back before the playoffs.

Trouble is not playing today, despite being healthy. They have recalled somebody.

That would be an awesome pickup. Could see Ottawa doing us a favor and trading him to the Oilers for cheap

And then when Arvi comes back what happens?

Rangers have multiple deals on the table involving Trouba but they all need his consent to waive his modified no-trade. The sense is Trouba was going to sleep on it last night and perhaps decide today.

I have a weird feeling Trouba will be an Oiler. I am normally wrong every time fyi.

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

I'd take Trouba but not sure how he could possibly fit under the cap

Fancy 3-way trade or retention is the only way. See why I said I am always wrong?

 

[CantHaveTkachev]

holy smokes, they want him GONE

 

[LevelingSolo]

Plz no to Trouba

 

[Dazed and Confused]

For Trouba, I'd guess Buffalo.

Still in-state (albeit the other end of it), and they're dying for a shake up + a RHD.

 

[Mr Positive]

If I'm Trouba I'm calling that bluff.

No one is claiming a contract that big for a player doing so badly, and one who will be disgruntled as well. I do believe a trade could happen but only with retention. That only happens if he waives

 

[Scrapin Ice]

Sorry NYRs can't afford Trouba (for a number of reasons) but are willing to help you out ...will take Braden for future considerations.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

And then when Arvi comes back what happens?

I mean you stretch out his recovery so he's ready for the playoffs. It happens.

That would be an awesome pickup. Could see Ottawa doing us a favor and trading him to the Oilers for cheap

Heck it's doing Giroux a favour too, he's not getting any younger and wants a shot at something.

Hope you’re wrong. He sucks.

Because he’s bad.

 

[Thomas Tatar]

Hope you’re wrong. He sucks.

He may not be the best defenseman, but his hard play would be very welcome in the playoffs. Look what Vancouver did to us with Zadorov, Myers, and Soucy.

 

[oXo Cube]

Trouba is the exact type of bad player id expect Oilers management to fall over itself trying to acquire.

This can't be Edmonton though. The money just does not work at all.

That's a contract that you should have to pay picks for someone to take.

Okay, fair point and I agree.

It’s also one way to get that loophole closed.

Weird. That's what my wife wrote on my side of the bathroom mirror.

And they lost.

Trouba can’t defend so his hitting is useless.

 

[Whoshattenkirkshoes]

Trouba ain't happening so its a useless discussion

 

[ConnorNova0929]

Columbus has a ton of cap space and I could see them wanting Trouba
