Rumor: Rumors & Trade Proposals Thread | How About the RW Kenny?

[Rafters]

All 3 would be huge adds.
I would LOVE Tom Wilson on this team.

wonder if Vrana has enough negative value to get bertuzzi out of there as well...10 mill in total, move out Yamo and a couple 2nds for both at 50%... would need to find some additional capspace or double retention

 

[Canovin]

Can't wait to see the day Tullio gets called up to play with his idol Connor "Cheatcode" McDavid

 

[McVirginOil]

What if Perron were to make a return?

 

[guymez]

Oh yes he is!

[Ruok]

I don't usually post anything source wise, but I've heard something interesting.

My source if you want to call it that says the Oilers are done on D unless they get an offer they can't refuse and are looking at forwards, primarily on the wing moreso than C. The three names dropped were Wilson, Vrana, and Bertuzzi.

Vrana would be excellent if they feel he is getting past whatever the personal issue was. All for giving people chances, ala kassian.

 

[McAsuno]

Just after a caller, Stauffer was saying he expects 1 move and potentially 2 for forwards. He expects they’re done on D (which I’m okay with, personally)

One of Bjugstad/Bonino/Henrique for the bottom 6 and a top 6 winger like Bertuzzi would be ideal

 

[Old Boys Club]

Being done on D makes sense. The RH side is where upgrades are needed and more will shake loose in the summer, currently not a whole lot left on the market.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Ceci get moved for an upgrade.

Nurse-???
Ekholm-Bouchard
Kulak/Broberg-Desharnais

That's a ways away though

This was my idea great RW option for the top 6

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

Good for my fantasy.

[Macblender]

Yeah if anything we are using a stop gap for Rd for this season and looking to land a top guy in the offseason

I’m hoping Kenny has a hard on for EK like I do. Ditch Ceci, Kulak, Yamo and maybe fit him in in the off season. Ideally get rid of Campbell too even if you buy him out. Can’t have a single bad contract

 

[Jet Walters]

Yamo, Ceci, and picks for Bennett and Gudas (retention to equalize money) does make some sense. Bennett brings it in the playoffs and puts our top 6 over the top. Could play mcdrai together even.

Kane McDavid Drai
RNH Bennett Hyman
Foegele McLeod Janmark
Kostin Ryan

Or spit them into pairs

Kostin McDavid Drai
Kane RNH Foegele
McLeod Bennett Hyman
Janmark Ryan

I would think if we add on defense its more because something came up. I would put klingberg double retention in this as one.

Just curious what’s available up front.

 

[dustrock]

As someone who has Wilson in my banger league, he is great for hits and PIMs. Not great on the ol' +/-

 

[McOvechking]

Petrov + Yamamoto + 1st 2024 +? For Schmaltz (40% retained)

 

[dustrock]

Wilson 13 games: -13, 5 G, 2A, 21 PIMs, 23 SOG, 50 hits, 2 PPG

 

[Oilhawks]

When someone mentioned Klingberg, Stauffer sounded skeptical, I think the org has soured on him but who knows?

 

[Spawn]

Petrov + Yamamoto + 1st 2024 +? For Schmaltz (40% retained)

It seems like the Coyotes have been entirely unwilling to retain on Chychrun. Can’t imagine they’d retain on Schmaltz who makes more money and is signed for longer.

 

[McMozesmadness]

If we want a cheap rental on RD I think Trevor van Riemsdyk would be a great fit

Sound two-way option making only 950k

To be honest, I like Bouchard with Ekholm. Bouchard exploded last year with Keith who was past his prime. Imagine him with Ekholm who is faster and a really good passer not to mention his other amazing qualities

A Campbell buyout = 8 years of a bad contract that can’t be moved.

 

[gordonhught]

A Campbell buyout = 8 years of a bad contract that can’t be moved.

The buyout is not that bad.

Team saves between 2-3.5 mil per year over the next 4 years (the duration of the contract) . Then there is a residual 1.5 million or so cap hit for the next 4 years after that (once the contract would be over).

A really easy contract to buy out of if needed.

 

[Bum]

I generally just troll on here but in regards to Tom Wilson, I would love him playing here but would question him taking a stupid suspension in the middle of the playoffs. If he did stupid stuff in the east, imagine how amped up he would be against Calgary?

 

[CycloneSweep]

A Campbell buyout = 8 years of a bad contract that can’t be moved.

Only 1.5 mill for all of it except one year is 2.3.
If Campbell doesn't improve, buying him out and replacing him with a 2mill average goalie would be an improvement for the team and be cheaper.
