From Frank's DFO show today.
Seravalli called Ekholm this week before my source told me it was happening so hopefully he's right about Yam. I want to keep Foegele

Gudas is not a good passer. We need a passerGet eyes on Gudas' results against elites. That's why he's the guy I want.
I also think it's telling that Nurse's numbers spike away from Ceci.
What kind of results has Gudas ever had in playoffs?Get eyes on Gudas' results against elites. That's why he's the guy I want.

Oh PLEASE!!!!!Do we upgrade Kulak by doing something like Kulak + Yamamoto + 1st for Provorov?
Barrie has elite production on the PP only. 5v5 he isn't even the best on the team over the past 3 years.Nah, myself and others had Barries back his whole time here. Similarly he had a lot of detractors here. Kind of the way it usually is here.
Barrie is an elite production D. One of the best in the world. I was reasserting just that point a week ago, and two weeks ago, and..
The issues with this is...Nurse doesn't play right, Provorov doesn't play right Ekholm has played right but it didn't go the best and is much better on his left. I love the idea of upgrading Kulak or Ceci but we need a guy who can legit play right d.Do we upgrade Kulak by doing something like Kulak + Yamamoto + 1st for Provorov?
Okay, then what available right shot d is Bouchard getting traded for?
Unfortunately, there really isn't any good right shot d available. Ceci is better than Klingberg, Ghost can play right side but not well and not defensively. Chychrun is good but plays left, Provorov absolutely doesn't play right.
Looking at guys that are really available (Not Karlsson) and compared to Ceci....there isn't really an upgrade for right D.

Unless his name is EK65 I don’t see that happening. They need a coat controlled RS D man to man the PP and play second pair minutes. Like it or not that Bouchard now.We will bring in another veteran RD. Bouchard isn't in the Oilers future.
We can't add any more left d and if we are moving Bouchard for a defender a guy who "can kind of play right side" isn't really an option lol.Don’t expect a real answer. The thought process over there is “I don’t like this guy so let’s trade him. For what? I don’t know, but just trade him.”
For sure, sky is the limit there. Although I think by the end of the season, Bouchard gets himself back up into the top 4.Yeah im thinking more this offseason

He is still on MTL isn’t he?Random thought. I still thought Hoffman was on MTL lol. He has been such a whatever player now to me.
I don't think you necessarily have to upgrade on Ceci. You're mainly looking to keep Bouchard on the third pair and give Ekholm a partner that can handle tough minutes with him.
Ghost, Holl, Gudas, etc. would work.
Maybe TVR? He's cheap and having a good year.
