Rumor: Rumors & Trade Proposals Thread | Post Mortem '23-24 Season: Who Should Stay, Who Should Go & Who Should We Bring In?

[JeffSkinner53]

all I'll say for now is it's an eastern conference team and it would be a player coming back, also a large contract, that may have worn out his welcome in his current team.

Kane for Marner 1 for 1?

When you mentioned Washington, my first thought was Nick Jensen.

I don't think you should trade Kane. Even when injured he's a 20 goal scorer.

Interesting. I might keep Kane if its a long contract. Is the player good even though he's worn out his welcome?

Maybe Dennis King can fire some cryptic tweets about 5, 25, and 36!!!!

Ma...Marner? Nahhh... well let's see.. is it a D or F?

Only reason I could see for the team to actively shop Kane would be if he was fighting the team all year about getting his hernia fixed and going on LTIR.

It’s OV he’s realized the only way to get the record is to play with Connor and Leon

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Kane wasn’t in my top group of players I’d trade, but he’s a player I’d consider trading if we really needed cap.

His injuries are really unfortunate, but the reality is that it’s held him back. If he were healthy he’d be a 40 goal guy on the Oilers. 25 even strength goals is still really good, but he doesn’t really mesh in the top 6. His passing is brutal too, kind of a liability at times.

Also, nobody would ever say this publicly, but it seems he doesn’t get along with Draisaitl. If you’re trying to sign Draisaitl long term and you know they don’t get along, you need cap room, it does make sense.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Maybe its Debrincat since its a large contract and Jeff Jackson and McDavid love Erie Otters players

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Imagine Marner for Kane 1 for 1. Chiarelli would do it.

 

[McDNicks17]

Trading Kane if you've got a Debrusk or Duclair lined up seems like a no-brainer.

From Washington?

Kane for PLD

 

[Shizuka]

Only guys that immediately come to mind out east are Skinner (who apparently won't waive, hence the potential buyout by BUF) and Marner. But the latter is completely out of the question. Can't be a D without moving out a problematic $9 million player first, so... ?? Still a bit confused. Kakko is a low price point so not him either. I guess trading one price point problem for another one. Still interesting, thanks for posting about it ChaoticOrange!

I wouldn't hate a retained Skinner, but would much rather they bought him out and have oilers sign him for pennies.

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

It really does feel like we’re gonna see some moves in the next couple days. I pray Jackson knows what he’s doing, this is not the time to f*** up and take steps back.

 

[JeffSkinner53]

Kane for laine

Are you saying this or is this an actual rumor?

 

[WaitingForUser]

Kane for laine

Doubt it Kane makes half what he does and PL seems to have fallen off quite quickly

 

[Shizuka]

He's a completely one-dimensional player, who is streaky in that one dimension. I'm not sold but in your scenario, sure.. if he's willing to do that. Seems like a pretty stubborn individual though.

No problem!

The name I've heard talked about is Tom Wilson. no idea what the structure of such a deal would look like, but from what I understand both guys would be open to the move.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Jason Gregor says Jack Campbell will be bought out tomorrow.

Let's not forget that this is the guy who also said Ceci is better than Tanev lol but it could make sense. If Campbell isn't moved by tonight, they're going to have to use plan B

 

[Lay Z Boy GM]

Kane for laine

That’s so interesting but Laine makes way too much. He is a special talent though, wish he could play to his full potential. I honestly thought he’d be the next great goal scorer when he was starting out.

 

[McHelpus]

Has anyone heard anything on Nichuskin? He is what this team needs. Skill and toughness. We cannot lose Kane and replace him with someone soft.
