Now we know they are both on the block. Pretty standard media tactics to start preparing a fanbase for a player exit, start dragging them a week before they're dumped
"Sure you lived by the ocean, but have you seen the North Sask?"McD and Hyman should put their recruiting hats on and call Stamkos.
!!!? yeh?ESPN speculating that Edmonton traded for Phillys 1st rounder (32 OV)
The bolts only would go as high as 3 x 8 years. The loyalty to their long time captain is absolutely ruthlessMcD and Hyman should put their recruiting hats on and call Stamkos.

yep. it happened. weird!!!? yeh?
Do it.So will probably cost a couple 2nds and maybe a 3rd to dump Campbell?
Crazy. Now we can all flip out.yep. it happened. weird
for our '25 or '26 1st rounder
JJ said our staff had him ranked higher than 32. So yeh they think they are getting a steal here.Seems weird to move up with a future pick when we have cap space to clear and playoffs to load up for..
Someone must really like the kid
DAMNIT!!Missed opportunity to call the Flames Uranus
Some people really love this guy and expect him to break out next year.
I think we got a good pick.
Interesting thought trade the second because you basically just made a second round pick to shed some cap and sign a ufa. Thats forward thinking GM stuff if that’s what it turns out to be.I was just thinking this while taking my dog for a late night walk and it's a wild theory but here me out.
My theory is that the Oilers traded for this pick because they won't be picking in the 2nd round tomorrow and wanted to get something out of this draft in the high rounds and they took O'Rielly to be a long term McLeod replacement and will use the extra cap space to bring in a stopgap 3rd liner to replace McLeod until O'Reilly is ready. 2nd+McLeod+maybe some other stuff+Campbell to somebody, San Jose, Chicago I don't know. Obviously a complete shot in the dark but bookmark this post if something like this happens. Stauffer with his crypticness and this trade has me really thinking crazy shit.
lol- i had the same thought the same thing. Not the same pieces, but getting a pick because they are moving out picks to sweeten the pot for incoming tradesI was just thinking this while taking my dog for a late night walk and it's a wild theory but here me out.

I’m not sure about the Campbell part of it, but the idea of moving out McLeod in order to free up cap space to keep Henrique around is intriguing now that I’ve thought of it. There’s definitely the possibility that they could see O’Reilly as a replacement for what they’re hoping McLeod will become, and if you keep Henrique around it keeps the current team better. Plus you could break in O’Reilly on Henrique’s wing to have him act directly as a mentor to what you’re hoping him to be. There’s definite risk in it, but the payoff is there.I was just thinking this while taking my dog for a late night walk and it's a wild theory but here me out.

I doubt Stamkos moves to the west but imagine Stamkos on Draisaitl's wingMcD and Hyman should put their recruiting hats on and call Stamkos.
That’s the money shot right there. He’s older so won’t be able to handle 1st line anymore so Leon finally gets his sniper wingerI doubt Stamkos moves to the west but imagine Stamkos on Draisaitl's wing
Just listened to Gregor talk about how Kane came into camp out of shape last year.
Actually doesnt sound that crazy.I was just thinking this while taking my dog for a late night walk and it's a wild theory but here me out.
