Proposal: Rumours & Proposals Thread | Trade Cloned, Keep Soli | STAY AWAY CHIA

[Jimmi McJenkins]

I almost expect Talbot to be traded like tomorrow, maybe once Spooner clears.

To Phi: Spooner, Talbot and a 1st

To Edm: Simmonds and Wiese

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

At what point does the NHL step in and put a stop to all of this?

Hopefully soon, there's always the city and eminent domain

 

[Little Fury]

Congrats, you're on the same wavelength as the oilers organization.

Goodness don't the rest of us look foolish.

Devastating own.

 

[Paralyzer]

What? Are you bragging about this? You calling it was a horrible idea, and the fact that it's real is worse!

I'm bragging this because I said this would happen. But let's keep crapping on poor old Paralyzer because he made them sign Koskinen

 

[A91]

Not really relevant but remember back in 15-16 when Markstrom hit waivers?
Could have had a competent back-up for Talbot this entire time PLUS taking away a divisional rivals young starter.
That was a no brainer claim

Didn't you vote "no" on whether or not you wanted him fired?

I’m a proud egg hater.

If you feel the need to brag about your pessimistic predictions coming true, it's best not to end them with "suck it" for risk of it being seen as a garbage post, that warrants garbage replies.

 

[justafan22]

I don't get giving him 3 years.

Koskinen is fine but not worth that cash

 

[belair]

Nonsense. With all of its food binding capabilities, they're irreplaceable in the kitchen.

$4.5m keeps hit cap hit down. If he comes in next season and is lights out, he starts moving into crazy money territory. He just took Talbot's job.

The fact it keeps his cap hit down makes it even more hilarious.

This goalie hasn’t proven anything.

What evidence do we have he's going to come in next season and be lights out other than outright wishful thinking?

This org is still selling blind hope to the fans like it's 2010.

 

[Joey Moss]

I am fully expecting to see something bad tomorrow like Simmonds and Weise for Talbot, Spooner and 1st

 

[ThreeOfAPerfectPair]

And then sign Simmonds and Chiasson for $6x6 deals.

JFC I forgot Chiasson was just a PTO

And this is the reason HFboards is a toxic hellhole. I have every right to call this prediction out.

 

[Del Preston]

And only got a chance because of Gulutzan. Imagine how much worse the wingers would be without him.

 

[Paralyzer]

I also have the right to call out those who said he wouldn't be signed because quite frankly, who would you rather have than Koskinen out of the FAs this summer that would sign for 4.5 or less? Or would you all like to run with an AHLer/ECHLer like Wells or Skinner?

 

[belair]

He's 0.911 at the All Star break despite the fact that the sky has apparently been falling since the beginning of the season.

This is a goaltender our team signed out of Russia after our scouts did their homework on the player. He's come in and stolen the starting job. I'm not sure what you expect out of him to suddenly become 'proven' in your eyes.

Anyone who expected anything less than the Talbot deal was dreaming. What happens if we let those negotiations go to July 1st and Calgary throws their name into the mix. Or Philly. Or Carolina. Or Columbus?

Christ people--be realistic. Talbot's contract was the starting point once he took his job.

 

[Paralyzer]

Didn't you vote "no" on whether or not you wanted him fired?

And didnt you read WHY I voted no? guess not

This organization either puts their foot in in deals like this one or the Russell ones or they end up sitting with their dicks in their hands.

The Oilers require a starting goaltender moving forward. The longer you wait to make a decision on them, the more difficult it is to find one at a reasonable cost.

What did you honestly believe we were going to sign him for?

HFoil is on full suicide/over react mod....look I was hoping for 3.5ish.....but 0.911 on this team right now is pretty damn good. His numbers have fallen because of the injuries exposing out shallow D. He was around .925 before klef and russell got injured.

Apparently for 2m like the dingle heads posted earlier this year

That's simply not true. Look around the league-hell, look down Highway 2. You can find cheap starting goalies under the couch cushions if you know what you're doing.
