Confirmed Trade: [SJS/EDM] D Cody Ceci, '25 3rd round pick for D Ty Emberson

[Stelmacki]

Well, his team is still ass.

Not every organization has the luxury of collecting a decade worth of 1OAs and still not winning a cup.

 

[McBooya42]

You really think the Sharks would have traded a good RHD prospect for Cody Ceci...?

You got a 24 year old career journeyman dman back

Kid had 10 pts in his first 30 NHL games before getting injured. That's while playing for the last placed team in the league. I think he'll do better in Edmonton.

Here comes the salt

You don’t have to announce yourself.

 

[Finnflash]

Oilers did well here.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

get Grier back on the line see if he'll take nurse and St.Louis 3rd for a prospect


I never thought the Sharks would have taken Ceci, period.

I don't necessarily disagree with that, just the part about getting a prospect let alone a 'very good' one.

I do think the negative asset aspect of Ceci is pretty overstated. He's on an expiring deal @ 3.2M and while he's pretty mediocre, you can do worse on defense than him for that price.

That's not remarkable for a 24 year old or anyone, really. You could say he was only getting minutes in the show because of being on the Sharks anyway.

I doubt he plays many games for the Oilers next year and beyond but could be wrong.

 

[orcatown]

Face of it Edmonton did ok. Big but is the impact of paying Broberg with Draistal and other contracts coming up.

 

[wonton15]

Mike Grier masterclass

 

[KrisLetAngry]

I suppose Sanjose 3rd rounder is a low 2nd.

Little lower than I thought he would get.

Edmonton going to keep Broberg?

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Sharks fans, what's the 411 on Emberson?

 

[KrisLetAngry]

Well a little less than I expected I expected a 2nd. Well played Edmonton

 

[Bizz]

Sharks fans, what's the 411 on Emberson?

He's fine if he can stay healthy. Probably one of our better defensive defenseman last season.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

Stan bowman showing why he was so coveted by Edmonton for GM.

Oilers are heavy cup favourites and still working to secure the future, just an unbelievable off season

Unfortunate for st louis after what looked like a shrewd move, but they are still 5+ years from making the playoffs so they have time to wait and grow draft picks/young talent

Their forward group and top pair on D are elite.

The other players on defense and goaltending are pretty big question marks.

 

[eviohh26]

Cap space move for the Oilers?

 

[CanadasTeam99]

Not really, Edmonton needs defensemen over forwards at this point, and Broberg looked pretty good paired next to Nurse in the playoffs.

It's tricky. It's a small sample size. I still don't know if they should match.. Depends if they think they can improve more with cap space back there.

I'm 50/50. Right now both broberg and Holloway have such a small sample size. If broberg plays the way he was in the playoffs, worth it. If not...

He complained over a year ago bc he was stuck in the AHL. He wanted nhl minutes. Now he would start there

Will be interesting.

Broberg and his agent have made their position clear. You think he was just playing hard to get? I see why you had trouble following the logic earlier.

So you think Joe sakic hated playing in Colorado when he signed the OS with new York?

Kesler hated it in Vancouver when he signed his?

 

[hohosaregood]

Sharks fans, what's the 411 on Emberson?

Pretty good defensively when he was healthy but that was only for 30 games. I think he might've gotten lucky and his metrics look better than they probably should be since he wasn't around post deadline when the team was at it's worst.

Did Sakic ever publicly ask for a trade?

 

[trellaine201]

Stupid Sharks! Had the Oilers in their hand and all they got was a 3rd. Terrible organization. Thanks for the gift to the Oilers..

Thanks guys. How is his skating? Is he physical? Solid positioning wise?

As for Ceci, he is a perfectly fine #5/#6 guy but paired with Nurse it was a troublesome pairing. He's a short term add and should fetch at least another 3rd at the deadline.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

I know you really want what you say to be true, so have at her

Was sakic stuck in the minors bc of plugs like ceci?

I don't even want the Oilers to match Brobergs ofdersheet honestly. Keep that space

Contrary to haters, losing broberg and Holloway (bottom 6 on Edmonton) are not going to be big losses.

I'd rather match Holloway and let broberg go. Keep some cap. Improve during the year or deadline

I'll be fine either way if they keep broberg or let him go tbh

 

[Nemesis Prime]

And here I was told it was going to require 1sts to move out Ceci

I’m sorry, how does any of this make what I said false?

Yeah that makes sense.

 

[CanadasTeam99]

It’s going to be awkward for the Oiler fans that told him to piss off after he signed the offer sheet.

Not really. You really seem bent out of shape about him potentially being matched though.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

Fair enough but they have taken steps that would allow them to be cap compliant with some simple roster moves.

I agree, step in the right direction for sure, just not having Ceci is a step in the right direction.

But I'd still be trying to move Kulak
