Speculation: Tea leaves round 2 Edmonton Minnisota

[thalegion]

More tea leaves that would make me equally angry to today

Stauffer says oilers aren't done and will trade for a pp d man. Has mentioned wild a few times and Mackenzie just said it, this would be almost as bad as hall for larsson as dumba is Griffin Reinhart level D with slightly more o it will likely happen tomorrow and knowing chia oil are prolly adding a pick this time


Not a rumor just speculation from listening

I am trying to understand what you just said.

 

[bleedblue1223]

RNH for Dumba, straight up.

I am trying to understand what you just said.

Translation:

RNH for Dumba = Make him/her sad

Probably bigger. I mean RNH is worth more than Dumba...then again we saw how the Hall trade went..

Maybe Dumba+ Huala lol

 

[Gritty]

RNH for Dumba, straight up.

That would be comical after today!

 

[longchange]

Chai's pretty good...Chia not so much right now though eh?

 

[thalegion]

If Barrie somehow squeaked out but that seems unlikely

 

[KGL]

Wow, if they trade RNH as well...

Going with a 19 and 20 year old as your top 2 centres is a terrible idea. Nuge is young as well, but he's far more experienced than Leon or McDavid.

Couldn't agree more

Avoid trading any more core players until next summer.

If you're banking on a rebalanced roster improving the squad then you wait for the improved squad to improve the perception of your players.

 

[Nsjohnson]

Well if that's true after today's antics I would expect Dumba for RNH to be in the bag!

 

[thalegion]

McKenzie: If they have to take more core players to effect greater culture change, that wouldn't surprise me either.

 

[exporta]

My belief is they are done dealing, and sign Lucic and Demers.

Subtract Hall add Puljujarvi, Larrson, Lucic and Demers. That's a great off season.

 

[buttman*]

Oilers are turning into a very ordinary team.

Pittsburgh really mucked it up then huh? Crosby and Malkin who were once rookies.

It's not like Edmonton's going to need veteran experience in the conference finals. The flip side of that is, how else would they get the experience?

Maybe you two are referring to the batch of "ruined" prospects who were played too early/given too much too soon?

Tea leaves, demers won't be an oiler and it sounds like 2 awful trades assuming this happens

 

[oXo Cube]

Good god what I would give to be an Ordinary team.

That's not what I think they're doing here though. I think they're getting even worse.

 

[BringBackLibertys]

Oilers are turning into a very ordinary team.

Which is far better then what they have been the past few years.

No it's not. Pujo is unproven. See Yak, MPS and hundreds of other high picks. Hall is the best player out of that group. Demers is Fayne all over again. Larsrson is good but Hall? Come on. Lucic is a necessary evil -- need to overpay for McDavid own protection. I don't think the Oil is all that scary anymore. None of Yak, Eberle, or RNH are top players. Mcdavid has a bigger load to carry without Hall.

 

[Draiskull]

Oilers are turning into a very ordinary team.

well it would be an upgrade from a very pathetic team.

 

[Mighty Makar]

Nuge for Dumba is a bad trade for the Oilers.

 

[The Blue Llama]

Dumba for Draisaitl makes more sense, to be honest. As a few Oil fans have pointed out, having two inexperienced pivots running the first two lines would be a disaster. Secondly, Russo pointed out that trading for RNH and his 6 million cap hit makes little sense from the Wild's perspective. Can't give up a cost controlled player and effectively take on 6 mil on an already cap strapped team. Plus, the trades today have set the market value of what a RHD costs.

 

[Draiskull]

Subtract Hall add Puljujarvi, Larrson, Lucic and Demers. That's a great off season.

Oilers would be very close to the cap if they added the 2 UFAs. Ideally Eberle goes for a top 4 offensive RD.

 

[Del Preston]

Spector said yesterday Fletcher wouldn't budge from just Dumba for RNH, so Chiarelli walked away.

Stauffer apparently said tonight to watch Colorado and Edmonton (Barrie?).
