Rumor: Trade Rumors & Proposals Thread | Get Us a ****ing Goalie Edition!

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Yeah it's possible but I think new jersey is still trying to win this year. Markstrom has injury concerns and Allen is the better safety net.

Who knows though. Maybe someone acquires Vladar from Calgary and we get their backup.

This is fair, but I'll say if the Devils also lose Markstrom, that's a the fork in their year, they're done, even if Allen is still there.

Then the team absolutely needs to add a top 6 forward. Drai has literally nothing to work with and RNh and Hyman are shells of themselves.
When Corey Perry is your 3rd best scoring winger and he is on the 4th line (where he should be) you have a problem.
If we can’t fix goaltending than we have to outscore our problems and we need another forward to do that.

Agreed. The upgrade from Arvidsson to Rakell or Marchand, is more of impact over pickard to korpisalo imo.

would be pretty big but seems borderline impossible at this stage. the asset situation is as limited as the cap situation.

You'll be pissed off regardless what we do. Some people here cannot be pleased, and it doesn't matter in the end. Something I've learned over almost 20 years being here. So I'm very much aware of the whining bitch fest that goes here on a yearly basis.

No, I’ll be pissed off at what they don’t do.

So far, it seems like they made good adds but they don’t matter when the guys paid to stop pucks aren’t doing that.

Welcome to one of 3 days in the year where I wish I had TSN

 

[Paralyzer]

Exactly my point.

 

[McDoused]

I wonder if you can flip Arvidsson back to Nashville, he's still liked there and they have cap space. Then make a further move for someone else?

He'd have to waive, just an idea, I assume I'm not the only one who's thought this.

What about Arvidsson for Sissons?

It doesn't save a lot of cap space but it gets us a very nice center.

Sisson's is as slow as molasses on a 4th line that would already have Perry

My gawd I would love that, but I was thinking more Arvidsson for 2026 4th, but man if you could get a decent piece back too? Giddy up.

Once he's moved, you make a bigger trade for Rakell or someone else.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Stauffer mentioned him last night

 

[elmeroil]

Stan probably doesn't even know it's trade deadline day, he's too busy thinking Reaves is the best waiver wire addition. Too bad they think after last night Skinner can win the cup.

No 3 on 3 in the playoffs, they're cooked without a miracle.

I’ve gone to terms with the following today.

If no goalies are moved, I will be sad but not upset. If goalies are moved and it isn’t to the Oilers I’ll be pissed.

The asset situation is still fine.

We're just at the point where the team would be moving pieces that would make some people unhappy.

This would be huge. Based on term, I'd have to think Savoie would have to go sadly. If not him, O'Rielly

Most teams have their goalies set, this is the only org trying to win wandering the wilds.

Congrats on the dumb post.

Rakell is kind of another geezer but he's underpaid for his production and signed for awhile yet.

Putting aside the cap implications of adding him I wouldn't be surprised if the price was both of these guys not just one of them.

 

[slaman]

We're definitely not adding a goalie. Stauffer essentially confirmed it yesterday and on Tuesday.

Sure. He trades for Frederic and Walman but he doesn’t know it’s deadline day.

Can’t take some of you seriously.

 

[Canovin]

Without a doubt adding Rakell would be more of a difference maker than Pickard--> Reimer

 

[Zerotonine]

If goalies get moved today I’ll be upset. If no goalies move then whatever I get it. We won’t do well but I get it. Takes 2 to trade.

Who actually needs a goalie out of contenders besides us? Everyone set except maybe canes

 

[slaman]

I'm predicting we bring in Rakell... But how do we fit him in the cap? If we waive Klingberg and Skinner, does that free up enough space?

 

[oXo Cube]

If they can't get a goalie then they need to add a difference maker in the top 6. Almost no matter the price.

Need to be better than the competition everywhere outside of goal to have any shot.

 

[soothsayer]

Ya, the goaltending thing is not happening.

The Oilers need to build themselves up to at least being better than they were on paper this time last year. I think they're almost there. (Walman is better than Broberg.)

If they add a legitimate top 6 player, they'll have surpassed last year's team. If that player is someone like Marchand, then it's not even a question.

This is good so far folks.

So I'm expecting Anton Forsberg or something lol
