Rumor: Trade Rumors & Proposals Thread | No More Pacifism For the Oilers?

  • Xenforo Cloud has upgraded us to version 2.3.6. Please report any issues you experience.
Sooooo no goalie trade???
Not according to Stauffer, the team's mouthpiece. Expect to go in with this lineup and maybe another old, slow, coke machine installed on the backend. When the current sadsacks can't even muster the effort to show up most games. Imagine thinking 'this is the year!' and 'we're going all in' after watching them over the last stretch of 8 games. With the way they are playing... they might barely just gasp into the post-season at best.

This makes no sense, so just dumb shit posting then?

Stuart Skinner and Calvin Pickard are not good enough and need to be replaced, regardless of the cost.
all your posts are basically shit posting. Here take a first and a second for your ufa goalie who for his first time in his career is putting up respectable numbers.

as ridiculous as Holland was, I think even he might have grabbed a f***ing goalie by now
He tried and the only one he could grab was a done Campbell.

Let’s not pretend Holland isn’t partially responsible for the goalie situation.

So trade Stu Skinner, Akey, 2027 1st and 2026 2nd for Vejmelka at 50%, then trade Pickard and a 4th to SJ and a 5th to Anaheim for Vanecek at 50%.

No more pickles and Stu
What is this? Terrible trade offer for Vejmelka. Absolutely brutal. Chiarelli-esque.

Ah so you're quitting, have fun with that I guess. You can be ignored now though, so that's a plus for all of us.

Holland probably would have got us Mrazek by now. We would all be angry now still.

i'll say it again.

Why are the UHC trading Vejmelka again?

I think he is going to be a UFA, no? I dunno if we need to give up the moon for him, especially if we give up a guy that went to game 7 of the finals in Skinner!

Guess they are close to a playoff spot. And there is a story where Vejmelka said he wants to stay with Utah. Still, we have the amazing Stan Bowman that can shake him loose.

No it’s definitely a problem but your proposal is utter garbage.

There's no reason for Utah to wave the white flag on their inaugural season. It's not happening.

Not like we have anything of worth anyway.

lets hope they keep losing, but i dont see it happening. They are close to the playoffs, its their first season, the fans need a reason to show up to games.

I know lots of people think this team is showing it’s age but I think that’s bs.

They’ve played a lot of hockey (no excuse) but a lot of it has been them trying to come from behind after their shit goalies put them behind.

That shit gets tiring for any team.

There's literally nothing on the planet stopping them from going out there and blowing teams away early in the game. Sadly this team's offense flows through 2 individuals as the rest of the forward corps just stands there and does nothing.

But let's be real, they know their window is officially closed. It's not happening. And the Oilers have nobody to blame but themselves.

In general the fanbase underestimated how much a Finals run takes out of a team I think.

Yes, yes, some smarty pants is now going to rush in and say "yeah b ... bu ... but Florida, Tampa, and Pittsburgh did it!".

All three of those teams were solidly built at forward, D, AND goaltending.

Teams that are trying to "cheat" with a roster that's more poorly built and trying to excuse it as just "oh Connor and Leon just need to play a little harder to make up for that" and probably getting a rude awakening eventually.

Jeff Jackson had an awful summer, that continues to weigh on the team also.

Team is also I think officially checked out of the whole "sure the goalie let in a bad goal, but just play hard and get it back!" thing is out the window. Team checks out when the goalie lets in a bad goal because they don't trust these goalies any longer.
 
Apparently hockey ops was not in the press box tonight. They were working the phones

For all those still hoping for trades that bring us in top players at multiple positions, please take note that today we traded 4 assets for an injured, bottom 6 UFA winger. I can’t even imagine the asking price for a really good player with term. Other teams can smell our desperation.
