Take away: "If Oilers can they'd like to add a piece" thanks insiders. I'm convinced sports writer and sports insider covering hockey is the easiest job in the world.
I would want Oilers to hold onto picks/prospects unless it's for an actual difference making players. Leon and Connor locked in for next decade. Goal should be to make 5 finals the next decade like Tampa did, not just 1 and done.
Should have kept Broberg. Oilers played Boston the other night. Bruins swimming in quicksand in the standings. Oilers looking for defense. How about Brandon Carlo? Right shot defenseman. 6-5 220. 28 years old. Oilers could use some size on defense too. Not sure about Carlo's contract in terms of cap hit or term. If they keeping struggling the Bruins might be looking for a little bit of a reset of their roster. Not much scoring after Pasta.
Yes. With 9.25M cap room wasted on Nurse. He is a at best 4/5 D worth 2-3M, meaning he is overpaid by 6-7 M. Imagine what you can do with this cap room? 2 solid physical bottom 6 wingers and a strong backup goalie. That is why K. Holland is a sucker GM for the Oilers.
What would the return be for the Oilers to complete a trade with the Blue Jackets for Olivier and Fabbro? Would EDM and/or CBJ fans be in favour? Just spit-balling.
@@Arbormurr i wouldnt trade him, but you have to give something to get something. i think the oilers will do something for sure, not sure clb is the team to trade with. good RD are hard to find.
Oiler brass - 3 Managers - THREE- had a chance to sign Holloway....3 times....missed....the least Bowman could have done was let Broberg go....bad blood there anyway with agent......but Holloway is on pace for 30 goals......Oiler management really screwed up bad. Past 3 managers - St Louis sports media cant believe the Blues luck landing the pair. Holloway was just a huge mistake. Crazy. Sure they have some cap space....but Holloway for 2.4M......very much worth it.....and give the excuse hindsight is 20/20 ....these managers are supposed to be hockey people....one word comes to mind for some of these managers .....EGO
Already have puck moving, point producing defenseman. Oilers need some aggressive defensive defenseman to help keep pucks out of their net and keep the other team honest.
We had no choice. They cost too much and they didn't even want to be here anyway. Broberg in particular requested a trade a year prior and refused to look at an extension. He refused another qualifying offer in the spring. He was more or less leaving no matter what we did.
@ …….really that’s your take? Broberg was treated like a minor leaguer……now he is not. Holloway was bamboozled and no one from the Oilers management talked to him letting him know of his long term plans…….Holloway is now a top six player and Broberg is a top four defenceman. Oilers management is back to making stupid moves! Put the koolaid down man!
@@ramalama9030 Yes it is my take. You can't force guys to play in Edmonton who don't want to be here. Dany Heatley for example rejected a trade to come here. Chris Pronger's wife hated living in Edmonton and he wouldn't stay here either. Adam Larsson wanted to leave Edmonton for personal reasons over his father. There will always be players that just don't want to be here for whatever reason. Broberg is another guy that just wanted out of Edmonton. There was nothing we could do to keep him here against his will. They got Emberson who has played well for us so yeah not every issue requires pulling out the pitchforks on management over.
Trade Bouchard while he’s still worth something, tired of watching ekholm take all the abuse, do all the defending and getting worn out covering for the whimp weasel Bouchard who non stop gives away in bad situations
Yeah buyout Mcdavid's best friend when they need to sign him lol. Also his cap hit would be almost the same(actually higher for a couple years) on the cap post buyout for all but 1 year lol

Seth Jones to Edmonton for a top prospect, 2025 first-round pick, 2025 second-round pick, conditional 2026 first-round pick. Stan Bowman essentially made this same trade in 2021. Enjoy your slow rolling disaster of a GM as he dismantles your team and future in Edmonton!
@@courts2 Seth Jones costs too much money he's a 9.5m cap hit. There's no way we can make that trade unless we send Nurse back the other way. If we throw in all those picks though Chicago might actually make that trade. Is Jones actually an upgrade over Nurse though? I'm not so sure...

imo c.murphy would be a good fit w/ the oilers.
Would be such a perfect fit beside Doc!
would love to see murphy get a chance to chase a cup. he's been a class act throughout his time in chicago.
How is trade market heating up when there haven't been any trades?
Where were you in December?

Time to win is now
How many times do they keep going out there and look for a d man and than trade them out after couple of months
How bout a real goalie instead of the ahler and back up one of skin
Canada needs to dominate this league! that should be the only priority!
Last Canadian team to win the cup? Montreal what was their strength? Not Roy, not the 10 OT wins. It was simple. JJ Daigneault. We need a JJ to Edm

Jake Evans would look great on the 4th line in Edmonton for the playoffs.
Kane comes back from injury and RNH plays 3C and Henrique 4C.
@ I’m not so sure about that. Kane will need to get up to speed. He’s likely playing 3LW or 4LW.
We have no chance of winning the cup with the current defensive lineup we have.

thats possible. esp. if clb falls out of the race. i could see Beau akey and a pick going the other way.
Would love that for oilers
Like Olivier, not sure about Fabbro.

So true, totally agree. What idiots would lose half the team that got them to 1 goal away from stanley? fire bowman , jackson and the goalie coach.
shame they don't have that Broberg guy anymore...what happened to him anyway?
it’s almost like the oilers have an offensive dman already that has a lot more potential to be more elite than broberg.
Already have puck moving, point producing defenseman. Oilers need some aggressive defensive defenseman to help keep pucks out of their net and keep the other team honest.
@tomwilson3969 that's cope
no, they are not, 18 and 4 in the past 22.....lol
Maybe Broberg for 2 1sts? ;-)
Broberg at 4.5 million x 2 isn't worth a 1st. His underlying numbers pretty bad this year as well. Got a bunch of 2nd assist tho.
Oilers need an upgrade in goal. How many more games can they let skinner lose for them?
We got rid of four young promising players for four older has been players……..who is in charge?
That was Jeff Jacksons fault
We had no choice. They cost too much and they didn't even want to be here anyway. Broberg in particular requested a trade a year prior and refused to look at an extension. He refused another qualifying offer in the spring. He was more or less leaving no matter what we did.
Well, they did acquire Podkolzin, Savoie and Emberson.

@curtiswhite6662 Oilers were bad for so long all of their fans are idiots who don't know what an OD is lol
Yeah let’s get rid of a guy who was 2nd in points in the playoffs last year. Genius
@ lmao retard he gives away double what he gets, only an idiot like you would vouch for
He's 25. Guys not even in his prime yet and he was over a point per game in the playoffs.
They shouldve bought out nurse contract at free agency. Only reason our d core and our salary cap is cooked.

The Oilers don't really have cap space and any players, which other teams might want, are ones they want to keep.
