Hey Clouts, do you think the oilers should try and sign Holmstrom? Or at the very least give him a tryout. He seems to have a lot of the things that you say they need, veteran gritty bottom six forward who works hard and knows how to win. If the Oilers were to get into the playoffs, he could be a very useful tool considering his experience and previous performances.

Where the (frank) did this guy come from? Never seen him before. Clearly should be on the Vancouver board. He'd fit right in with Bieksa#3, Vantel, Fosco, Scoobie doo, Vagabond and the rest of the jackass gang.... - Iggysbff

not to say holmstrom is useless, but we have much bigger holes that we dont already mostly have filled
a week ago the players were stupid pieces of sh it, now, theyre dissected and glorified as the next greats of the edmonton oilers. I dont get it.... Its no wonder they fight to get paid... the fans and bloggers that constantly talk about them is worth the money alone
looking forward to the oilers tho. the N.W will be one hot div to watch. minny, edm van ... dammnn!! Hey clouts, just for poops and giggles, habs offer tinordi and a second for yaks, do you take it?

I don't think so. I've never heard Holmstrom mentioned in relation to the Oilers. This is not to say adding Holmstrom wouldn't be of value. He's a great player. Would love to have him.

Ummm, while I don't know Hall, Ebs and Nuge personally, I'm fairly certain they weren't huge fans of the lockout. Keep in mind how unions work (and I know this because I run one and I've been a member of several)...The majority of employees have no involvement with their union. They want no part of it. They'll go along with union decisions, and will support what the employees who are involved want. But unions, to most people anyway, is an idea that is so 1930's. The reality that NHL players didn't go against their union isn't the same as the players actually all being jerks about money, the game of hockey, or the future of the league.
The Tinordi deal is awful, sorry to say. Nail Yakupov, while unproven, is a 1st overall pick. For the Habs to get him, it would be Subban, plus Tinordi, plus their 1st round pick in 2013. 1st overall picks are worth way more than people realize.
