They're running out of time quickly. On the other hand, they're one player away from the Stanley Cup.

...getting rid of Phaneuf.

Shawn Horcoff
I still am not at liberty to explain the entire Horcoff situation, but I'm losing my patience and sooner or later I'm going to blurt. I'll give you folks more to consider today: Horcoff wants to be bought out.
- Maxbone

Are you suggesting that you have Oiler inside information???

Even if we accept that, you say you are not at liberty to reveal information, then follow that up with the fact that Horcoff wants to be bought out. Which kind of sounds like you're giving up your "secret".

I think we could get Peverley for a decent price, maybe a third next year and a player li,e Hamilton. I dunno he's available and Boston needs next to no cap coming back. The bad news is that it makes Horton resign in BOS but he is a solid 3C and I think he'd help the team in PK and depth

RC supplies twinkies to Daryl Katz's son....

i have no idea why they signed hemsky to the deal they did. It made no sense and i knew it would end badly. Was i missing something oil fans or did most of you also feel the same way?

That must be why they went out of business. He ate them all

RC couldn't be trusted with a box truck full of twinkies

Twinkies are back, baby!

Counter with Luongo for Potter, Belanger, and 7th in 2035 (I heard it's a deep draft)

If I was managing the Oilers I would counter with laughter as soon as my call display said Mike Gillis.

It was a fair deal imo. It not like its long term. Theres 1 year left on it. It didnt cripple us cap wise.

It would be like those low level drug dealer who sample some of the merchandise...Cloots is a few boxes of twinkies short on his weekly delivery, then blames it on the Twinkies people.

I don't think any of us have won a Cup...
And been 23yrs since Oilers won the Cup...what's your point?
No matter how you look at it 13>5

Good for Gagner for wanting a NTC...
And as Clouts said, as much as Oil fans hate Phaneuf, he would the top pairing d-man the Oilers need.
However, Klefbom, the 7th, or one one of the untouchables would have to be coming to Toronto...he isn't going to be had for spare parts like most offers would suggest.

Except all 13 of the leafs cups were won in a 6 team league. The world is so proud of you.

Kind of like how Chiarelli feels when the Leafs call...except Chiarelli drops everything to take the call.

Dont forget YAK CITY
- FiretheGM

Don't forget Ebs either!

And why not Klefbom!

Dude, you might as well be asking me to come up with a grand unified field theory.

reached too far
fell over

- Oilfan19

The only fair comparison is start counting when the oilers came in the league. 5-0 oilers.

Only GM in the league thats worse then Tambi..

either way it's very sad neither team has won since 1990. Saying 'we won only 23 years ago' isn't that great a chirp. Better than we have been, but not very good at all.

So the past is forgotten just because its not fair?
Does that mean the Civil war in the US doesn't count because not all 50 states were involved?

- Snagglepuss

Why is that the only fair comparison?
At the end of the day, what's you point? Losers like yourself continually bring up the Leafs last Cup...why? Cause you can't run your mouth about them not making the playoffs anymore, so might as well go back the oldie but goodie...
