no. EDM wants depth. I'll take Macarthur over 0 goal hartikainen
- TheNugeIsHuge

That's not the way to do it. And Hartikainen wasn't going to be on the team this year anyways. Thus why he was being offered a 2way contract and split town.

Do you understand now why some of us are so damn wienerly? Our blogger makes idiotic, blind and guessing statements all the time and states them as fact, and then everyone thinks we're all like that when in reality, due to such a long stretch of futility, we're probably the most realistic fan base on here. Its enraging.

So....clouts sure has a boner for Pouliot and Meuller eh? Brutal. Pouliot would be okay , I suppose as a spare part/ utility winger, but PM is an awful idea as a 3C. Why not get a guy who is hard to play against, wins face offs and kills penalties?

Can I interest you in Chris Kelly, although with Seguin and Peverley being shipped out to day I don't think he is moved now. He may struggle offensively, but he is a hell of a player defensively.

They don't need Schultz' salary. It'd be like Potter(low salary that's why)+marincin+2nd 2014+another mid pick
- TheNugeIsHuge

That's a horrible trade for us. No way I'd include Marincin. If they don't want Shultz then they can have Potter and a 2nd and a 4th. Why would we put that good of a package together to help them out of their financial woes? The team up against the cap is the one that gets the lesser in the trade. That's the way it works.

IMO Eric Nystrom has become the type of player Craig MacTavish has looked to add. Provides "meat". Can PK. Repped by Ritch Winter.

Cloutier get's a lot of flack, (justifiably for the most part) but I for one appreciate the fact he blogs regularly and provides the forum to talk. Now... That being said, your blogs would be much more palatable and\or tolerable if you choose a side of the fence.

Whoa...deja vu moment just now. Have we had this discussion before?

Freaky.

Sources confirming David Clarkson met with the Edmonton Oilers today in Edmonton. #TSN

I like what the Oilers did in trading down and getting more prospects. This is the same kinda move Detroit has made. I would rather have a team get more depth and put itself in position to be good for many years than just make a quick fix to try and make the playoffs now.
I think we are seeing some bold moves cutting lose those defence prospects. The culture is changing and the message is being sent to roster players and prospects alike. Still early!
This is not a great year for free agents and to overpay may not make sense for the talent available. I agree with having patience.
I am really looking forward to seeing how the AHL and Junior players develop this year.
Another year of experience and strength training should make a big difference for the untouchables as well.

If this happens, what do the Oilers do to adress their need for a 3rd line C?

We need to hear the terms first. The Oil might be eating part of his salary.
