Not that I disagree but why are you so certain? Fact it we got 2 guys that were ranked as top 10 prospects in a very talented draft.

Nurse should be a shutdown defenseman. Zadorov is a but raw but has more potential then nurse. Nurse>Zadorov Ristolainen>Kelfbom

Umm, vanek is better then ryan...vanek has never played with getzlaf and perry. Ryan got a top 6 young prospect, good prospect AND a first rounder... Vanek will get as much or more.
- Djtyczy

two years of contract, three years younger, two million less expensive. Those are all factors.

And Yakupov, an oilers 1st and a 2nd is worth a whole heck of a lot more than noesen, puempel and a sens 1st

why would any team give up a low 20s YO franchise cornerstone forward for a 29YO with a year left on his contract?

ask yourselves that, seriously
- TheNugeIsHuge

No one.

Lol, you think hemsky is better then vanek right? And oilers will never win a playoff round with the goaltending situation in edmonton.
- Djtyczy

Nope I think Hemsky is poop and I have been yelling to trade him for anything for 5 years. And our goaltender is better than Miller. So once again. If you think Vanek/Miller are so awesome? Keep them. I don't want either of them on the Oil.

Nurse should be a shutdown defenseman. Zadorov is a but raw but has more potential then nurse. Nurse>Zadorov Ristolainen>Kelfbom

Ristolainen ain't better than Klef. Nurse and Risto are basically equals, but Klef is better. Trust me. I was just at oilers development camp

I guess only time will tell

wow.... Are you serious... Miller is in a different league then duby. Duby would be a backup anywhere else in the NHL. Miller is an olympian who won sliver for the US. Before you say duby had better stats 1 shortened year, i remind you buffalo was statistically a bottom 3 team in the NHL and miller faced the most shots in the league.

I guess only time will tell
- sbroads24

true. Zadorov's got huge potential, but also a huge amount of risk with him.

I think risto's a safer pick than nurse, but nurse has a higher ceiling

I like klef, but we will see...risto has been dominating vs men for 2 years and hes NHL ready as an 18 year old, although darcy may put him in rochester to learn the North American style first.

Dubey just had a .921. Miller just had a .915.
BUF SA/G 33.3
EDM SA/G 32.8

Sorry that argument doesn't work here

also EDM was a statistically bottom 5 team too

don't know if he's NHL ready yet. Maybe in BUF, but I'd give him a year.

Klef looks solid as ever, but I think he needs half a season in OKC

- Djtyczy

And Duby faced the second most shots. And still saved more. Miller in on the decline. Has a crappy attitude and a worse contract. So Lou won the gold. I guess Lou is far better than Miller?
As I said. Keep the piece of poop.

Edmonton was bottom 7 and Dubnyk was 6th in shots faced. Not like he was on easy street.

Its a poopty option but is Penner still available?

Miller faced the most shots in the league... If you watch the sabres, you would think their d have downsyndrome... Pinching every time and turnover specialists. He faced AT LEAST 7 odd man rushes per game.

You're brutal? did you really just claim that the oilers will NEVER win a playoff round with Dubnyk as a goaltender? get your head out of your ass...

Miller faced the most shots in the league... If you watch the sabres, you would think their d have downsyndrome... Pinching every time and turnover specialists. He faced AT LEAST 7 odd man rushes per game.
- Djtyczy

So did Duby. Still put up better numbers.

In the past 3 years for Dubey and Miller, they've tied in SV% once, Miller beat Dubey by 0.002 once, and Dubey beat miller by 0.006 once.

Saying Miller's in a different league than dubey is ridiculous.

Plus Dubey's younger, cheaper, and doesn't have attitude issues. He's a better fit for EDM

That's great for him. Dubnyk is good enough, and if you watched the Oilers, you'd realize upgrading goaltending is about 8th priority. Do you?

No lol, lou played for FU*CKING CANADA, they were MUCH BETTER. The #1 center for the US was stasney, and TIME GLEASON WAS ON THE TEAM. Crappy attitude? Id be pissed also with 7 2on1s per game.

EDM's D was rock solid though

best in the league I think

Time will tell... Minesota went far without a goalie too...

Never said they were, when buffalos new coach came in tho, half our roster was from his AHL team.

I saw him mocked to Carolina less than a month ago.

that's not really a ranking.

K dude. You should have realized by now that none of us want Duby gone and want Miller for anything Hell I wouldn't even pick him up on waivers.

So lets just stop. You're not going to sell us on him.
