Is it true they are payng some/half of Dubnyks salary?
- ImThatGuy

Yes the oil retained 50% of dubys salary, however it isnt as big of a deal because he will be a UFA after this year.

Give us a Dman too. Meh we will take Piety off your hands
- Oilfan19

No. You can have Carlo Colaiacovo though.

What's the story on Matt Hendricks?
- Yeti1181

Generally a forgettable try hard who never really put his offensive game together at the pro level, but who happens to be amazing at the shootout.

Poor stats conventionally, and in terms of Corsi, but I'm half convinced that 4th lines are mostly kill or be killed in this league. He's not a poor skater by any means.

Bob Stauffer ‏@Bob_Stauffer 35m

Don't think the Oilers are done here...

Bob Stauffer ‏@Bob_Stauffer 16m

I don't see a big goaltending move right now...but not sure Oilers move forward with Bryzgalov and Bachman
- ystoil

I think Bachmann is better than people think. He is most certainly not a #1, but definitely a solid #2.

Objectively looking at this trade - it stinks for the Oilers

They received a 32 yrs old guy - with 3 more years left at 1.85 to be on the 4th line

The Oil should be promoting from within for the 4th line or a cheaper solution on the UFA market this year -

Oil are not going to make the playoffs this year - why saddle themselves by giving up a UFA to take on a bloated 4th liner contract for the next 3 years

If I were every GM in the league - I would be calling and offering up magic beans to MacT - might walk away with Hall or Eberle

Oil fans should be very worried

Wikipedia has him being a 211pound center shooting left, 32 years old and having about 260 games,in the NHL. Drafted out of highschool

We will settle for Shatty then

Reimer is heading your way

Should I leave the door unlocked?

4th liner? Big. Is he 'mean' at all? I know he is strong on the faceoff dot. Does this put Arcobello down to the AHL? So many questions!

Dammit Chet you answered me with more questions

I like Stewart, but it wouldn't kill me if he left in a trade.
- carcus

Whats the deal then ? Eberle as the key peace going back?

- Meeqsb

If they are retaining some of his salary - there was no need to trade him right now -

I honestly expect Dubnyk to bounce back in Nashville.

Good thing I didn't bring up any questions that relate to what could happen in Nashville then!

I'm tempted to pick him up in one of my fantasy leagues. I could see him doing well with a solid defensive-minded team in front of him.

hes a backup.
- Jurco_28

I don't expect him to set the world on fire, but I expect his save percentage to climb back up to around .910 from here on out.

I'll respond to you, instead of MTL11.

I think Hendricks will get time on the 3rd line. And he will replace Jones. I think the oil move Jones at the deadline.

Playing Hendricks on the 3rd line.... hoping he can add grit and toughness other than he 4th line. kind of like Moen lite, I guess

#1 goalie basically for a fourth liner. I know dubynk hasn't been great this year but he will still have a chance to be a number 1 in his career and will hopefully get there.who the (frank) is running this team

Miller for Yak+?

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
Sounds like Ben Scrivens has been traded from LA to EDM, 3rd round pick headed back to LA.
