God I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that.

I was just trying to wrap my head around the fact that there is a chance this team could not even get 20 wins.

Single digit wins in 2014. (frank) Yeah!

I thought it was a sex trafficking thing.
- Dangles13

All I thought was frank that sounds like some shady deal. Drugs sex trafficking hit man who frankin knows lol

- Dangles13

That was my second thought

Yup. If we don't win it all this year I'd have no problem trading Malkin for a good package


We're too top heavy (kinda like the Oilers) and I see the defense becoming our strong point in about two years if the kids keep improving (Letang, Maata, Despre, Pouliot, Harrington, Doumilin - all good puck movers).

Okay, so what is McDavid worth in respect to Malkin?if he's the next Crosby I would expect a (frank) of a return.
Arizona: OEL, Hanzal, Sameulson
Biston: Chara, Lucics, Bostons 1st
Rangers: McDonough, Brassard, Rangers 2015 2nd, 2016 1st and that D prospect.
Toronto: Kadri, Gardiner
Nashville: Weber and Rinne
SanJose: Couture, Vlasic, Hrtle,
Jets: scheifle, Buff, KANE, 2015 1st

....and if that isn't enough, all those (frank)s have to take Nikitin and (frank)face Ference

Worst team ever? At least we can make the record books!

Oh poop, a hit man, I think you nailed it.

That whole first paragraph sounded like a bunch of code for a drug deal.

Trust me it's about a half a percent as exciting as that.

Wanna read something depressing? The Oilers are on pace for 50 points while the Ducks already have 49.
- Dangles13

Ouch. 50 pts would that be a record for lowest pts in Oilers history. Saddest thing is look how even the Sabres turned it around. Another question. Anyone think Eakins will ever coach in the NHL again?

Really? All those awesome packages of players and then Kadri, Gardiner??? Wtf???

you beat me to it

Sometimes I like to slide in a little Easter Egg to see who's paying attention. Sadly, Leafs fans think that lines up reasonably.

Absolutely. I am sure Eakins will be on someones staff to start next season, as an assistant not as a head coach.

I'm surprised you think we can get Gardiner after we get Kadri.

LMFAO the Toronto deal is unfair. Oilers would have to throw in Perron

It's crazy how much respect he seems to have after he got fired. Truthfully, he was over his head, but I have a great appreciation for how he handled it with grace and dignity. The last year would have drove a lesser man to booze.

Big word is "if". And with Crosby it is about what he means to the team on and off the ice.




Replace McDonough with Girardi and lose the first and that could work

Jets would probably get you Buff, the first, and something else.

Arizona would be the best partner - Yandle, Vermette, a D-prospect.


The other factor is not knowing for sure if you even land the #1 overall if you trade in season (which is what I'd prefer to see). That lessens the return.

The players defended him constantly and there is no way anybody could get these poop-eaters to play hockey.

Well if it's the day after the lottery and we have the 1st pick and that's all that's on the table....FUUUUUUUCK THAT!!!!

The roster is clearly the issue.
So what do you Jabronis think?
A. Tank for McDavid
B.Try to get better ASAP
C. Burn it to the ground
