I'm fine with him on the 2nd pair. Problem is we now have about 4 2nd pairing caliber defensemen, and 1 potential 1st pairing guy.
I think to eventually win a cup, we are going to need a stud back there |

Talks btwn Oilers and Klefbom camp going well. Could see deal in the 6-7 year range soon. Best guess is just over 4m based on other deals
Probably sets the market for risto. If he has a breakout year this year i could see it going to around what Myers got. |

The development I was referring to - which might make your opinion a bold statement - happened even sooner than I expected. |

idk, schultzie...we'll get a better idea as to where he is this season...a sound environment can do wonders for a player with skills |

I am a little concerned that we dont have a great 1st pairing on defense but if I recall correctly a lot of pretty talented defensemen will be ufa's at the end of this year. Hope we are able to snag one. |

If I knew how to go back and look at last year's posts I bet I could find dozens that express the same idea: we have to throw away any conceptions formulated in the last two years. New and different team objectives; new and different team mates; new and different coach (who actually has a system!).
It's a brave new world. |

The UFA class always looks way better a year away. |

i'll be more concerned the following season as I think there will be playoff bubble expectations |

Bogosian is the x factor on defense. Key for him is staying healthy which has been a challenge for him. If bogo misses alot of time this year I think we are in trouble. Another reason why the Franson signing makes sense. Added insurance. |

Very true statement. The trade route is the best place IMO than overpaying a player to come here. |

find the team that fell way below expectations and see if you can buy low(ish).
Yandle could be an option though. |

"The pair played well together, and as a reward Anderson inexplicably broke up the pairing"
....any idea why coaches actually do this? I mean, I get the theory....2 guys playing well could help 2 struggling players. but its a pretty dumb theory. |
