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.

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.
