Surely if the Oilers need to move $6m in salary, they'd be wiser to move RNH or Eberle, no?



Or is that too much thought for one blog...?

This makes no sense, it HAS to be Hall going out. Period.

Yeah, geez, keep up. Oil need to salary dump a LW to Buf because Lucic ... and it's not like any other team would be willing to help the Oil out of this jam. It's a good thing Garth is here to talk sense to you all.

Hey Garth(ites)


Realistic trade proposal: TOR - HALL (Edm can throw in Ference if they want)

EDM - JVR + (Tor can throw in Bernier and/or Percy if they want)

HALL 6M & Ference 3.25M (1 yr)

JVR 4.25M & Bernier 4.15M (1 yr) & Percy serviceable young SAH Defenseman

Too bad you guys didn't qualify him, kills this completely realistic trade []

That's why I put in the old and/or you richard GO LEAFS GO

Least he acknowledged Bogo's NMC that voided in the trade to Buffalo and was inexplicably reinstated by Murray for absolutely no reason at all.

Ordinarily, I'd say yeah sure trade Bogo if it will net you Hall...but now that Pysyk is gone, that'd make Cody Franson a 2nd pair D and that'd be no good at all.

I think it'll still work, once you make the Hall-Bogo swap, you can sign Okposo, and then flip Hall for Myers to make room for Okposo and his 6M cap hit.

Iam with the trollers, never getting hall for Bogosian. Should have done before draft and packaged the 8th pick with other packages that was discussed on here for a month allready. If we want hall give them Nylander to start

How does this lead to the Sabres trading Kulikov for McDavid?

Yeah. I mean McDavid may be good, but Bogosian is BIG. And you just simply can't teach size

Or you can just let him snort the remains of whatever is left after Lucic has finished with them...

ite stunning that someone could be this clueless and still have a writing gig


The only logical explanation is he's sold himself as comedy relief to Ek


"Listen ek, I seriously have no idea about the game or really any player outside of buffalo, but if I play the total troll homer buffoon, I'm sure I can generate some hits "

Both are grossly overrated. Edmonton needs to move at least two of Hall, Eberle, RNH and Yukupov to help eliminate that culture of losing.

So, Edmonton needs D and has for years ... drafts another winger with the fourth overall pick and has a hard on to sign Lucic? Same MO as the old regime. Not helping the problem. Until edmonton trades two of their supposed core guys that are mentioned above, its all talk.

Move along, you know nothing . The season doesn't start on July 2nd, and our GM has stated multiple times in the last week his top priority is a D Man.

Drafting an 18 yr old D man doesn't help us for 3-4 yrs.

Who had the D man to truly help us made available for that 4th OA pick? You seem to think you know something, so let's hear it.
