RNH is awesome, and you would be incredibly fortunate to have him on your team... But as Iggy mentioned, I'm happy to see that Ek mentioned him in this blog. That means he won't be traded.
- laughs2907

I know he is and I would love seeing him with us but you can't really have your top 6 with Drouin, Gallagher, RNH and Byron. It's just too small. Our small forwards are the one who plays the most with heart but we need more grit from bigger forwards.

Ek takes..

1.Teams always want to see where they are at by Canadian Thanksgiving. There's always alot of trade talk right before.

2.Teams always want to see where they are at by American Thanksgiving. There's always alot of trade talk right before.

You forgot about the all star game break. Lots of talk

Evander Kane is available.

Ah yes. How could I miss that? 😂

RNH is incredibly underrated if you ask me, I think the Oilers are going to do everything possible to keep him.
- DinoRondelly

His underrated is more than offset by Chia's overrated. Huge risk that Nuge gets moved to offset Chia's overspending.

Ehhhhhh, not sure about that one. Good player but I don't see E.Kane in Mtl doing nothing more than party

Holland should offer Tatar or Nyquist for Nuge. He might bite. 😉

I just want to see Evander Kane and the Habs fans and media. Now that's entertainment. 😂

He's 6' and they were saying on the radio during the game the other day that his playing weight is up to around 210 lb this season. Hard on the forecheck, and tough to move off the puck. Not the same RNH from a couple tears ago.

So Paul Byron + a pick for Nuge?

Jesus ek, the oilers aren’t trading nuge. They’d be even more fuked.

It’s actually kinda crazy how little U know about a league you pretend to have inside information about

No. Byron is being traded to Nashville for 2 high end defense prospects.

It’s not Nuge’s fault he’s 5’10”, he can’t change that. He uses what he has, night-in and night-out.

In the off-season depending on a few things.
Maaayybbe at the deadline if the oilers are totally out of it. But Even then I doubt it

Chiarelli has got to know he’s made some mistakes and cannot sacrifice anymore talent. Nuge is going nowhere anytime soon. And They’ll do everything they can to keep him long term

Are you worried Chia will trade McDavid to the Preds for Turris?

RIP HB77
- RonPielep

Meh.

Ek is a joke

Just leave this site as a discussion point for home team fans. It’s a quality site in that regard. Forget the headliner links where he makes up rumours and pretends to have the first clue about inside info on organizations

U can almost see the logic.
> choose a team that’s struggling
>identify a potential issue
>throw sh1t against the wall and hope it sticks

The disingenuousness of it all is super annoying

Hope so... Incredibly hard worker, really good two-way game, great attitude. I think any team would want him.

Heard McDavid stayed out past 9 and mouthed off to some old ladies. Pretty sure he's headed out of town.

You mean that you don't believe GM's call him regularly to find out if he's heard anything?

Yep. 20 year olds aren't allowed to bang hot chick's or go to bars. It's just not what Chia Costanza will stand for! Instead, McDavid should just do nothing but eat, sleep, train and play Xbox in between Oilers games.

He's 210lb now?
