Chiarelli for Francis... E5
- laughs2907

Get ready for another 4 years of slow, steady growth.

no roller coasters at all. It's boring.

You let Russell walk and get someone better. You don’t buyout Pouliot based on a bad year. You don’t trade Eberle for sweet (frank) all.

There is plenty he coulda, woulda, shoulda done but didn’t.

He’s a fukin moron. Not sure why the whole world sees this except half of the oilers fan base.

Also, Jagr.

I see the RNH for Ryan Murray rumours have started to make the rounds.
- LittleRicky

I'd like to make a three way deal with CBJ and MTL.

We get Murray and Galchenyuk.

Russian players seem to be more trouble than they're worth. The Oilers went on a kick drafting Russians and Band Aids.

I don't mind taking flyers on them. A guy like Slepy has sure been a decent pick

Also, Jagr.
- Beergu

Not sure we really lost anything with Jagr.

Slepy slipped a lot based on the Russian factor. We took a risk picking him after there was word he would not come over. Has worked out ok. But it’s a big risk sometimes.

- Lahey

I don’t want either of them

They guy was also Yamamoto size I believe when drafted.

for RNH ?

I really don't care. I just want everyone from the 2012 draft

Not sure how anyone can watch that video and NOT come away thinking Chia is a complete bumbling fool.
- Iggysbff

The biggest thing I got from that video is an indication of Chia's negotiation abilities.

4:00- the end........... damn......

- BINGO!

Steady growth? Sign me up!

I'd take both. I just don't know that I'd want to pay what the teams expect for them.

I really think Galchenyuk has been used incorrectly. Murray I don't really know, but for cheap I'd take a chance on him.

He did fine up until last summer... I 100% on Russell, Eberle and to a point Pouliot.

I think now is the time to take the reigns away from him.
- LittleRicky

100% agree on that.

It would have to be another player too, like say a first round draft pick... Oh, you don't want to do a first? Well maybe a second rounder if you could... No? Well I mean we could do like a few fifth rounders, but there would have to be a few... No? OK... That's fair, but it's going to take at minimum two 6th rounders, and I'm firm on that!!!

They guy was also Yamamoto size I believe when drafted.
- Lahey

Dont think it was size. He was selected 1st overall in the KHL draft and was expected to stay there for quite some time. He slipped right through his first draft eligible year in the NHL then all the way to the third round in his second year of eligibility.

I'm sure Todd would use him correctly.
