If by "discuss coaching techniques with" you mean "break the kneecaps of" then yes.

I was gonna focus the “discussion” a little higher up, but yes, you inferred my meaning correctly.

So it would (frank)ing seem.
- Wildschwein

Seriously these (frank)ing refs are a joke. How many calls are missed or ignored every (frank)ing game.

I was thinking the exact same

6 forwards back next year-
Connor, leon, looch (cause he’s untradeable) , khaira, slep, kass


Nurse, larsson, russel (cause he’s untradeable) , Davidson

->Try and deal Klefbom for an upgrade . Nothing less

Hopefully Lucic goes on a hunting trip with Gryba.

Trading Puljujarvi so quickly?

I'd keep Strome over Slepy unless he goes on a tear down the stretch- hopefully with a new coach.
- MaximumBone

I mean I suppose I can handle strome if he’s super cheap. But not over Slep. FAR more interested in his ceiling even it’s been super short lived. And he’ll be cheap.
I’ve seen stromes game. There won’t be any change. Useful, but meh, I could take it or leave it without much hesitation.
2 games of slep going has shown me he’s a superior talent to strome

Then we can grab a beer and discuss our new standing as God Emperors of the Oilers organization

It’s almost like they feel playing against McDavid is unfair to other players, so they have to limit calls against.

I'm just sick of jettisoning legitimate NHLers (even if they're meh) in favour of the potentially better player. Especially when one plays C and the other plays W.

I can get behind it. I doubt it makes the team better, but what the hell. Better than what we've got going now.

I've been saying this for a long while... I can put together a team of Oiler fans from this site who would do a much better job than Oil management have done... There's zero doubt in my mind.

I mean I bet Klefbom and our first gets oel.
We could probably even throw in a salary dump

Same. Helps that the bar has been set so very (frank)ing low.

RNH+ for Skinner and Foegele (6mil out, 6.5ish in) -0.5

Caggiula+ for Pageau (1mil out, 3.1mil in) -2.1

Sekera for Girgensons+ (5.5mil out, 1.6mil in) +3.9

Maroon for Joseph+ (1.5mil out, 800k in) +0.7

Net cap gain: 2mil

Pray for lottery luck

Draft Dobson ~7 and Hillis or Fonstad ~38

Resign Strome at 2.5mil for 1 year or 2mil for 3 years

Sign Nurse at 4.6 for 6 years

Try to sign Puljujarvi long term THIS summer

? Connor ?
? Leon puju
Looch khaira slep
Kass

I love sleps skating and I think there’s something to be said about him with Connor (assuming he’s going like he has been recently more often than not next year )
But I also think he likes the puck on his stick. I don’t think he’s as effective if his job is to defer to Connor . I like the idea of him on the 3rd as I’ve stated. Obv moving up and down.

But a bonafide scorer needs to be on one of those empty top 6 wing spots

I’m just not convinced Sekera would got Buffalo, past ties or not.

How bad would the buyout be, or is he ineligible due to age?

This is exactly it.
We couldn’t do worse.
We’re not morons. (Well most of the time anyway..)
We’re not cavalier with asset value.
We’re students of the game and follow the league closely. And We have every bit as good of an idea of where this teams weaknesses are as some guy that’s paid.

I love what Khaira brings but I'm not making the mistake of trusting unproven assets in such a key position as 3C. He may take the job, but I'm bringing in a guy like Pageau to act as a safety net.

If buyout is the only option, then Russell is taking that one. If not Buffalo, then Toronto. Withhold some cap and try to get Brown. Perfect complimentary guy to play up and down the line-up.

This is totally reasonable. I’m not totally sold on anything per se. but those are my horses that I’m keeping. How we mix and match is up for debate. Khaira maybe even on the top line in maroons spot
