He's a really good prospect again and I'm not just saying that to you in particular but people are already putting him on the top when he actually didn't prove anything yet. There's a sh*t load of players that we're in the same boat as him and never did something. Don't forget he's one lucky player to have finished his 3 years of playing in the university ranks. The player had the time to perfect his game to the university level. Which is not comparable to the NHL

how come 1st overall picks are such a high value then? They haven`t proven anything either

.....right I came here to talk BS yet some of your brethren agreed with me and didn't respond like an attack dog and had some banter with me where i practically congratulated you guys. Try the bottom of page 3 and search out the ones who were actually coming here to rain on your signing parade.

No one is agreeing with you.. But granted you are not the only crap talker here.. The thread is just getting too long too fast for me to react to every Edmonton Hating post. Forgive me.

The people thinking he's going to come in and pull a Karlsson will be quite disappointed. He may or may not turn out...my point was mainly that if you're a GM you have to try for him.

2 injury prone players for an olympic allstar.... keep off the bong

That's gross

I think Burke has a seat for you in his office, rightfully named "the land of pretending like you're happy with what you didn't get"
- Juice

Again nope.....never had any delusional hope for getting him. No whispers ever came out of buffalo that they were interested. And they were clearly not on the Schultz wish list that was highly published throughout the circus that was. He also wants ice time which he would not get immediately in buffalo as most prospects with the exception of Tyler Myers are expected to put in some AHL time.

Deal.

I'm happy if he comes in and scores 35 to 45 points and play responsible defense.

That's gross

What about our 1st rounder + Bulin for Bernier + Clifford

No

not trying to troll but last year the college free agent everyone wanted was da costa who was hyped by tsn(he sucked on Ottawa) the year before that bobby butler on Ottawa, the year before that Casey wellman on Minnesota, the year before that Matt gilroy on rangers, the year before that Fabian brunnstrom on Dallas

All busts so relax Edmonton don't hype him up to be a star like we did for dacosta and butler. Wait to see him play first
- Paul99

dont care he is a freebie with a glimmer of hope.....we dont have stocked allstar dmen like u do

To every Leafs fan saying Schultz is a bust already, their university coach said that Schultz is the same player as Gardiner but with better offense. How did Gardiner do?

Does Tambi have to give Lombardi a rimjob too?

No

i wasn`t asking you bud

what would you give up for bernier

Exactly, he cost us nothing, every hockey expert says he is an incredible D prospect, and if he flops guess how much that really hurts us?

- Killbot460

Preferably nothing, why would I want him?

A freebie with a large cap hit...

Just joking, good for the Oilers, they're really setting up for being a dominant team in the West.

Smart by Schultz, Ottawa-Toronto-Vancouver-rangers Fanbase are more critical for hyped up prospects to succeed and help the team win.

If he doesn't live up to expectations he can still be liked by Edmonton fans like paajarvi
- Paul99

Like eberle? Or hall? Or the nuge?

Yeah we should be more critical on these busts

Congrats Richard

And Oil fans I had some fun with over the last couple days.

I guess I was wrong about guaranteed playing time.

But ...while we know you are excited with the kids, lets lay off the talk of "missing piece" and "Cup in a couple years".

The Canucks always spend to the Cap, will do anything to win, and will continue to do so.

Thats not going to change because the Sedins get a little older.


But hey, maybe you get out of 29th this year! Moving on up!!!!

Its hard to judge what Bernier is worth rumor wants they want a 1st rounder

i wasn`t asking you bud

what would you give up for bernier
- Killbot460

We dont need bernier. Dubie gets his chance this year. People hate on Dubie so much but he was one of the best goalies in the league after Jan 1st

Preferably nothing, why would I want him?
- ALEDDO

have a solid young goalie tandem.

AV would not have been able to handle this guy in Vancouver. Demanding top 4 minutes before even playing a single game in the NHL? Forget it.
