Richard Cloutier: Oilers to Make Deal on Sunday?

Don't see Buffalo trading Foligno. Especially for Hemsky. A young player for an older player who will be an UFA. Foligno was the reason why Buffalo traded Kassian.

Would be interested to see what Vanek could do with Edmonton. He would definitely fit in the top 6. I think that he would help the younger players succeed.

A trade for Vanek probably would not cost a lot. Buffalo's hands are handcuffed in regards to Vanek and Miller. With Vanek's age and also upcoming UFA, Eberle and Hall would probably be off the table.

Nope to all of it.

You really overvalue Smid

You could have at least said Gagner for Kadri as an option...you wont generate a hit parade to this blog with the 14 avalanche fans on this site.

bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad

and stop trying to deal Smid you (frank)

Foligno's a stud. I wouldn't deal him unless it was a huge overpay. Next Simmonds or wait for it..nick foligno

wow again.. we dont need or want gagner... regardless of what each fanbase thinks of his skill level/size etc. it literally makes no sense for the leafs... end of non existent story

I wouldn't go that far just yet.

Unless you were being sarcastic. Three hours ahead here, so hard to tell.

Why would we want Gagner? 5th line center?

Yea i like him a lot... Id love to see him on LW with Grigorenko and Armia...could be a killer line.

And seriously...this guy probably thinks hemsky is better then vanek.

Your blogger brought it up. Not the poor misguided soul that worships Darcy Tucker.

- Marshalle

outscored all PHI centres did he not?

Honestly, what would Edmonton think of a Stafford for Hemsky deal straight up?

I think that Stafford could score some goals with that team.

Cause Hemsky, Ganger, Smid are all going to the Hall of Fame duuhhhh lol. Some guys here think they will get a kings ransom rather then the second rounder they are worth.

Edit: I do like ganger tho.

No thanks...id throw stafford in a vanek or miller deal and get a little more.

he only had 1 less point than Nick Foligno. Simmonds is a stretch but he has potential

As i have said before, hockey is more than stats son. 5th line center.

The thing with marcus foligno is...sometimes he thinks he is a player like datsyuk and trys to stick handle...when he plays to his power forward skills he is a force

We don't want miller, vanek, stafford from buffalo but we will take ott

OK. That is exactly what I thought you meant.

well it's like this, couturier is a defensive force at 19/20 so >Gagner. B Schenn's only value is on offence and he's yet to outscore gags so, no he'd be on PHI's first line lol
