I expect one trade and it will be minor. Teams can smell the desperation to make a move and will want to choke out the best deal they can from Edmonton with lowball offers

Vantel has been betting on Edmonton for the past two years with little success I do think Chiarelli will be the difference-maker for them this summer.

I expect that Eberle will be gone. Yak goes if there is a return for him. The emergence of P. Maroon give the oil more flexibility to use wingers for trades.

I expect the Oil to go after D-men like: Hamonic, K. Alzner, Tyson Barrie etc.

the Oil will eventually get there but it's likely that next year they will once again be absolutely terrible and looking at another lottery pick. i don't expect them to make their move till 17-18.

I won....he was betting me the past two years they'd make the playoffs, I said no way....they're just too one dimensional.

Also...I'm not from Vancouver

Oilers need to dump their 1st rounder for Hamonic. I don't care if it's the #1

What? It doesn't need to be straight up. Hamonic would be the prize though. It shouldn't even be debatable.

The island is probably the most beautiful spot in Canada. The whole Sunshine Coast and the island are gorgeous.

I have to agree with you! I work in the travel business and I have had many people from all over the world tell me that Victoria and Vancouver Island is probably the best place in the world to live. Extremely low crime rate, moderate climate , excellent health care , beautiful scenery, the list goes on and on

I escorted Prince and his body guard through US customs once at Vancouver Airport a few years ago, he was very shy but very respectful.

To Mtl: Hall
To Edm: Subban

To NY: Eberle + Nurse
To Edm: Hamonic

To Ari: 2016 1st, 2017 1st, 2018 1st
To Edm: OEL

To Ott: RNH
To Edm: Hoffman

Hoffman - McDavid - Yakupov
Maroon - Draisaitl - Kassian
Hendricks - Letestu - Pakarinen
Then whatever you can get for the 4th line....

Hamonic - OEL
Klefbom - Subban
Sekera - Davidson

Talbot
Ward - Id sign him.

I know, most of these are , but imagine that lineup afterwards. It would be at least the strongest blue line in the league.

One would have to think that years of losing on a garbage team would have decreased the value of said "thoroughbreds" by a significant margin.

Add that to the fact that PC is seen as desperate to improve the team now, I think other gms are going to be reluctant to move anything of significant value for Oiler players

Going to be a pretty dissapointing off season for Oil fans.

I don't know about that but I do know that all teams would be lining up if Hall becomes available, and the return would be very good.
