Doesn't give the Oilers what they need. If they're going to be moving one of Yakupov or Eberle (it's a commonly held feeling among Oilers fans that they'd rather move Eberle), they need to be getting at least a top-4 defensive stalwart that is either young or on a solid contract in return. Sorry, but Toronto has none of those so I don't see him going there.

Flyers need D help in the worst of ways so why not get an obese winger listed as a defensemen in the player guide to come help out


Yandle is decent but God would I love to have Oliver Ekman-Larsson. Not happening............ever

ANOTHER Flyers and the fat man rumor, how original. Big Buffet doesn't solve ANY TEAMS defensive needs. He's a lazy player that sucks on the defensive end!!!!! minus 44 on his career, almost 30 y/o and gets 5.2 million. Are you on crack ! Unless Winipeg took Vinny back, these rumors are pure STUPIDITY!
- twpguy

The Flyers have spent the majority of their draft picks over the past two years on taking D men so they wouldn't have to make a trade like this. Ek just keeps digging himself deeper with it tho.

Tell me the Flyers are after a legit top 6 LW. If you tell me they're after another 3-4 D man I'm just going to laugh.

And we could have had Weber for what turned out to be the Schenn's, Morin and Laughton.

Trading yakupov when his value is so low is probably the dumbest thing the oilers can do right now.... which i guess would be a very oilersy thing to do

And that's what's missing from this team. Well, maybe not the ONLY thing, but that elite defenseman. I know Weber's and Doughty's don't grow on trees but I would probably give up more than a fair share for one of them

So 11 goal yakupov trade value = 30 goal yakupov trade value?

Enough with the Yak trade already. During these 4 games he has been a lot better than Eberle. Why trade the guy with the biggest potential.... unless it is OEL, then.... yes.

Eberle + Scrivens or Fasth + 1st draft pick this year + Lander = Price + Top 6 prospect
Draisaitl + 2016 2nd + Petry + Ference = Tyler Seguin + 2nd and 3rd Draft Pick 2016
1st Draft Pick 2016 + Miller (Prospect) + Musil = OEL

(We have room cap, and so does everyone else, and even after all of this, we would have 2-4 million left)

RNH and Seguin would be a lovely 2 line puncher.

Hall-RNH (Can Switch with Seguin)-Yakupov (He is starting to really show what he is)
Perron-Seguin-Purcell
Pouliot-Yakimov-Arco(Shift him as a Right Winger)
Joennsu-Gordon-Pitlick
Hendricks

OEL-Fayne
Schultz-Marincin
Nikitin-Nurse

Price
Fasth/Scrivens

Get Detriots drafting staff = Get steals in the late rounds

Call me crazy, call me stupid, dumb, an idiot, ANYTHING.
But if I were as a GM, I would make those trades in a heartbeat, and I know that most of you would too.
We are not rebuilding anymore, no need to stock up on 1st draft picks.
If we are waiting for any bold move, it shoudl be this.

Top Prospects:
Yakimov
Horak
Khjaira
Chase
Kessy
Moroz
Klefbom
Gernat
Simpson
Brossoit

In the LONG RUN, our only concern should be NHL capable defensive depth and a elite goaltending starter.

And that's probably a good reason you aren't a GM.
