Rather get him before you guys give away another d-man to TB.

well, we gave away Scott Gomez to Montreal 9 years ago for a prospect and things worked out well

As of late you just built a contenders defense though.

Barrie for Puljujärvi

Do it you dorks

You can send us Yamamoto or Jesse and a high pick anytime you want for Faulk....maybe Jesse P just needs to ride Aho's finn doodle again to be an
effective NHLer.
- FinnGod

You're terrible GM gave away Skinner for less than we got for Eberle... let that sink in good.

Gudas for JUJHAR KHAIRA?

Barrie is the new Faulk in the trade market

Gudas for JUJHAR KHAIRA?
- J35Bacher

Why do you guys want to get rid of Gudas ?

Barrie is actually good though

If he wasn't UFA in two years I would consider Barrie for Pulju to be a good move.

- Reveen.

Flyers already have :
Provorov
Gostisbehere
Hagg
MacDonald
Sanheim
Gudas
Folin

Close:
Meyers

Gudas can be a solid defender but I think Hagg can play with the same physicality and not take as many penalties. I think they could move him but also wouldn't be shocked to see him kept around too since he is a RH shot.

If he wasn't UFA in two years I would consider Barrie for Pulju to be a good move.

Barrie for Nuge could be a plan B, have your people call my people, but have you people call Iggy to tell him to suck it before calling me

My people make that call promptly at the start of each business day.

The Jets have a few d-men that can fill in at a reasonable cost to the Oilers. One of Morrow, Chariot, or Kulikov could be had for futures as the Jets have Poolman and Niku ready for full time duty. They would be a cheap and decent addition until Sekera is healthy or the Oilers make a bigger, but costlier move to get a top 4 d-man.

Well caffeinated?

This is how we roll

Leafs are where the Oilers were 1 year ago.

If the leafs miss by 15 points next year while suffering multiple key injuries and a seriously down year by their 1G are they a mess?

Not saying the Oilers are a lock to get in, but you just have to get to the 2nd season, then things can get crazy. Oilers at least showed up their 1 time there. Leafs did what?

Oilers could ride a goalie on his contract year and a few guys entering their new contracts who wanna show this isnt their peak...

Maple land may see a team decide its thiers. And coast. Results arent made on paper. For all we know the Knights arent just a 1 year wonder.
- wreckage

They are two opposite franchises. Even if the Leafs have a poor year, they are deep in the prospect pool and are better team in terms of player development.

Also, the Leafs have not made any panic moves while the Oilers have traded quality players and prospects for 'not so good' returns

If he wasn't UFA in two years I would consider Barrie for Pulju to be a good move.
- Reveen.

If the Oilers struggle this year Chiarelli gets fired. So I think we should expect a major deal to take place. Can’t blame the guy, he has to get into the playoffs this year.

Once the season starts, Sekera gets put on LTIR and they sign Enstrom to a 1 year deal worth ~2.5 to 3mil.

That's ugly. Enstrom is a #6 at best now

Yup, this sounds about right.

I'm no Leaf fan but they did make the playoffs the past 2 season so you're not really helping your case.

- Lahey

Not sure I agree, but even so that's precisely what we need right now. Any reasonable view of the coming year didn't have Sekera higher than the bottom pairing. Might as well find his closest analog that's available for free rather than giving up any serious assets.

Nurse- Larsson
Klefbom- Benning
Enstrom- Russell
Gravel

Definitely not ideal, but teams have made it with worse and without McDavid. What we need is a healthy year from Klefbom and for our new D coach to be all he's cracked up to be. Midseason acquisitions aren't out of the question, either.

- MaximumBone

We need someone that can step in and play top 4. I'm fine grabbing Enstrom, but he's a #6 at this point in his career. There needs to be another move.

We damn near already needed a guy that could play top 4 before Sekera went down. That has now hurt even more.

Wow...
McDavid (unless he's play D now) can't make up for that what that back end looks like. Talbot NEEDS to play better than he did 2 years ago or it could be a long season.
Sorry MB...
