@Browndalorian Basically, I’ll play but I’m going to unrestricted free agency. U couldn’t get me to my destination. I’ll play well for a year and I’m out of here.
@oilers_hub Jack Roslovic is a nice piece but doesn’t do Jack in the playoffs. Reason why he’s fizzled out. Reg season sure 20 goals but that’s gonna get made but easily. Problem in his game has always been his motor. If Rod the bod scratches him… he shouldn’t be on our team either
@DesirayPure It’s not too bad now but definitely enjoy the cooler weather. Red Bull Porsche party still packed and off the hook.
Got home opened all windows and maybe get a nice sleep in finally
@JasonGregor@Sports1440 Leo did what was best. He saw how Verbeek was playing hardball with Zegras and MacTavish.. now would it be different if he wasn’t so difficult with those two players.
@JenMN72@NewWorldOilers To be fair. Trading nurse for the sake of it and not getting more teams involved or a better deal made would be detrimental. One more season and then he can be moved to any 21 teams. That’s a Darnell problem. So, if the GM were smart he would use that leverage.
@klimaslid I wonder if Pat Kane would be interested in a one year deal here. Play with Drai or McDavid. Has a relationship with the GM. Maybe sign a cheaper deal that has some bonuses attached.
@Kgill39 If Mats Zuccarello is the deal breaker from us not getting a cup. We have bigger issues. Connor said team was average. But let’s be honest when you have McDavid, Drai and Bouchard you aren’t average. lol
@oilers49er@KevinMcCurdy More like Trent Frederic if he doesn’t work hard or give effort. Zach Hyman loves the guy. Kapanen had his best season under him. I trust Zach is a good judge of character and if he isn’t then the leadership group made the wrong call.
@DJ_Bean Better question. Do you think Zach Hyman is a good person? Would he be a good judge of character. He likes him a lot. Let’s hope Hyman and the leadership group knows best.
@Kgill39 It’s high risk but you are banking on your top guys making an informed decision. Hyman had a front row seat. He knows expectations and hopefully a good judge of character.
@JackieBee_16 Babs rarely had issues with his elite players. Is he a prick 100% but his top guys of Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Lidstrom respected him. It’s the bottom 6 that gets the gears. Hyman would have had a front row seat in TO. He also likes him a lot. I trust Hyman.
@klimaslid Curious do you think the Oilers will big game hunt for a top 6 forward or could that be addressed through a nurse trade whereby a forward and D come back? Any update on Cossa? Or could they be looking at Levi?
