Henrique is far from a plug. 42 points (18 goals) and +3 on a terrible Ducks team. There are only 5 Oilers who have more points than him this year (only 4 forwards) and only 4 players that have more goals than he does.
I am pretty happy with this pickup and think he will slot in well on one of our top 2 lines.
Carrick, I am pretty impartial to. I definitely don't know much about him or his game to comment one way or the other but as he is not the main piece of the deal I am not going to lose sleep over bringing him in.
I still think an upgrade at RD is more important than at forward and I really hope that this doesn't stop them from doing something on the backend also. Personally I think bringing in a 1b (or even a well established backup) goalie should have been the #1 priority but that ship seemed to sail last week so I will hold out hope for a RD upgrade.

I think you have to expect a drop in production for Henrique when he gets here. His usage is going to change significantly. He's got 10 PP points so far this year, and he was playing 18 minutes a night on the first or second line. He's going to bump down the lineup here.
A little center depth is good, and he's a decent player, but it's underwhelming for a 1st round pick.
And Gagner cleared waivers, so that's a positive!

Definitely expect his production to drop a bit with the Oilers as he will clearly not be given the minutes or matchups here in Edmonton that he got in Anaheim. That said, I still hope that he will be put on the second line wing and move Kane down to the 3rd line (or ideally out the door before the deadline). As I said, a first was an overpay but I am still excited for the player
|
Not sure why we got Carrick. We already have Connor Brown to suck hard as a fourth liner!
