That's potentially three 4th round picks gone in 2 days for absolutely nobody that moves the needle.
|
What’s the draft success rate on our 4th round picks?
|
It's not that we're missing out on a player that is unlikely to play for us. Rather I think the criticism is that we could be getting more trade value with these picks.
|
No no - NetBOG hates the idea of trading draft picks for rentals. He is firmly of the belief that a guy who potentially plays some unknown number of games for the team in the likely distant future is of more value than a guy who’s definitely an NHLer playing some important games for the team now.
My personal belief is that he WILDLY overvalues draft picks and that especially for the Oilers where this year and the next are all that determines whether we stay a contender or become a bottom feeder once more we need to find every angle in trying to win a Stanley Cup.
All that said, if this is all we do, it’s a little disappointing. I don’t think we’ve improved the roster enough, and we really haven’t come close to what the Avalanche and Golden Knights have been able to pull off. We most likely have to go through both those teams during the playoffs if we are to be successful, so it’s disappointing to see them win the arms race by SO FAR.
Also every quote from Holland is just depressing. That dirtbag just stole $25MM from the team over the past five years to mail it in, and there doesn’t seem to be a lot of effort to make sure he goes out on a high note. “You know, tomorrow I’ll wake up, and I’ll call a few people and see if maybe there are any trade s available.” If it was someone else you might think that’s playing his cards close to the vest but we’ve known him long enough to know that no, that is really the extent of his game plan. Here’s hoping he waits until after the actual deadline to schedule his presser tomorrow.
