I am not advocating the trade at all. I don't know a ton about Manning other than lots of people think he is terrible. I prefer to actually see a player play before I decided but when the trade came down, I didn't quite understand why it was made, especially when I heard Chia say he is ideally a 3rd pairing guy which they have lots of. What I was surprised about the trade though is the all of a sudden love on for Caggulia. When he was an Oiler, many fans hated him. Most people in here hated the contract, thought it was a gross overpay. Lots of people in here felt he was over used, many thought he shouldn't play at all. He gets traded and all of a sudden he's great. icon_lol

I don't like the trade but it's funny how Oilers fans are. Most players are a pile of garbage until they get moved then they are awesome.

I dont know if I have posted much about Cags here in the past but I am one who doesn't think he brings a whole lot to the table overall.

I am also one who thinks this trade was not a good idea.

It is a case of bringing in an asset in a place where things are set, bottom pairing players, and sending out one where our depth is the worst in the league, secondary scoring.

While Drake wasn't ideal he was likely our best secondary scoring winger outside of Chiasson. PC mentions over and over about how the team needs to allow less goals, and that is true, but in the next breath likes to remind everyone how hard it is to get top end D-men.
Sometimes you have to play the cards you have been dealt and in this case the Oilers lucked into some high end offensive talent. That shouldnt mean the solution is to ignore the rest of the forward lineup and keep re-arranging the blue line while downgrading assets repeatedly.

All that said, I did like what I saw from Manning in his first game.

Like I said, I am not justifying the trade. I don't really like it personally but I just found it funny the backlash with losing Caggulia. Based on some of the comments, you'd think Caggulia was a star player which he wasn't. I think he is a bottom 6, borderline tweener NHLer. Yet you had fans/bloggers losing it over Caggulia leaving when similar guys a week ago would be calling him a brutal player. I didn't think trading for Manning was necessary.
