Did Nuge play? Time to put him with Leon so Leon can get him to score again. Just not happening for him. I guess the nice thing is his price point should be dropping like a rock.
|
His price point dropping could mean we get substantially less in a trade than we would have if he was having a decent stretch right now. Pragmatically, he's a UFA and we need to get something for him: either a contract renewal in the next 10 days or players who can fill in holes towards contention. He's been soft and floaty for about 6 weeks now after a great start.
We'll see the asset management side of things quickly. If he stays here without a renewal what are the chances he bails for money elsewhere?
|
Even if they can't get a deal done before the deadline, I don't think trading Nuge is the right thing to do right now. In all likelihood, you are not getting a player who's better than him right now so why trade him. Your team is good. I haven't seen the percentages but I have to think they are almost a guarantee to be in the playoffs, maybe not 100% but they have to be high 90's. You have a chance at maybe being #1 in your division. They should be looking to add if anything, not subtracting.
|
Nuge is an elite top 6 winger with the right C that can slow the game down for Nuge to be a sneaky bugger, but we just refuse to play him that way :)
It's just comical at this point the lengths Tippett goes to to play Nuge with everyone except Drai. He even made McDavid play with plugs last night when McDrai was playing terrible. But made sure to work the other lines so Nuge and Drai didn't see 1 second of eachother.
|
I think the Nuge-Turiss-Yamo was possibly the lowest combined weight line I've ever seen play for the Oilers. Definitely not a punishing line in any sense, just pokey forecheckers. When they scored I was laughing so hard at the irony because I felt they were not playing well at all together, especially in clearing their own zone.
|
That was a confirmed genius goal for Tippett if I ever saw one :)
Nuge doing the classic toss down the boards to the D. Larsson with the sweet shot going wide. And then our Tourist takes it off the butt and it goes in.
Definitely calls for that line to be used again tonight :)
