Understand Yamo going for nothing.. little value at 3.1M

But adding Kostin? .. for no return?

Kostin was the "cost" for taking Yamo and not having the $0.5M cap retention for one year after a buyout?


Only way this trade works fairly out for Oilers s if he goes to the KHL.

If he signs with Detroit, then a loss for Holland


If Kostin signs with the Wings for 1.75M? This could be a favour to the player, which I am okay with. If he signs for 1M, then I agree it is a Holland loss, but as it stands right now we were going to let him walk on Saturday anyways.

Good luck Klim. Hope you are not living in Siberia come the fall.


At whatever Kostin eventually makes, Detroit has the cap space to sign him, which equals an NHL roster player.. either 2nd, 3rd, 4th liner on Detroit, that's value.. and we give him to Detroit to take 500k in cap space.. ? .. seems pretty expensive.

BTW.. there was mention of "future considerations" to Oilers.. is that anything real?


It's worth watching Holland's little scrum at the draft. They ask him what futures is and he almost laughs, almost says it's nothing, then says, "well, it's futures."

It's nothing.

As I said earlier, no one is distraught over this, but it's hardly like the Oilers have done well with this. It could have been worse, so there's that.

But the true test is what you do with the cap space, and we still have the same guy who gave Yamamoto two years at $3.1MM as the guy spending that cap space, and he's already committing to future cap grief with his inability to do anything but bridge Bouchard, so I wouldn't say I'm super-optimistic.


It could have been astronomically worse and only marginally better. If we are going to weigh the deal, then weigh it appropriately.

3.1M was not a terrible bet on Yams, but it did not hit. Their are no long-term ramifications from this move, but like you said, the real story is in what we do with the acquired cap space.
