I think Roby Jarventie is going to get a look too. I think the Oilers made the deal on Bourgault because they're getting a guy who's closer to the show.
Stecher suddenly looking like a more important re-signing too after this. Wasn't sure whether he's on the roster originally, but now he seems a shoo-in and probably a regular unless the Oilers really want to see a lot of Josh Brown.
|
This just got me thinking... what if some of the moves Jackson made in the early days were done in anticipation of losing one or both of these players. It probably wouldn't be a shock to Jackson if either Broberg or Holloway wanted a fresh start and the extra signings may have been insurance against this scenario happening. Stecher can take the 3rd pairing RHD position (Ekholm, Nurse, Kulak, Bouchard, Ceci, Stecher) to start the season. Meanwhile, up front, while Holloway's speed is a loss, the Oilers were actually under .500 with him in the lineup during the regular season last year. Both of these guys could turn out to be worthy of their draft position, but if they just help us re-stock the draft pick cupboard for a few months, it's probably not the end of the world.
|
If Jackson was thinking he might lose one or both of them, then I would have expected him to be more proactive on a trade to get better value for them.
|
If I was the agent for Broberg and Holloway, and had been working on offer sheets since July, I would just have been stringing Jackson along with excuses. Like wanting to wait for the new GM to be hired to negotiate. Maybe Jackson would have felt like something is up, but he has also been busy with the GM hire and figuring out McDrai. Broberg in general may have never had any intention to stay here for any contract that would have been reasonable, and the offersheet prospect is the only reason he didn't ask for a trade.
I imagine Jackson is also not that comfortable with most of the GM role. He happily signed UFA's and some guys that were really excited to stay. Made some prospect trades with extremely willing GM's. He didn't really have to deal with anything difficult as the interim GM.
