Saw that.. Nurse gives list of 3 to 5 teams.. don't worry Bowman will screw that one up too.. . we won't be coming back with +9.25M .. Bowman will just give it away to Walman Part II .. Bowman's problem is he can't evaluate player talent.. his team's or others..

Wonder what those teams are. Hopefully SJ and Toronto on the list. Maybe LA too. Holland might want his Nurse/Ceci pair back!

Some Nurse updates. Comment on the 3 teams Nurse has on his list. ANA is not on it, he's only given Bowman 3 teams so far.
Oilers Access @oilersaccess
Elliotte Friedman on Darnell Nurse:
- PHI is interested but will need to move some pieces out first (Ristolainen), same for BOS
- PIT wants EDM to retain which they are not willing to do
- Nurse hasn’t agreed to open up his list for ANA yet
Odd Nurse isn't giving ANA as a destination he would accept. He didn't take putting in 2 GWG's for the Ducks in our series as a sign he should be playing for them?

I'm starting to think that the classic Oiler strategy of waiting until a players value is at absolute rock bottom, leaking to the media that you are desperate to get rid of the player and then begging one of the other teams to do you a favour and take them isn't really working out that well.
"Initiative comes to thems that wait"

The funniest thing I have read about this saga when it is being reported Darnell won't expand his 3 team trade list..
At the end of the day, you have a situation where you asked to trade the player and he said no, then he thinks, "Well if you don't want me then trade me but since I control the hammer, I only want to go to these 3 teams"
Blundering Bowman: "You, uhh, you, uhh, you need to expand your trade list"
Nurse: "No"
Local Sports Media: "You have to trade Nurse, you MUST trade Nurse, Nurse has to go"
Fans: "It's time but smh if he doesn't go o'ell"
What a farce.
The very definition of insanity is doing the exact same thing expecting different results.
Generally Disappointed.
