I’ve been led to believe the Oilers are a 3C away from being a legit threat.
|
2 top 6 wingers. A 3C, a solid 3rd line winger. 1 2nd pair and 1 3rd pair puck moving D and a goalie.

Pageau is that versatile? I’m sold. Let’s give a 1st to get him, Kenny!
|
I think this team may save us from a deadline overpay this year :) Just by being itself.
|
I think we agree there Adam. This team is not a playoff team.
Poor Connor. Wonder how much more of this he’ll actually put up with.

He's not Adam!
I have my concerns about the season too. It still looks like Holland is content to sit on his hands and blame this one on Chiarelli. Hard to believe we haven't even seen any young blood called up except when there's been injuries. At this point, you almost expect that if there was anyone hurt at forward, we'd just get Brad Malone.
Given the bonus situation, I would be scouring for a cheap goalie right now and burying Smith in the minors. Save some cap space by not paying bonus to a guy who's likely just to lose you most of those starts anyhow. I'd also send down Manning for someone cheap. Save every cent you can so that we can afford a better rental if we're still in the race in a month's time.
I think management needs to somehow signal that they think this team has a chance, because right now it sure doesn't look like it. When Elliotte Friedman is being told that they wouldn't part with Samorukov for Hall, that says this team is not thinking about this year. They should be - it's not fair to McDavid, Draisaitl, Klefbom & company to play them THIS much in a season that the management wrote off.
|
I think it's fair to McDrai to try to build up something that will be very good for the back half of their contracts. That's the only way you keep them. Selling out every year to try to be playoff fodder with a 50% garbage lineup gives you as much a shot to keep them with the org beyond their current deals as missing the playoffs does.
