Yeah a very surprising day already.. and Stepan/Hjalmarsnonsjajnnn to the coyotes too. Maybe they'll start making some actual progress.

Artemi Panarin to Blue Jackets for Brandon Saad
amato replied to Keep Your Stick On the Ice's topic in General
8 years. Awesome! -
I didn't say he should.. I said I think it would be cool. I just like the Oilers, that's all.

True. They'd have to clear some cap though.. They're rumored to be trading Kruger soon but that's only 3 mill. Maybe they have more moves up their sleeve. That and Oshie will likely have to take less.. but if he were doing that, why wouldn't he just do that in Washington? He seems to like it there and they say they want him back but might not be able to afford it. -

theres the Oshie rumor from a more notable source than my Chicago area friend -
Yup, Panera Bread is now a bluejacket.. it's still sinking in for me. I don't think so. They traded away Stepan so I'd expect them to draft a center.. especially with at least 2 of the 6 picks ahead of them likely being defense. Wouldn't be surprised if Tippett is gone before they even pick though.

What about Byfuglien?? Also, you missed the likely fourth step after those three... miss playoffs -

A Chicago area friend said that the rumors floating around there are that more moves are on the way to dump cap and try to sign Oshie.. I don't see how they could swing it but that'd be crazy. -
Bryz's deal was like humongous big!
-
Hahahaha Dougie Hamilton went for a first and a second a couple years back... no way Travis Hamonic goes for more.

we'll trade them Nelson for Chychrun

Crazy. Dreger did follow it up with something about that being the asking price from his agent and will likely come down a bit. Could see him getting a deal around where Kane/Towes is though.. 10-11mill range/8 years. It'd be cool if he started a trend of star players taking less to make the team around them better.. but that seems unlikely.

Alexander Radulov: Wings on short-list of desired teams
amato replied to TheDetroitRedWings's topic in General
Hahahahaha no team in the NHL will give him that contract.. if he doesn't budge, he'll be playing back home again next year. -

AA or Larkin maybe? Don't take that as fact though.. I don't know a ton about Strome other than he's a former 5th overall pick center who has seemingly under-performed. Maybe the change of scenery and getting to play with the oilers higher scoring offense will help. -

Hopefully because they're going to trade one to us -

Didn't know where to put this but figured since it kind of has to do with fallout from the expansion draft (NYI shedding salary) this was fine.. they're trying their best to give Tavares a reason to stay. -

amato replied to MabusIncarnate's topic in General
They're just trying to get as many draft picks as possible over the next three drafts.. they've already added what; 10 or 11? And I'm sure there are more to come in the next 24 hours. Combine that with likely a top three pick in at least the next two drafts and they could be contenders in 3-5 years if they do it right. I think they had a set strategy along those lines in mind leading up to the expansion draft and did a pretty good job of sticking to it. -

Apparently it was agreed upon back at the trade deadline.. I'm confused why it had to be so much. There were a lot of goalies available though. -

at least we didn't trade a second for who they would've probably drafted anyway.... -
Ah. He's a UFA.. and it was already official that we weren't signing him. All UFAs are able to be protected or exposed by the team they played for last year though.
