amato 3,210 Report post Posted October 17, 2013 there was talk Wednesday afternoon that the Sabres were working on a deal with Edmonton that would send Ryan Miller or Thomas Vanek and possibly both to the Oilers in a package that would bring Nail Yakupov and more to Buffalo. would be great for the oils to get miller and he could ddefinitely use a change of scenery.. http://prohockeytalk.nbcsports.com/2013/10/17/report-oilers-sabres-working-on-major-trade/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oilers need to start trading from their strengths to address their weaknesses. And they need to start winning soon. Edit: Doesn't make much sense to trade for Vanek, IMO. Scoring shouldn't be an issue in Edmonton. Edited October 17, 2013 by rick zombo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wings_Toledo 233 Report post Posted October 17, 2013 Another example of why they shouldn't have drafted Yakupov in the first place. Although, if he fetches them a solid goaltender or defenseman then at least they got value out of him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WingsAlways 486 Report post Posted October 17, 2013 Edmonton has loads of offensive talent, I don't see why they would want Vanek other than trade bait to possibly acquire a veteran d-man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amato 3,210 Report post Posted November 13, 2013 I thought I saw something on Pro Sports Daily NHL rumors that Philly and Edmonton were having talks about Eberle.... I've seen that mentioned on prohockeytalk as well.. wonder what Philly would send over for him. Honestly I don't think they have much to offer. Oils could use some grit.. maybe Wayne Simmonds could be part of it? Idk 1 St. Michael (the Red Wing) reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
