Did we really help the Oilers out of cap jail? They had to move Smid to sign Bryzgalov and are now at the 50 contract limit. Seems to me they didn't get much help and we got better because of the deal. At best the Oilers are in a position where they can make another deal, but it is going to have to be a balanced deal contract wise, which doesn't help them much.
49 contracts
