trading Gagner for a 6th AND retaining salary (which they can't do anyways) to Arizona would be disastrous...we'd still need a winger to replace him and overpay in the UFA market
not sure how this doesn't benefit the Oilers

So getting a player back for Gagner in Percell that was going to be bought out by the Lightning is what constitutes for a win these days for Oilers fans? Have things really got that bad that you guys celebrate trading bad contract for bad contract?
