I tend to believe that the Nurse vs Hanifan comparisons aren't going to be close in the years to come.


Nurse isn't what I'd called an offensive dynamo, and watching him, I don't think that he's all that consistent or great in his own end.


I tend to think that the Oilers believe they had a potential Dion who won't be crippled by a hip problem that destroyed his skating, I believe that have a player that's more like a bit more competent Dennis Gauthier.


I honestly think that he will get badly exposed when they play him in their top two this year and become this years Oilyaz fans version of Jeff Petry or Theo Peckham.


The pressure on Nurse will be immense if he holds the Oilers hostage and forces them to trade one of their few offensive assets in RNH for cap space.


Oh and I couldn't be happier about that thought, then they can clamor for his trade and that back jumping idiot can ply his trades in the East.
