I'm thinking that Nurse is asking for more even on a bridge deal then Edmonton has to give. If he was willing to accept a two year bridge at 3 to 4 million this deal would have been done by now.

All of this sign him for 3 or 3.5 on a bridge deal by Oiler fans is a bunch of wishfull thinking, Nurse and his agent have to be thinking that he's a top pairing defenseman on that team right now because its a bad blueline and he wants to get paid that way.

I don't think we see him in Oilers silks until a couple of weeks into the season and only afte the Oilers make the move of Sekeras to long term injury or they trade a guy like Kassian for a bag of rocks.
