* Darnell Nurse is a legit top pairing D-man.
|
On the Oilers only because you have no one else and because you’ve never seen a legit top pairing D-man in action before.
Quote:
|
* Jesse Puljujarvi is the winger McDavid needed.
|
Wingman at the club maybe but his game at the rink is full of holes.
Quote:
|
* Larsson is back in form and looking to take a sweet heart deal for the team.
|
Larsson is gone to somewhere better unless he gets a massive massive raise. Don’t worry, you’ve got 6 Giordanos ready to fill in.
Quote:
|
* A bloated contract is likely on the way out in the expansion draft.
|
Delusion is strong in this one. Like the Vegas expansion where they were forced to take a player so reluctantly took Griffin Reinhart because he was the easiest to send to the curb. Seattle will do the same. Have any other junk you traded a 1st and a 2nd for?
Quote:
|
* Dylan Holloway is a legit top prospect.
|
Another rookie to the rescue. Actually it’s another rookie to ruin.
Quote:
|
* Bouchard is a top 4 dman on this team looking at a log jam.
|
The log jam is at the departures gate. With Larsson, Kulikov, KoekKoek and Barrie skipping town tomorrow right after collecting their belongings you better hope Bouchard can handle those 7 minutes.
Quote:
|
* Broberg is here next year with Bakersfield
|
Another rookie to the rescue! All the pressure on the rookies!
Quote:
|
* McLeod is a legit top 9 forward with top 6 potential
|
Guy has 1 assist in 13 NHL games and he’s a lock to play top 9? He’s only a lock to play on the Oil cause there’s no depth.
Quote:
|
* Yamamoto will be out of his sophomore slump
|
And into the rest of his career slump.
Quote:
|
* A lot of cap is being freed up and many of the stop gaps won't be back.
|
To be filled with new stop gaps at higher cap hits!
Quote:
|
* Benson and Marody will likely be in the show.
|
Which show? Oil Change 2?
Quote:
|
* Kris Russel will be making 1.25M
|
When this is the highlight of your offseason you’ve got real problems.
Quote:
|
* Barrie will be gone I will miss his offence but I believe Bouchard is the better player in offense and defensive responsibilities.
|
Lol
Quote:
|
* Kahun and Yamamoto will be up for new contracts and they won't be getting massive raises.
|
Or they retire so they can get out of that hellscape.
Quote:
|
* Nuge may likely take a sweetheart deal.
|
Nuge’s eyes are wide today as he knows there’s just one more day of this bad dream and then he can get back into the real world he’s been locked away from since 2011. Welcome to Seattle Ryan!
