Now we sign our best Dman to a multi year contract locking in the core of the team for 4+ years (McD, Drai, Nuge, Hyman, Nurse) and all u hear is criticism of Holland.

You can call me Homer Simpson if you like, but I like the Oilers this year to be a top 10 team at the minimum, maybe top 5. I haven't said that ever in past seasons.

You like your team - cool.

How do you feel about $9.25M AAV for Nurse? (seeing how this is a thread about Nurse's contract and all)
