The Oilers a right against the cap. It looks like they will get no relief next year either.

Ah Jason Garrison, the last bastion of the truly desperate....

Its a match made in heaven really. 1 year for League Minimum means that absolutely nobody else in the NHL wanted him.

Absolutely nobody.

Did he get an NTC too?

A #5-6 D man that has a history of fitting in as a #4 ( Tampa 2014-16) --- 40 playoff games 19:29 ice time.



Seems like fills the same role as Mike Stone and Engelland but at an end of the career bargain rate.

Chiarelli: did you want a NMC?
Garrison: no thanks, I’m good. Move me when you can.

Stone and Engelland are physical defensive defencemen. Garrison is not. So no, not the same role.

You’d know that if you actually watched hockey but we all know you spend more time looking at stats and salaries than actually watching hockey.

Engelland and Garrison were in the same organization last year. Engelland was 3rd on the team in TOI/game. Garrison was a full time AHLer.

Any comparison is ridiculous.

Garrison can barely skate.



This is a desperation signing.

No idea what compelled me to do this:



Yes, I realized Schremp was spelled wrong afterwards... but it seemed more Oiler-esque to leave the typo.
