Eventually when you do enough dumpster diving, you're gonna get pricked with a dirty needle.

How incompetent can you be?

Hi Enoch...meet NHL. NHL? This is Enoch.

In my friend group chat one of my friends said that Edmonton is a rehabilitation center for troubled players and Calgary was a safe place for old players to retire at

[PaperBagger'14]

I hope Corey Perry has an insatiable kink for sleeping with Connor’s mothers.

[getbak]

Will Mike Comrie be paying his salary?

I used to joke that I would cheer for hockey team comprised of Hitler Stalin Etc before I would cheer for the oilers. But it would appear that the oilers would go ahead and sign them before I would have the chance

[activeStick]

This sucks because I actually like Perry and think he's a good player.

If Ed Kemper was a serviceable #3 d man the oilers wouldn’t only sign him but they’d also let him carry his severed heads on the ice

[3rd liner]

lol, oilers. How will spec and the pom-Pom wavers up there spin this one? Signing a proven scumbag on and off the ice.
I bet it’ll be ‘every deserves a second chance, look at how we made Kassian and Kane into respectable members of society’. Oilers fans should be embarrassed about this one. Trash organization.

FYP

Yeah I'm not sure what difference he'll make really. What he brings isn't what that team needs, not to mention if he's even capable of bringing it. Maybe some hardened, playoff mentorship.

Oilers are embarrassing but man the NHL is a disgrace.

How can 2 players get terminated and get to go to another team.

Kind of done with this league.

[Caboroddy]

He is a game changer and will certainly help their Stanley cup run. I would love to have him if we were in the hunt, but these past 2 loses will probably lead Conny to start the trade dominoes

So basically a more effective Huberdeau, but for free.

Sure, if you believe 25 points and -28 in his last full season is better than Huberdeau I guess.

I personally hope his deal is bonus laden so their cap next year is totally ####ed

Are you comparing a human being to a disease infected needle? He's a bit of a Dbag, ya. But that's a bit harsh.

Both times of which were the Oilers…….. but just coincidence I am sure.

[direwolf]

The Oilers have now assembled what is arguably the scummiest bunch of reprehensible d-bags in NHL history. Even the 2011 Canucks weren’t this despicable. Can’t wait to see these losers get demolished in the 1st round.

[Bourque's Twin]

Can someone kindly list all the controversial Oilers signings?

Obviously this and E. Kane.

[Atodaso]

Hate it or hate it, adding someone of Perry's ilk for a playoff run is a net positive. If Calgary was actually in a position to compete, I would have welcomed the prick as a rental for what they got him for.
