Pretty good for a guy with a career high of 24 points. I guess he's a top 6 winger on the Oilers though...bargain?

That doesn't seem like top 6 money these days.

This has potential to be a very good contract for them

too short, should have signed him for triple that at max term.

He's not a bad player, reminds me of Calle Jarnkrok. Plays bigger than he is, good developing two way game etc. Likes to carry the puck but the finish or offensive game just isn't there. Think he'll be a valuable player on the bottom lines.

That's why I sarcastically said it was a bargain....I don't think Podkolzin is a top 6 player either. It was a dig at the Oilers' lack of winger depth. Fun fact, all of the Oilers wingers on their top lines combined for 69 points last season. Mangiapane leads them with 28 points last year.

I was also wrong before. Podkolzin had a 26 point season one time.

Some of my buddies who are Canuck fans hated that the Canucks lost this guy, feeling he never got a fair shake in Vancouver and could have been really solid, but have changed their opinion now that he's no longer a Canuck! He's always seemed like a bottom 6 guy to me.

Next we’ll see the Mangi 7x7 extension after he puts up record points in his first few games before his game disappears.
