He's one of the best faceoff guys in the league and a solid 2 way player. Waiting for the term but this is a solid signing. He's a good penalty killer/bottom 6 center (3rd liner).

Meh.
I'd preferably like a bit more offence from my 3rd C but he's great on faceoffs.

Centre Boyd Gordon now an Oiler. These aren't home runs Craig MacTavish is hitting here. Doubles and singles.

Quality 3rd line possession center capable of playing the other teams best to a draw and that makes life easier for the top 6 as a result.

ya his advanced stats are great with possession and faceoffs as well
depends on term but he's a huge upgrade over Horcoff in that 3C role for what it brings

So the Oilers signed a 29 year old version of Tim Jackman to 3 years and they're stoked for this?
Am I missing something? Or is this just par for the course for Mulletville fans?

Doubles? No.
Singles and sacrifices? Maybe.

Depending on price/term, that's actually a solid signing by the Oil.

From where? With who? What has he done to this point? And how much are 3rd line C's really worth?

Not a fan to be honest. Wanted Grabovski as a 3C.
