Lmao they thought they might get a 0.5 PPG NHL rookie in return for an older expiring rental?

Actually because he played in the USHL the year after being drafted, he is eligible to go UFA after this season

Glad he's in the East now, hated playing against him when he was a Duck. Would've considered giving up a 3rd for him to be honest. Nick Shore is the same story when he was a King.

Well, if you're stupid, yeah. But realistically, this is basically what he was worth.

The Oilers are the gift that keeps on giving for Flames fans.

He was their 1st line winger.

Yes, he's a UFA. But look at some of the returns today.

Also, we got what - a 2nd and a 3rd for Russell?

A 3rd is a laughable return for the Oilers.

Mind you, he was acquired for a fourth.

So if we look at it as one big trade

Letestu, Davidson and Maroon

for

Aberg - A suspect prospect
Dudek - One of Jersey's worst prospects and probably not likely to be signed as he's not worth a contract space.
3rd round pick 2018
3rd round pick 2019

If Aberg doesn't turn out, this is a massively bad asset sell off by Chia.

Basically they've gotten nothing to be excited about in Edmonton.

Apparently Chia only has Shero and Snow’s cell numbers.

Ha! Who wouldnt? With a big fat paycheque no doubt.

Get him the tried and true $6x6 and he'll be back faster than an STD.

Every player says that when they leave as a Rental. The translation is basically

2006: Peckham, 160 games, 17 points
2012: Khaira, 74 games, 21 points
2013: Slepyshev, 84 games, 20 points

Their greatest 3rd round pick this millennium: Jack Stortini
