Scoring Winger

Good for him, he is lucky those kind of ridiculous organisations are out there. He is barely an NHLer, his skating sucks and he is not playing well in his d-zone. Can shoot and has some good transition ability, but thats pretty much it.

He was $925k last year and should probably not be getting more than that. Even that + 10% is a stretch. At $1.5M he will be overpaid. Let’s hope they draw against their LTIR for $2M and then Sekera makes a speedy recovery.

Norm!

We're all making an assumption that this is a Sekeras replacement, but how do we know its not a replacement for Nurse when he holds out?
The other questions are
Is the other Strome brother available?
Do any of the Oilers management have sons or nephews or cousins currently on other NHL team rosters that they can trade for?

Yup, his 2 starts in the playoffs will be immensely helpful in keeping with the identity of the oilers, they were both loses.

I think its clear its going to be a bridge deal at 3.5 which is just going to reshuffle the chairs on the titanic.
If I was Nurse' agent, I'd tell the Oilers that I'd give them a discount that would leave them with cap space, but the bridge deal takes me to UFA.
I wish I could get a million bucks a year to keep the press box popcorn machine clean and stocked

I wonder if the Oilers know that he might not even get his name on the Cup. Jeřábek didn't play the required 41 games or a game in the Stanley Cup Finals so he's not automatically eligible. The Capitals would have had to petition to have his name added, not sure if there's any update on that.

Careful Cap; sometimes there are “other duties as assigned”!

Thoughts and prayers to the Jerabek family.
You have no idea what you just signed up for...

However if he cracks 30 points and doesnt stray below -20 he could be looking at $5M+ next season....which is good!
But he'd have to stay in Edmonton.....which is bad.

You could offer me league minimum for a couple years and I would happily quit my current job and go play for edmonton for a couple seasons... However if I had three offers on the table:
-Edmonton $1mil
-anywhere else NHL, $725k
-Go home to europe and make $350k
I would very heavily consider the other options
but hey I'm biased
