I dont know how they're gonna trade Voracek except in a bad contract for bad contract deal. Maybe for Tarasenko?

If the Flames are out on Eichel they should be all over Buchnevich

Gaudreau one for one. Voracek has an $8.25 AAV for 3 years (makes less than that in cash). Big LHS RW.

Orrrrrrr get Voracek to play with Gaudreau (and they can do breakaways together). Trade Monahan plus more

Gaudreau-Lindholm-Voracek
Tkachuk-Backlund-Mangiapane
Lucic-Dube-Pitlick
Pelletier-Ruzicka-Ritchie

ETA: The Gaudreau trade is if he won’t sign an extension.

Lose Larsson, go after after two defencemen who don't play defence. Makes total sense.

Holland also says they won't be big game hunting on the back-end. With that, millions of Oilers fans voices cried out in terror. No Hamilton for them.
He actually said he won't be "big game hunting on the back-end"?

That must make Barrie feel oh so good.

It wouldn’t take Monahan plus or Gaudreau for voracek. They’d be sending us more than a second and 7th like with ghostbear for nothing.

Voracek is nowhere near the liability GB is. He has similar points to Gaudreau over the last few years. Plus he’s big.

The contract ain’t great, but it’s will look better with a cap bump.

If you can’t sign Gaudreau, you need to replace him.

And Monahan had half the points Voracek did.

I'd rather go younger, even if you're paying for a little bit of potential, than pick up a 32-year-old (when puck drops) Voracek.

I think that'd be a big mistake.

So your logic is to trade one of our highest valued players for a guy that Seattle wouldn't take for free...?

Is Eichel even going to play this year? Guessing when surgery done it won’t be a quick turnaround ?

I hope oilers piss off Barrie during negotiations and he ends up leaving.

Oh, sure, I’d go younger too. But no one is trading promising younger guys.

But let’s rewind. Maybe the Flames can make a much better deal. Maybe the Flyers retain.

Why? I hope he signs 8 years


Their powerplay will be lethal with or without him and he’s terrible besides that

OK, it was dumb. But that was because of the $$, not because he’s terrible. They also didn’t take a number of other good players because of money.

Flyers retain and it’s not bad to look at him.
