Never fear they've got the Ageless Mike Smith and the Fastest Glove Hand in the West back their to cover their ass!

Well...Larsson is gone, 'the deal is one for none' and it looks like Klefbom is probably done.

It doesnt take 2 years to recover from shoulder surgery.

Ceci doesn't do anything well. Just goes to show you, if you're a former first round pick, GMs will give you endless chances to suck.

They get an extra $4.1 in LTIR space with Klefbom out.
Leaves them ZERO flexibility though, so not great...actually, really great.

So obviously this is a terrible deal. But the real question is this: which blue line is worse?

This is amazing. I wonder if they'll try to sign a better goalie...That would mean buying out Koskinen, probably (arbitration case so second window). That would be amazing because it would mean having Ceci on a bad contract plus more dead money. Long live King Holland!

Ceci looks great in an orange helmet. The kids love him too.

What planet is Derek Wills on? On Fan 960 he just talked about how significantly improved the Oilers defence is...

I've never had a very high opinion of Derek Wills' opinions. Sounds like a great human though.

I wouldn't say significantly improved, but it probably is indeed better.

Well, yes, I should qualify that it may be improved but it still....is bad.

Was terrible in Ottawa. Was terrible in Toronto. Had one bounce back year in Pittsburgh. I would bet on Edmonton getting the Ottawa version, and not the Pittsburgh one.

Wills may have the worst hockey sense of anyone working in a hockey-related job.
