Lol an Oilers fan I know said Kadri was a terrible signing because "he's gonna tear the room apart, he's a poison apple".

Mmmkay. In case anyone was wondering he's also of the opinion that the Kane and Campbell were all Edmonton needed to get past Colorado this year. Even though they had Kane. And better goaltending.

Are you sure he didn't say 'Kane'?

3. Swat mosquitoes.
4. Play ‘Name That Smell’.
A popular intermission audience engagement game during stoppages in play at Rogers Place.

Oilers fans talking up their team because they think they improved a few positions.

Does no one in Edmonton see McDavid and Draisatl as the two most obnoxious athletes in hockey today. Everyone else in the hockey world see two guys who are in the game for individual accolades. Don’t think pissy and Mc######bag are everyone’s dream teammates despite what the Edmonton fanboy media might think.

How are the oilers adding anything?

They're like $6 million over the cap.

They aren't. They would have to move out equal money to bring someone in.

Kane even at half retained would require a third team retaining cap, as the only players the Oilers can afford to send out would be Yamamoto/Puljujarvi at $3.

If anything they need a D-man.

I think this is just Oilers media trying to generate clicks in the dog days of summer.

Hahaha.

Forget the logistics of it all. Forget the assets it takes. Forget even the other team needing to green light it, as well as the player himself.

McPiss's willpower is enough. They're not the GM either. But damn it, it's enough!

You're spot on with that. Something as small as Gene Pricipe saying the oilers want Kane on a radio show turned into multiple articles saying the oilers are close to acquiring Kane. I'll believe it when a legitimate reporter like Friedman says anything of the sort.

Deep down (maybe not so deep) they know they didn't improve anything, hence the clamouring for Phil and Kaner now.

Also jelly of Treliving making all the sexy roster moves.

i've talked about one of my customers in the past and how he is a HUGE oilers fan... and i mean HUGE!!! we were chatting this afternoon about the upcoming season and he said to me, "it pains me to admit it, but the flames are an even better team than last season".

this guy is also very well connected within 'nhl circles'. i sent him an email on iggy's birthday asking him to text iggy 'happy birthday from a huge flames fan' - and he does.
i do the same thing on the anniversary of the bruins taking out the canucks in the finals - just asking him to send mark recchi a 'high 5' from me - and he does! ha!
he's gotten me TONS of stuff signed by current and past nlhers. so all this to say we often talk about hockey stuff and he is regularly 'in the know' when it comes to stuff going on - so i asked him about smitty. i guess his groin is absolutely toast. could he play - maybe, but with 1 year left he's looking at quality of life after the game and wants to be able to enjoy it. he (smitty) knows too many guys who are retired who have had multiple surgeries after retirement and they just never fully recover so LTIR it is for him.
