So they tried to trade a player that was so injured he might be on LTIR all year?

Either that, or they're trying to park a player on LTIR who was healthy enough to be traded. Pick your poison.

At least Vegas and Tampa tried to play dumb. The Oilers are just like, yeah we’re going to cheat next time.

The same Oilers fan who tweeted out that Florida would be scared of Desharnais basically said who cares how bad Skinner is defensively they'll just outscore their problems.
Typical Oilers mentality.

Oilers fans are talking about how they are the next mini dynasty, comparing themselves to Chicago, Pittsburgh and LA.
I don't think anyone has told them, that you need a cup to become a dynasty.

Can't believe oilers negotiated with draisatl while in the finals.
No good.

What’s the source for that? In the Jeff Jackson interview he said they have not discussed an extension and won’t until the new GM is hired.

Now that I think about it, is Kane really going to keep himself in shape and step into the playoffs and be a force a la Kucherov?

Good point, Edmonton has played a lot of extra games in the past 3 years (53 Playoff games)
its bound to catch up to them

This is the correct framing.

*this is gossip* but what better place to spill tea than the ENG thread.
There is an old timer who comes by my work to shoot the breeze every so often. He was long time, several decades, scout in the WHL and AJHL. He is also a life long Oilers fan. The Hockey World being small, he starts to talk about Dylan Holloway.
He says that Holloway has one of the worst egos he's delt with, and that seems to be the consensus amongst the old boys scouting club. What's interesting is he suggested that Holloway had a bad ego even in the context of hockey players of whom he figures 80% love smelling their own farts.
What I thought was particularly funny was a story about how Ken Holland hates Holloway and doesn't want to be in the same franchise as him.
Take it with a grain of salt. But I had a good chuckle, and always enjoy hearing this guys insights in the small world of hockey.

Was at Sportchek here in Regina yesterday and saw this. Couldn't help myself and text my Oil Stain friend.
