[Trade] Oilers trade Ceci, 3rd to Sharks for Ty Emberson

[iloveicedhockey]

It'll be hilarious when they trade the Holloway third for Ceci at the deadline.

It would be hilarious if Pissy becomes even more pissy because his buddy got traded.

It also makes me wonder if Ceci is a popular guy on the team, how the locker room relationships will be with Broberg and Holloway if either are matched.

I wish San Jose didn't let the Oilers off the hook so easily, but this trade is still a downgrade on their blueline.

Draisaitl signing with Sharks next year to play with his buddy Ceci

I actually posted a rumor of that when it came out during the playoffs:

This is either a hilarious inside joke to post a pic of an ex-teammate head first into the boards or Drai is just awkward.

I don't think it's even really inside. Buddies always post embarrassing/funny pics of each other in a ribbing, joking kind of way.

If you have 2 teams demanding a second you either hold to your demands and potentially lose out, or bump it up and get it done.

I know my old gas supply marketing days with RFPs you could make sure you never win one, or you could drop the demands and get it done and build your book.

I think you’re right. it’s more a sign the market has changed than Grier screwing up.

2-3 years ago 20 teams needed space and maybe 5 had it.
Now maybe 6 or 8 are in a cap space pinch and probably a dozen are ready to offer it. Supply and demand.

Most I learned was that pissy actually sees himself as “d rat”.

It would have melted the internet if he had followed up with either “you’re welcome” or “teammates again soon!”

[DeluxeMoustache]

In light of the decision not to match the offer sheets, this is even more hilarious

“Trade Ceci now because the market will never be higher, we are in a great position”

That’s some ####ing 4D grease chess

Ceci for emberson. The trade is 1 for 1.

Errrrmmmm…. No wait a minute…it’s Ceci plus a third. But still, emberson slots into the top 6.

So yeah, it’s 1 for 1.

In E=NG minds it's Broberg for Emberson 1 for 1 and it's an outstanding swap.

That tweet is the most relatable thing Draisaitl has ever done.

Well a short time ago some idiot paid a very complicated 1st to get rid of Monahan so people expectations are high

According to Oiler media and some analytic folks. Emberson is a right handed Nik Lidstrom waiting to break out based on how he played with the Sharks last year.

I guess AZ shouldn't have traded him for Nemeth and NYR shouldn't have waived him, LOL.

This kid's 24 and has been property of 4 NHL teams and has only played for one.

Apparently Knoblauch has coached him and knows him well, he got 3 goals and 9 points out of him.

Too bad Knobby will be gone by November.

You are thinking more of a Forsling than a Lidstrom then?
