Probably because he makes minimum salary
5x less than Mangipane

Pretty sure Mangiapane will clear waivers today.

They need to trade him to do any other deals. Their only choice is to attach an asset to make a deal, Oilers are at the mercy now.

More like number -1 now. Fits in better with Oilers' forward stats.

Do the Oilers have to wait for the corporate lending lawyer to get back from their liquid lunch before they take their next step with Mangiapane?

Anyone else thinks there's a marketing opportunity for Eat Bread playing for Bakersfield?

Dozens of them, I'd guess.

Here's where I would land on this, I've we can pull some oceans 11 Italian job thing, it's a great idea.

I don't think Mang does much to make this team better or worse next year. I think there is an outside chance replacing Coleman at Backlunds side he could be seen a rebounding over the next year.

Step #1, seemingly the Oilers have a plan for the $2M in capsapce they are looking for, find out what that plan is, I assume picking up a $2M player they are shopping something in the range of a failed prospect and a 2nd.

Step #2, quietly scoop that deal from the Oilers, I'm ok giving up a 2nd to make this plan work. I don't really care who they are chasing, sell off Kadri + Pachal to Colorado, Whitecloud to Ottawa, Coleman to Dallas, Lombo to Buffalo. Lots of space for 1 more warm body.

Step #3, wait until deadline day at the 11th hour announce the Oilers deal Mang + 1st for Futures

Step #4, while on the trade call and Edmonton is distracted announce the other deal.

Step #5, trade expiring and resurgent Mang for a 2nd next year.

Make it happen Craig.

Even funnier if they buy him out at the end of the year. Their cap hit would be $2.9M in 26/27 and $333K in 27/28.

Or if they keep him and send him to the minors next year it still costs the $2.7M against the cap.

Good roster management again.

I really hope he doesn't agree to terminate his contract to go play in Europe.

Oilers 50/50 bucks on the DL could definitely play a factor here.
