Brutal for the Oilers. I get not wanting to lose the guy to expansion but is a ####ty rental really the best they could do?

The worst of it is, instead of losing Davidson to expansion, they're going to lose a different player, AND Desharnais will walk.

On the pre-game show talking about this trade Loubo thinks the Habs are clearing a spot for Duschene.

LOL Chia continues to show that there's not a bad trade offer that he doesn't fall in love with.

If they were going to do this trade to prevent losing Davidson to the expansion draft then he might as well have kept them for their run to the playoffs and then lose him. Instead he bought a useless player back and he's going to lose both of them anyways.

And now they probably have to keep Kris Russell and lose him as well.

Oiler fans should be really salty about this deal.

Might be trying to set them up to lose Pouliot and his cap hit instead.

Oilers trading away defence? Because they have a glut? Love it!

Funny listening to Chai trying to justify this trade between periods. And stumbling over reasons he thinks Desharnais is a good player.

They basically traded a bottom pairing defenseman that they were gushing over last year for a 13th forward.

Deharnais is absolutely terrible.
