So what does that leave the Oilers with? about 6 million to find a good goalie and resign Bear who's probably going to get 3 since he's the best darn defenseman in the league.


Nuge has to be traded for futures if they want to do any improvements in their lineup. Turris won't be an improvement.

Pretty solid AAV at 1.65 for the Oilers.

Another 4th liner to play on McDavid's wing.

Didn't Turris clash with Tippett in Phoenix?

They are also counting on Klefbom to be out on LTIR for the year pretty much

2 years? Why would Turris do that?

1 year in hell, get your stats inflated and cash in.

He's not a good fit there.

Soft 3c that needs to be heavily sheltered to produce.

The money is more than fine though.

I'm hoping he's just Gagner 2.0

Turris is done as a regular top 9 forward.

Not a bad deal, but nothing significant either. If anything, it's a slight overpayment, but not as bad as overpaying Ryan on the 4th line I guess.

I knew at least one of the bought out players would go to Edmonton. I didn't expect a 2 year deal though. I thought it would be a 1x1 like Bobby Ryan

I don't see how he will find any more success there than Ryan Strome did.

Expansion draft strategy.
