I absolutely get a kick out of the chiadenfreude from the username rising_oil_prices. What a poor choice.

If they sign all 3 you gotta think that’ll be 32M (16, 10 and 6?). Add that to nurse and draisaitl

How long until we start seeing the media start talking about Bouchard taking less salary because he is purposely having a bad season, since he knows they are a playoff team, so his cap hit will be lower?

One of the most ridiculous comments I’ve read on here, and that’s saying something.
And Peters was relieved of his duties almost immediately after this came out.

And Dube was no longer a member of the team almost immediately after this came out.

Kinda different than the BS Dumpsville does on a regular basis by continually giving second and third chances, non?

I have heard the same thing.

What's important, though, is whether they apologize.

They'll be fine with monster contracts to aging McDraiBoosh

They have a #### ton of high end prospects in the system and a plethora of draft picks in the next couple drafts..

Easily fill out the roster with home grown talent. Especially with there track record in that area of team building.

I'm amazed you managed to type that. Is your keyboard on fire now? Any components struck by lightning?

Don't forget Bob Nicholson was also the CEO with Hockey Canada from 1998-2014 during their various coverups. He obviously knew what was going on with the junior teams, and did nothing to resolve the situation. It'll be interesting to find out how much those within Hockey Canada knew about the numerous assault allegations as they start going to trial.

There's like a 10:1 criminal/misdemeanor ratio between the Oilers and Flames so it's no contest. Also the Flames don't go out and intentionally hire them.

It was so rich when the oiler buffoons were in here last season making a racket about Dube. Looked in a mirror lately?

Yes this is real. Even TSN knows the oilers are a joke.

They would have signed Virtanen too if he didn’t end up sucking on his PTO. A guy that even Kane avoided having his photo taken with.

How well does a good defenseman play when forced onto their opposite side? What about a terrible defenseman?

Knob moving Nurse to RD, because....

To be fair, I'm not sure Stauffer knows his left from his right. It could be his error.

Even the game tracker on NHL.com routinely mixes up players' positions while they're on the ice. For instance, I've seen it showing Kadri on the wing and Kuzmenko at centre. I suspect the people in charge are only concerned with getting the line combinations right, and don't care if the positions on each line are wrong.

the pre-plan the parade top 6 are back to the original set


the best 3rd line in playoff history has been shaken up with Henrique down to 4th line duty and Ryan promoted

I thought they might try to put Arvidsson on the third line to give them more overall depth...but nope.

That bottom 6 is old, slow, and is going to struggle offensively for sure.
