Zykov only makes $675,000. No matter who they send down, they're at least breaking even, if not saving money.

Assuming it's Patrick Russell who gets sent down, they'd be saving $25,000.

So Zykov lead the AHL in goals last year? If you look at his stats, he also managed to be dead last on his team in +/- with a -13. I'm not even sure how that's possible. In comparison, Charlotte's leading scorer was +15, their leading forward in +/- was +22, and their team leaders in +/- were two defencemen who were +44 and +34.

Valentin Zykov can't save the Edmonton Oilers. No one can. No one.

Really the Oilers have nothing to lose here so I can see why they claimed him. He may look good by default playing with McDavid.

I'm going to assume that post from Dellow was ironic.

He's an idiot, but not *that* big of an idiot.

AHL Goal scoring leaders...
  • 2017-18 -- Valentin Zykov (4 career NHL goals)
  • 2016-17 -- Wade Megan (1 career NHL goal)
  • 2015-16 -- Frank Vatrano (32 career NHL goals)
  • 2014-15 -- Teemu Pulkkinen (13 career NHL goals)
  • 2013-14 -- Zach Boychuk (12 career NHL goals)

You have to go back to Tyler Johnson in 2012-13 to find a player who led the AHL in goals and actually became a decent NHLer (Vatrano might finally get there this season -- he's on pace for 25 goals).

People keep saying this about all sorts of players, and so far Patrick Maroon is the only one who has truly made this kind of a difference.

He's the same guy who seriously argued that Ty Conklin was a better goalie than Martin Brodeur. I'd never assume anything about whether or not he's being serious.

it's probably the "pair him with Chiasson" and "watch out" that gives it away

Yeah, that doesn't help.

Dellow is the worst, but there is no doubt he was joking there.
