So about even but a downgrade to their team. Two meh contracts for one terrible one
Out: Cagguila - $1,500,000
Garrison - $650,000
Wideman - $1,000,000
Total Out: $3,150,000

In: Manning - $2,250,000
Petrovic - $1,950,000
Total In - $4,200,000

Oilers took on $1,050,000 in Salary, and gave up a 3rd round draft pick.

Not bad, but he’s no Milan Lucic (1 goal and only -11, also worst on the team).

Oh I get it. This was a psychological move designed to make Lucic feel less awful about what a bum he is.

Not to mention you can’t bury manning and Petrovic like you could Garrison and Wideman

Surround Lucic with garbage to make him look half decent in comparison

Except he already was surrounded with garbage. It didn't work.

So now they double down on a failed strategy by swapping out their garbage for even smellier garbage. Hey, it's got to work sooner or later!

How Oiler of them.

Several general we suck threads, fire chia etc. About half the first page are threads about how much they suck.

Maybe Chiarelli is planning to make his 2019 New Years Resolution to make better trades than 2018, and wants to set the bar sufficiently low?

Didn’t Manning just sign with Chicago in the offseason? Wonder how he already fell out of favor just a few months in. I always thought Caggiula was pretty good. Quick, agile, some finishing a ability. Oilers might miss him.

Hopefully the fued between Manning and McDavid poisons the dressing room and creates a rift. An unhappy McDavid who wants out would just be terrific.

Chia's phone must be ringing off the hook with other GM's wanting to "help" him.

Seriously though, we almost need a separate Peter Fricken Chiarelli thread for all the amazing things he’s done for Flames fans.
