Holland didn't math this properly. He's actually subtracting from his defensive depth.

Overpayment, and deals like this are why Edmonton is perennially terrible. That said, if they go deep and the D depth comes into play, its a smart move, but still a big overpayment

What's the consensus? They hate it? Overpayment?

Of note 2nd round pick in a projected very deep draft. And with the Oilers cap issues it could be a very high pick in the 2nd round. Shrewd move Ken….. hahahahaha

there are conditions on the 2nd and a 7th also heading to Montreal
https://twitter.com/user/status/1506017391595032578
condition is basically if the Oilers have to transfer their 2022 2nd to Chicago because of the Keith trade, the pick becomes a 2023 2nd

“Hey Kent, it’s Ken, what’ll it take to get Kulak from you?”
“Ken who?”
“Holland…you know…GM of the Oilers”
“Oh, the rest of us GMs call you Kenny in our GM group chat”
“What’s the GM group chat?”
“Oh never mind that…so uh…well Braun just went for a late 3rd so maybe a 4th”
(Katz and Lowe yelling in the background) “Kenny!… Kenny?….Tell him we’ll give a 2nd!…oh Lagesson….not enough? ok a 7th too!”

This is a brutal trade when Braun goes for a 3rd.
Kulak wouldn’t be in the Flames top 6 and yet the Oilers paid #4 value to get him.
If the Flames paid a 3rd for Kulak I would have been pissed and when I heard the Habs wanted a 2nd I thought it was a laughable ask.

Kulak is a 6/7 dman and doesn’t play regularly for a semi-competitive NHL team. Coilers give Lagesson (who is already equal to Kulak) + 2nd + 7th………… HFOil should be screaming for Chiarelli back. Kenny is an embarrassment and without a doubt worst GM in the league

Nice of the Oilers to give Kulak a number that will remind Oiler fans of what picks they gave up to get him

Can't recall seeing that before. Especially since Brassard is a 4th liner, who likely won't return following the end of the season.
