Maybe they are seeing the tape to tape passes he’s made to send the opposition in on breakaways and thinking it will translate to his own team at some point.

Sekera will play his 3rd AHL game on Wednesday. Then league will listen to Oilers appeal for two more games. League is very rigid on this. They don’t want teams “hiding” players. Need to see clear reasons why vet would need two more games. #LTIRconditioningStint

I hope the league doesn't fall for the Oilers appeal. Obvious stalling tactic.

Ha ha ha. What a mess they are. How much money do they have to free up? $4 million or something like that?

While Delia’s contract average of $1m yr for 3 years is RFA rather than UFA, it furthers my point re: Koskinen

I can't believe no one is talking about the most illuminating and damning point Hitch said in that post game conference.
He talked about 3 games on the road they were playing the right way and 'behaving' the right way. First game back home...no longer behaving like pros.
He's saying there are players in Edmonton who perform when the team has them under their thumb, curfews are in place etc. Once they get home and are on their own time, however...
To me, this is a huge admission from the coach.

It seems that the “Let’s showcase Talbot to trade and get cap space” play hasn’t worked. He plays despite being crappy and the Oil comment that they’ve reached out in an effort to re-sign him... GMs aren’t that stupid... at least the other 30 aren’t.

Nah, I think only a couple. I think they have $4.2M in space now but Sekera makes $5.5

What is their appeal going to be?
"Nobody wants to twade with us!"

Paging getbak.
Is Sekera's cap hit once he is activated from LTIR pro-rated?

Talbot is expected to start Thursday which means after that game, Koskinen hasn't given the Oilers a win in a full calendar month

So they're trying hard to showcase Talbot and build up trade value. Otherwise they would've been starting the guy they just signed to a starter deal.
Not a bad move unless they end up trading for "now" pieces. Which is probably exactly what they're going to do.

It’s about $1.2 million that they must clear.
Since you only get max 900k credit for sending anyone down, they have 2 options:
1. Send two players down, activate Sekera, and have one less player on the roster.
2. Trade someone.

I seriously don't get how they dont play Koskinin. You paid the man. You put the man in that gives you the best chance to win. E=NG
