Detroit passes. A 33 year old RHD with 1 year left and a 4M cap hit would just get in the way of their young prospects that need experience (RHD-men like: 2017 R2 #38 Gustav Lindstrom, 2019 R1#6 Moritz Seider, 2019 R2#35 Antti Tuomisto or LHD-men like 2017 R3#71 Kasper Kotkansalo, 2018 R2#36 Jared McIsaac, 2019 R2#60 Albert Johansson)....

...besides the last thing any NHL team wants is a d-man the Oilers are actually willing to let go.

DRW can be any team.

then the 2nd part of the statement stands...

the last thing ANY team wants is a d-man the Oilers are actually willing to let go.

Uhhh where's that written haha? Russell is still a very decent number 6, it's just the money that's bad

Edmonton pays to move these contracts. Cap space is at a premium right now.

Lehner gets more.

Benning gets a pay cut less than his QO?

Yeah cause teams got cap space to burn this season...

There are many teams that will have cap room for him... ANA, LA, DET, OTT, NJD, CBJ among others... I'm not saying they should/would/could be interested in him but yeah...

If you pay to move russell maybe. If not then Idk why we'd do it. You can sign dmen on the same level as him for less money in free agency

iv noticed u like 2 argue, & usually u say something that is true but dosnt contradict what the other person is saying & the arguement gets nowhere b/c what both people r saying is right

CBJ dont have cap space... 5 teams have cap space and over 20 teams are willing to pay to move players for more cap space.

Why would the sabres do this?

A 2nd rounder for an overpaid (by a lot) backup goalie???
Easy pass for Buffalo

Koskinen is actually a starter but ok

Didn’t look like it today!

#MikeSmithIsn’tMikkoKoskinen

Good thing money isn't an issue with the cap this year or anything....so yeah my statement stands.

#MikkoKoskinenIsntGoodOrWorthA2nd😂😂😂
