I don’t want oilers to have any connection and giving up kass for nothing before the first of nine meetings against the flames.... I don’t think this was well thought out sorry.

It’s a good idea but the optics would be bad.

Tell him to stay home. Don't have him report anywhere

Nah. Not interested in this guy at all. Talented player but this young team doesn't need a distraction or bad attitude players like that.

I think it’s a good idea for a team like Edmonton, but I probably try Neal.

Yes, I know kassians deal is one year longer, but the extra space would be worth it. Also there is a slightly higher chance Seattle takes Kassian, and then you can possibly get rid of both.

Neal would be better 100%, but it doesn't make sense for NYR. They could just hold TDA and buy him out at the offseason. With Kassian, they get a serviceable player.

It doesn’t matter. You would be the team that traded for him to get rid of another guy, another guy with 4yrs on his contract. At best you get labeled a heartless ruthless front office that doesn’t give 2 shots about your own players.
