Well done - that's a pretty strong lineup IMO.

Sujet: Kahun follows EDM on insta

Chiasson was the Oilers best bottom-6 forward last year, he isn't the first guy to get bumped IMO but he might be the easiest to move due to solid numbers at 5v5 and on the PP. I'll be sorry to see him go.

Sujet: Oilers Starting line up

BTW you have several glaring flaws in your lineup - I don't think it plays out this way. The pairings probably will be Jones-Larsson and Russell-Barrie unless Broberg makes the team (he's FAR more likely to make the team than Bouchard), then the third pairing would likely be Broberg-Barrie with Russell as the spare.

Draisaitl is the center on his line. Alex Chiasson won't be sitting, he was the Oilers best bottom-6 forward last year.

Sujet: Oilers Starting line up

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Bmersereau73</b></div><div>Couldn't agree more. I liked their offseason for the most part, I think Turris and Barrie were great value pick ups, but they needed to address their bad goaltending, and they simply didn't.</div></div>

They didn't have "bad" goaltending last season except for the month of December though. Everyone seems to forget how good the Oilers were last year because of the disastrous play-in series, which was only partly due to goaltending. Koskinen was a top-10 starter by sv% and Smith battled to a terrible 19-12-6 record. Goaltending wasn't what held them back.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>DeadWingsv2</b></div><div>I strongly disagree. If he was a nothing prospect, they wouldn't have qualified him. He's finally over the knee issue that's hampered him the last 2 years and he was fantastic before the knee injury. Hockey smarts and hands don't just disappear... He might not be the top 3 guy they originally hoped, but I still think he can be a very valuable 3rd line winger that provides some scoring punch long term.</div></div>

Meh. His production has always been pretty underwhelming. He certainly wouldn't make or break any deal for me.

It won't be for $700k, but Chara in Edmonton isn't as far-fetched as you might think. His agent said he was looking at all offers, and because he has a small family with the pandemic on he's going to be choosing his destination carefully. Edmonton has probably the lowest COVID rate among NHL cities.

Why trade 3 expiring contracts for 2 years of Subban at $6M? I can't see how that improves the team.

He's like Grzelcyk in BOS - great numbers because he's highly sheltered. He's not a top-50 defenseman in the league. If he was it would cost more than a couple of 2nds to get him.

Not a chance. He's only ever played very sheltered, you can't say with certainty that he can even be a top-4, let alone a 1A. That's laughable.

Is Dunn worth that contract? I'm not sure... one thing I DO know is that he isn't ready to play 1st pairing comp. He was one of the most sheltered 3rd pairing defensemen in the league last year.

Up until last year Draisaitl WAS one of them. McDavid has had Draisaitl most of the time right through to December 31, 2019.

Sujet: What the basic roster looks like at this point

Bouchard isn't a lock to make the team, in fact I'd say it's more likely he doesn't since Barrie was signed. Bear obviously needs to get signed, but otherwise there are UFA guys that could come in on the cheap and improve the roster - Kahun, Sheary, Granlund, Haula, etc. for forward. Del Zotto, Hutton, Chara, Greene and Koekkoek should be given a call to see if one will take a 1-year deal for around $1M as insurance on the left side.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Propeller09</b></div><div>Watching him. He is better. He is stronger, his decision making is faster, he is reading the plays better. I don't think expecting him to get better, or at least produce at a higher offensive clip is that illogical.
He used to get no ice time with 63, 37, 88 and now he will get a bunch.</div></div>
The year he got the most time with these three is 2018-19 which also happens to be his worst year. Why? Because those guys are hard matched against the opposition's best and he can't handle the heat. Why do you think Cassidy moved him back into a 3rd pairing role in 2019-20?

Sujet: Edmonton Oilers Should We Sign Duclair

Meh. I think that money could be better spent elsewhere. If you could get Kahun and Sheary for the same $2.5M (combined) that would make the team better IMO. I'm not convinced Duclair is much better than Athanasiou and the fact that every city that he's played in has been quick to move him out despite obvious skill is alarming to say the least.

Define "gotten better", because I'm not seeing it. And he's nearly 27, expecting him to make material improvements isn't logical.

Why would Edmonton be trading one of their top goal scorers + a great depth defenseman + a 1st + a 2nd for a bunch of crap at the deadline?? This makes absolutely no sense.

Sujet: Boston Bruins signed Matt Grzelcyk (4 Years / $3,687,500 AAV)

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>I don't think he's a top 4 dman.
I don't know, BOS really likes their under sized defensemen.
Not really a fan of the term or the amount on this deal.
I guess we'll see.</div></div>

He played 3rd pairing this year, and because Boston hard matches Chara & McAvoy against the opposition's best, that means he was very, very sheltered - more so than most 3rd pairing defensemen. The only time he played 2nd pairing was in 2018-19 (although again, the 1st pairing was hard matched so this isn't typical 2nd pairing minutes) and his numbers don't show great results:

-1.29 CF% rel
-1.47 FF% rel
-0.94 SF% rel
+3.08 GF% rel
-3.11 xGF% rel
-2.26 HDCF% rel
+12.13 HDGF% rel

Lots of luck at play there. What I'm seeing is a good 3rd pairing defenseman who doesn't fare well if he gets moved up the lineup into a 2nd pairing role. That's not a guy you pay $3M+ for 4 years when he won't step onto the ice until his 27th birthday. IMO.

They have a full array of picks, 1 per round. Maybe you can't get one, but they're there.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>BeterChiarelli</b></div><div>Which minor-league LW would be available? I struggled over this personally, as I know the drafted prospects are untouchable and that Koivula couldn't be the first name I considered, as his results were better.

It doesn't make sense for Edmonton to trade a prospect for Jobst or Bardreau: those are guys the Oilers could just sign to a deal. Is is Durandeau? I was under the impression that the Isles would value him higher than Carpenter.</div></div>

Why not just get a late pick in return? Holland needs more picks next draft and it seems like his scouting staff is pretty good at picking up late round potential.
