Sujet: Please no Duncan Keith
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Luke_xiv</b></div><div>I'm so on the fence about this entire Keith thing. I'd hate so see Jones leave and I wouldn't touch Keiths contract without getting rid of Neal. For me it's either Neal+x vs. Keith (x = picks) or nothing. But man, I don't know. So scared that Holland is going to do something stupid.</div></div>

Me too. I am just going off the reports saying that Chicago wants to open up lots of cap space to sign Seth Jones or someone like that. That seems unrealistic to me honestly. To me, the more likely scenario is that Chicago takes back some salary, albeit not as much as it loses. I honestly do not care so much about Jones because I am so bullish on the guys coming up behind him like Broberg and Samorukov.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stan_Bowman</b></div><div>Chicago rejects.</div></div>

Sorry but I do not think Chicago has much say in the matter at the point at which Keith asked for a trade to Western Canada. Who is going to eat that cap hit?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>exo2769</b></div><div>Says terrible contract in description, but doesn't realize his salary is $1.8M per year. AND, also puts him in the 2nd pair... sounds right...</div></div>

I think "cap hit" is really the issue. Salary would only matter if Daryl Katz was broke and it mattered. Edmonton is a very lucrative team. 2nd Pairing in Edmonton does not matter much because Darnell Nurse is a minute horse. Keith would play less than 18 minutes a night on the second pairing on this team.

Sujet: All the team needs is wingers should be easy
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Copenhagen</b></div><div>You have all three Scratches. That is where older NHL guys go.
Benson just turned 23 and is still to young to be an everyday scratch. If this is your thought process, send him to Bako to play 22 minutes a night.</div></div>

Oh I see your point now. Yeah, I would have Benson in the lineup and ease Broberg and Holloway into the lineup. But yeah, it might make more sense to have the latter two in the AHL and call up Marody. Defensemen often need many years in the minors, but not forwards, IMO. At some point in the minors forwards stop "developing" and stagnate. I honestly do not see how much better Benson/Marody would be after another year in the minors. They are as ready as they are ever going to be.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Nhl_oilers</b></div><div>We need more than that especially if Nuge walks. To me, Hoffman Is a no go, because he can’t play defence. He lives on the PP. I’m thinking maybe Saad, or Hyman would be our best bet. If all else fails, then Tatar. We desperately need a 3c, so I’m thinking of Erik Haula, or Luke Glendening. We also need a starting goalie, which I believe Holland will go for Petr Mrazek... but I hope for Linus Ullmark. I have never been a fan of Chris Driedger.</div></div>

Good points. With goalies you really never know. Who would have pegged Smith to shine like he did this year? Who would have picked Koskinen's game to fall off so bad? Remember the chorus of people wanting to sign Markstrom, Holtby, and Korpisalo, etc. over the summer?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Theozler</b></div><div>Use your head, completely off board, what are you thinking???

Aside from that, I think nuge has found success on the wing and maybe a guy like haula could be had for a third line role.</div></div>

I feel like I am taking crazy pills, but I just don't see Nuge as having much chemistry with McDavid. Wingers are easier to come by than centermen, so I was thinking of an internal solution to the 3C problem.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Zmach</b></div><div>Kahun is not a long term solution for Drai's wing if this situation occured nuge would be beside him and kahun would be 3C.</div></div>

Kahun probably gets taken in the Expansion Draft.
