<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>uphere</b></div><div>I am not a fan of Russell, but I do think he offers some on-ice value if he is deployed as a 5-6 d-man, where he is less likely to be exposed to higher end opposition.

Neither Chiasson nor Puljujarvi have lived up to expectations that were established for them when they were drafted. However, it seems inaccurate to state both are fringe NHL players. Chiasson has a Stanley Cup ring and has proven to be a strong role player wherever he has played. Although he did not repeat his 20-goal performance, he still made very positive contributions last season and he is exactly the kind of player that is needed for the kind of season we are about to watch unfold. Puljujarvi has already proven himself capable of being a decent NHL 3rd line forward. Time will tell whether he can become a solid top six player.</div></div>

Puljujarvi hasn't proven anything at the NHL level. I think he's earned a shot but I can't say with any confidence that he's better for the team than someone like Archibald, who can kill penalties or Chiasson who can score on the PP.

Sujet: When Klefbom goes on LTIR
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>coga16</b></div><div>dont the oilers have to make moves to be cap compliant before they are allowed to LTIR Klefbom? Even if they wait to sign Bear and Lagesson after LTIR, money has to be moved out first so they can be cap compliant prior to training camp opening and they can LTIR.

I think if they wait to sign their RFAs once training camp starts, they can be compliant by sending Yamamoto "down to the AHL" since hes waiver exempt. But if they sign noe of their guys then real money has to be moved</div></div>

They will also have one too many forwards so one has to be waived before the season starts. I think in this example Khaira has been waived, so that's an extra $1M in cap space before Klefbom goes on LTIR.
