They waited to the last minute to give you this move. lol. I like the signing.
To small of a player they needs some big grit guys oilers will get dog walk with the panthers
What happened with Jeff skinner??
Finally some good news
If you put mangy drai podzy 😮 it’s going to be a banger.Arvidsson replacement also small but finally a player that doesn’t fall all the time 👍🏼
Awesome signing Woo hoo 😎🚔
Go for Canucks Silovs
What about the goalie situation?
bottom6: shipped out Brown, Perry, Arvidsson, jSkinner (48goals)… but picked up Mangiapane (14goals)…. top6: is concerning as shipped out Kane but nobody has replaced him so 2 vacancies in Top6. Pickard did not seem a problem as was 29W/11L -among highest win% in league !!!! focus seems to be to pay Bouch/Nurse/McD/Drai $50m.. plus jCampbell $5m.. so Mangi is great – works hard… Frederic looks a bad signing/can't score-finish?
Not enough. Need to add size and grit, Can we trade Bowman for Bill Zito? Very depressed seeing Ken Holland's team dismantled.
Skinner is a product of the Oilers. Like the Oilers he's inconsistent. He's young, his best years are coming and he just needs better guidance and training. I'm sure they can iron out his issues with a new, better coach and getting a better number two would help.
ITS TIME TO EAT BREAD!
Great signing, great upside, PK guy, great AAV and only 2 years. Nice move
Great signing. This is a fantastic news.
As a flames fan this is not alright. Lol! Give him back. What a steal at $3.6 mil.
Fuk yeah ❤️
I'm not as thrilled with this signing as some. Hes a bit too small for my liking. Not enough grit and not a 25 goal scorer. Not sure about this
Grest news! Exciting signing for sure, yes. Should fit in well with Draisaitl and e.g. Podkolzin! Thx Patrick🎉🧡💙🧡
Btw. That comment by the organization that they think a new goalie coach will help Is a freaking joke!!!! They fired like 5 head coaches but didnt try another goalie coach for the last 4 years of having skinner. The dude finally learned last year how to play the puck around the side wall for gods sake. He still hasnt learned how to poke check or react quick to rebounds. They must think we are stupid.
Big ticket guy?!?! C’mon. 14g14a in 81? He licks! After leaving Cowtown
Will be a good fit with Draisaitl. Mangiapane for 23goals next year
Small player but plays big. However if Savioe makes the team the Oil will need more big bodies.
Yamamoto Sr.
How about the goalie we need the goalie?
You have to make a more strong team
If you want to win the cup
Stew Skinner we need
We need the goalie Edmonton Oilers if you want to win the cup
But you lost Corey Perry 😮so sad 😔
Stew Skinner he’s not a good goalie bring a goalie and one more defense man then you can beat Florida
You can copy Florida man you have to bring off strong player like Florida anyway you can’t win the cup like that
You can’t go to the even final if you don’t you have not you don’t have enough player yet
That’s why mcDavid
Don’t like he need good player let him play strong
This is nothing exciting…
That's what we all thought about Arvidsson….guess we'll have to wait and see how Mangiapane plays out🙏💯
There's no more cap so unless someone else moves out we aren't going to see much more over the rest of free agent season.
Thanks Patrick!!!
New coach won’t fix the goalie situation. Sounds like the next season will be same as last.
I lkie the move,,,put mangiopani with fredric that would be great on drisital line.
Where is the help on defense and nets
I think Perry will get more points than him next year lol.
Well..I don't think Mangiapane is top 6 FWD here…..but…it can be….I liked resigning Kapannen more to be honest. let's see what comes next.
Just got off work catching up with your update 🍻🍻 I like the signing this is a sleeper signing I believe. This kid can bring it. Goal tending if we could have dramatically improved but it wasn't there. Skinner will be solid for us, at least keep shopping for a good back up or a starter to make sure we're not pushing Skinner too hard, he is still a young tender. Thanks for your rundown Patrick 🍻
He'll get 18 goals, 23 ast this year
Good price and player. Hopefully top 6 and he gels . Thanks for for the update
Please don’t let McDavid go! I cannot be a Leafs fan
Mangiapane is not the top 6 guy. Oilers got some work still. PK, top 6 forward who can score, depth etc…
He ain’t gonna solve sh*t oils roster is beyond cooked
Get rid of pylon Bouchard
Do you hear that? That's the window closing
What are the lines
