Would have to be a team friendly deal for andersson to stay
I would be ok with Rasmus Anderson for Shane Pinto and Kleven trade
Saying that the Oilers “kinda struggled out of the gate the last couple years” is the biggest understatement of the season…. and we still in preseason! 😂😂😂
Chris great question about cozens and causing the man to break character and great content from Julian you guys been killing it
Life after McDavid starts with getting the right return….🍁
Go Sens Go!!
I'm very disappointed Pinto hasn't extended to an 8-year term. This is a team that has a very tight grouping of fair, long-term deals. An 8-year deal around $7 mil/ year would hopefully show the core is committed to providing life changing money to keep the players
The problem with the Sens is that the pest like behavior doesn't work in the Atlantic at the moment in Post Season Playoff games because most of the teams are very physical and smart enough to not take the bait. That's why it didn't work in the playoffs against The Leafs because they weren't taking the bait. While The Sens were constantly getting baited by Laughton, OEL, and Benoit and taking dumb penalties.
Boone Jenner for Rasmus andersson one for one
CJ needs to take a nap today so all the RFA signings get done.
Dude said sign me up for the same Final match up three years in a row? Good god
Post McDavid Oilers has a ring to it.
You say 2 horses for Edmonton in the playoffs, ignoring that Bouchard at age 25 is currently ranked 24th in all time playoff scoring, 2 spots back of Makar, and 4 spots back of Kris Letang and 2 spots ahead of Brent Burns. The only active defensemen ahead of Bouch in all time playoff scoring are Hedman, Letang, and Makar.
Oh snap, listening to this while I watch the Vegas/Mammoth game and Marner just set up Eichel with a real pretty pass. Dang.
Well if its any comfort Jays fans Both the Yankees and the Jays are playing weak teams however if we draw the Jays have the tie break.
Isn't Chris Johnston the most humble guy on planet earth ?
The "humbliest" ?
Flames gonna get duped again by a maybe ill stay
Last team who lost 2 finals in a row… Boston Bruins in 77 and 78.
OIlers do not reach the final 4 this year. The roster is not as good as last year and last year was not as good as 2023-24. Only way McDavid wins a cup is a deadline trade to Vegas for Karlsson (McDavid 50% retatined). Then in 2026-27 McDavid can sign in Edmonton if he wants.
