No thanks from Edmonton.
1st place team does not need to trade anything right now. Team is fine as it is :)


2.) 25 Oct 2016 20:34:20
I think the combo of McDavid and RNH as number one and 2 centers will be dynamic for years. RNH has developed a great 2 way game. and fits well as a number 2 guy.
As much as i like Draisitle. He would be the one i would consider moving. he's a potential number one center. so i'd find a team that news one. Carolina comes to mind.
Drais for Faulk.? . or Hannifan. one of the 2.
Im probably way off. but Edmonton has to many top young centers and Carolina has a ton of young talented dmen.


3.) 26 Oct 2016 06:33:22
Man sorry you explained yourself well but no. Oilers are in a heavy western conference and you need Drat over RNH. Both are dynamic players, but if you're keeping one you are 100% keeping Draisaitl.


4.) 26 Oct 2016 15:11:59
The reason i said move Draisaitl, is because i also believe he is more valuable. and getting a Faulk or Hannifan will require more than RNH
. Draisaitl is going to be a number 1 center, and that spot is going to be occupied for years to come.
I agree with ya McJesus. jus sometimes ya have to sacrifice a big piece to get one.

Ana: Lindholm

Col: rantanen.

yakattack

1.) 25 Sep 2016 20:44:37
I like it. fills both teams needs but ANA would want first line LW.


2.) 25 Sep 2016 22:07:47
I offered Nylander for Lindholm but BJ took a fit lol and others didn't like it. Nylander>>Rantenen.


3.) 26 Sep 2016 12:59:12
Nylander is not >> Rantanen. Different styles but Rantanen also won rookie of the year in the AHL this year. He should make the Avs and have a solid impact this year.

Edm: nail yakapov jordan oesterle third rnd pick 2017

Nyr: kevin hayes tanner glass 4th rnd pick 2017.

yakattack

1.) 16 Sep 2016 22:19:02
No from New York unless you take Hayes out of the proposal.


2.) 16 Sep 2016 22:37:18
No from the oilers.

Yak strait for Hayes might be possible, but the Oilers have big depth at center so they really don't need Hayes.

Osterle is a slick puck mover D-man. Again with shallow depth at D, losing a Dman in trade isn't a very good idea for the Oilers.

Sorry doesn't look like either team gets what they need out of the deal.


3.) 17 Sep 2016 00:26:07
On what planet would Oilers want Tanner Glass. No from Oilers.


4.) 17 Sep 2016 01:47:01
Thought oilers want a 3C.


5.) 17 Sep 2016 03:30:51
way too much from edmonton. wouldn't even do yak for hayes straight up. terrible trade.


6.) 17 Sep 2016 03:36:08
Oilers moving a D without getting one back in the package is a non starter unless there's a follow up trade in mind.


 

 

09 Sep 2016 18:13:29
Det: riley shehan

Edm: yakapov mark letetsu

This gives detroit a young speedy winger with potential and a fourth line centre while edm gets a third line centre that's about to hit his prime.

yakattack

1.) 09 Sep 2016 18:24:59
Id rather keep Yak, just to see how he does, but I wouldn't mind losing Letestu for Sheahan. Big center but another left shot, and that's 4 left centerman on Oil idk if that'll be good or not.


2.) 09 Sep 2016 18:44:47
Detroit will not trade a big established center for this. Edmonton would be all over it I would think.
Detroit counters with
Detroit: Sheahan and a 1st
Edmonton: Nuge and a 3rd.

I like Sheahan a lot and his size up the middle would really help in dealing with the likes of Kopitar, Getzlaf, Monahan, etc. He can provide offense too.


3.) 09 Sep 2016 19:35:13
Edm is content with Yak. thanks but no deal.

Borje. Can't do that trade. Detroit has already got Sheahan spoken for.

Little Johnny and a 3rd for Sheahan.


4.) 09 Sep 2016 20:58:22
Yak is crap. Let him rot in Edmonton. Why can't Edmonton fans except he's a bust and move on.


5.) 09 Sep 2016 21:19:35
Because he is a #1 OVER ALL. BUST. look it happens we had ours erik johnson.


6.) 10 Sep 2016 00:59:06
Did I just read Johnny g AND a 3rd for Sheahan. WOW!


7.) 10 Sep 2016 01:58:47
Happens all the time. The draft is a lottery, not a science.


8.) 10 Sep 2016 02:44:43
How is Johnson a bust? He plays top minutes in Colorado.


9.) 10 Sep 2016 06:30:08
Johnson ain't a bust tho he's atleast an impact player and made team USA. Yak is a different story BUT he's 22 HOLY CHRIST GIVE THE GUY A BREAK he's A DUMB RUSSIAN AND HAS HAD NO HELP EVER PLAYING FOR OILERS THE MANAGEMENT RUINED HIM!


10.) 10 Sep 2016 07:17:21
Still hate yak tho. But bruh.


11.) 10 Sep 2016 18:49:58
Yak is still young and can improve, but it takes coaches and management to put Him in the right situations, and for him to have The right attitude and commitment. I haven't seen either. Hopefully for him and oilers, this year is a different story becaus he's running out of time (not on his career, but to justify his draft selection, and running out of time with the organization) also the team is running out of time to recoup any kind of value for him.

anaheim: rickard rakell fredrick anderson and sami vatanen

edmonton: 4th overall pick.

yakattack

1.) 03 May 2016 14:56:31
this is interesting, I have a feeling its too much from Anaheim and that Edmonton would want a better package IDK my opinion.


2.) 03 May 2016 16:45:14
Jesus that's a helluva lot either Edmonton adds or Anaheim take out one of those 3.


3.) 03 May 2016 23:53:15
Over payment but we wouldn't want Andersen cause we'd probably lose him anyways. Also if it's not a top D I feel Oil would want to move back in the draft and not just trade it away.

Where's nurse


2.) 14 Sep 2016 07:10:35
Draisaitl


3.) 14 Sep 2016 08:34:42
Why protect an overpayed middle 6 forward? Ill be disappointed if Pouliot is protected. Nurse doesn't need to be protected and yes Draisaitl will.


4.) 14 Sep 2016 09:36:27
Pouliot? Really?


5.) 14 Sep 2016 14:53:06
I was thinking draisaitl was already protected but i forgot that mctavish used to be a gm.


6.) 14 Sep 2016 19:50:27

Eberle
Hopkins

how would u rank ovechkin as a top goalscoreer.

yakattack

1.) 10 Apr 2016 16:06:59
Well if you compare the average goal per season from when Ovechkin played to when Gretzky played, Ovechkin actually outpaces Gretzky in goals in most years. IMO he is probably the best goal scorer of all time with Gretzky, Esposito, Bossey and Brett Hull all close to him.


2.) 11 Apr 2016 05:28:00
Gretzky and Lemuiex in there prime were head and shoulders above Ovechkin. yes. it was a different Era. but they probably both woulda had 100 goal seasons if they did like Ovi. jus shoot and never pass. IMO he's not even he best Russian. I'd take Bure. Ovechkin is over rated. and think there should a reason his teams never win.


3.) 11 Apr 2016 15:37:52
OV is elite and up there with the best ever. Hate on him all you want, he is an absolute scoring machine year after year and has even managed to improve his two-way game under Trotz without losing stride in the goal scoring department. He could potentially end up top-5 (maybe 3, maybe even 1st) in goals all-time by the end of his career. Sportsnet had an article about this around the time he'd scored his 500th goal and compared him to the greats that top the goal-scoring list. Gretzky tops the list with 894 goals, but did so in an era where goals were racked up like peanuts. OV is generating goals in the new era where goals per game is lower, yet he is almost keeping pace with the top-5 on the list. Age will certainly catch up with him eventually but it's not outside the realm of possibility that he could eventually dethrone The Great One, particularly if he somehow pulls a Jagr and plays until he is in his 40s.

It's snide and asinine to suggest OV isn't one of the greatest goal scorers in the game. How many 50+ goals seasons does he need before you can overlook the fact that he isn't Canadian?

What do you guys think the value is on Shultz like does he even have any value?

yakattack

1.) 18 Jun 2015 21:52:16
hes played how many years of pro hockey? dmen always take more time.

duncan kieth is arguably the best dman in the nhl, spent enough time in the ahl developing his game. 2 full seasons to be exact.

a 22 year old stud dman is not a common thing.


2.) 19 Jun 2015 00:52:29
He has some value for sure i'm not exactly sure what that is all I know is that unless its because of cap I wouldn't trade him with his low value defence take longer to develope he may be a good top 4 d in the future.


3.) 19 Jun 2015 02:48:27
Not a whole lot. However, if edm wanted him gone there would be more than a few teams willin to take a chance in him I bet.

its not a good thing because edm has eberle pouliot maroon hall possibly draisaitl on the wing if rnh isn't traded. if edm doesn't pick in the top4 they should trade for defensive help, if its a 2-4 pick they should pick laine, puljujarvi, or tkachuk. the reason for that is they hve size which edm lacks. if its the number one i would prefer they trade it for defensive help. they don't need another centre. dermott isn't a for sure thing and doesn't help them out now. connor brown is decent but edm has forwards that are young or in their prime.

First off arizona doesn't need a center they have doing Doral and stroke for future and have hanzal for one. So if i'm arizona and I have the first overall pick I would draft liljegran or move down for liljegran.

sekera has a caphit of 5.5 mil and a no move till 2020. he was edm most consistent and reliable dman this year. that's a good contract for a freeagent that's a top 4 d. franson got 7 although for less term and he isn't as good as sekera. sekera also brings a veteran presence for the the young d-core, also sekeras better then petry imo.
