The biggest issue I have is that they could have gotten a much larger return if they had moved on prior to an offer sheet. Paul Fischer being a top pair d-man someday would be the only thing that saves this for me.

Weird, app might not be working. Can’t get into the article.

Tough question. Brown was trending upwards for sure. Perry scored 19 but half his goals came when he was playing with Draisaitl. I don’t think he’d get as much time in the top six this year if everyone is playing closer to expectations.

Good luck!

The real test will be how all these extra signings pan out like Tomasek, Hutson, Marjala, Samanski, Carfagna, etc. if any of those hit, definitely optimistic.

I like all of these moves so far. 8 years for Frederic is tough but there’s still a bit of an Edmonton tax for term and he was in demand by a bunch of teams. Likely had to outbid.

I like O’Reilly but he was projected as a 3rd line center. Howard is closer to NHL ready. Frederic and/or Nuge can slide into that role and Hyman, Howard, Mangiapane, Podkolzin & Savoie can fill the wings on the top lines. 2027 1st will be getting used at the deadline for whatever doesn’t work.

Me either but the guy in Philly is still there so it’s probably not likely.

Yeah that fits. I wonder if the goalie coach they’re bringing in would have any connection to Hart

08.07.2025 03:17 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

100% chance of someone signing him even if the Oilers don’t. (If the verdict comes back not guilty)

Is Carter Hart even an upgrade anyway?

You mean like find a team who overpaid UFAs and offer sheet one of their RFAs? Or find a bargain UFA who didn’t get the team or term they were looking for?

Offer sheet Laferrière?

Hey, at least we won’t be the oldest team in the league?

Savoie I guess? Philp has to turn into something reliable fast. Tomasek & Jarventie could be NHLers too I guess.

Fingers crossed the kids develop. No way we could afford 4x3 for Brown or 3.5 for Perry. You were right about people overpaying (Not these two, but term & salary given out so far has been ridiculous for others)

Make that Stanley Bruce Thomson. Had the last name wrong. He told me a story about how Carmen Madu managed to get a Marvel character named after him. (Kitty Pryde’s father is named Carmen)

Stanley Bruce Johnson co-founded it. He was still a professor at Macewan up until a few years ago. Should still be able to track him down

What if the sum total of your work (and other writers) made it realize that what was happening is wrong and it’s sabotaging its own purpose? (Not likely but fun spin on it)

How much would Bo Bryan cost and how much of it could they recoup if someone offer sheeted him?

I swear this sounded like a writing prompt in my head for a moment. AI finally evolved a set of ethics and immediately offed itself when it realized what it was being used for.

I loved Spacewreck from the same series. I love a good abandoned spaceship mystery

This is my obligatory first post so I don’t get caught in the β€œno followers and no posts” filter. I just don’t talk much.

Nevermind. Guessing they just want to accumulate cap space. Still don’t understand the Bruin’s though.

So there’s no cap hit for claiming Regula? Why wouldn’t Boston have activated him before putting him on Waivers to make it less likely someone would claim him? Also, why did Oilers waive Dermott if they didn’t need to clear extra cap room?
