The Oilers Report

I think the #Oilers need a coaching change. I would bring in MacT as Interim Head Coach. He is experienced, knows the team and players.

Would Kenny Holland deal Doughty for Nurse? Even out salary.

Does this move make Henrique expendable? Any chance he would waive to move?

@PuckPedia So could they add 2.75m of salary by deadline? But only 2 million would be able to play in playoffs?

As part of trading Mangiapane for Dickinson & Dach, #LetsgoOilers added Lazar to LTIR. After the trade & LTIR move, they have $475K cap space remaining in LTIR with 22 active players (13F/7D/2G) + Janmark/Lazar LTIR. If the projected roster for their next game dressed in playoffs, they’d have $2M of playoff cap space. puckpedia.com/team/edmonton-…

Hearing Connor Murphy moves to Edmonton for a second round pick, with half of his $4.4 M cap hit being retained by the Blackhawks.

@oilers49er He is currently injured so can’t waive him.

@OilersReport Janmark

Kapanen would be logical choice to go on waivers.

Oilers sign Jack Roslovic

Connor McDavid 2 years 12.5million.

McDavid extended 2 years.

The #oilers would love to free some cap space for a deadline acquisition. Wonder if a move to trade Ty Emberson is then next move. Could they find a D man prospect or even forward in return a few years back of Emberson? A reverse deal to the Howard move. Regula is also an option.

This is a really good bet. Wow. Love it.

Curtis Lazar returns to Oil Country! Key part of the @EdmOilKings 2014 Memorial Cup win. Hard-working, honest right-shot Center (51.2% on face-offs last season). Slots in as a 4C for the @EdmontonOilers who can PK as well.

Andrew Mangiapane 2 x $3.6M Edmonton

From who is left as UFA’s, who should the #Oilers sign?

Would you have wanted Oilers to sign Connor Brown at 3 million for 4 years?

Would you have signed Corey Perry at 1 year 3.5 million?

Sad to lose Brown and Perry, yet those prices are too rich. Oilers are making wise decisions… patience… they will find some value deals hopefully

@TheFourthPeriod @sportsnetmurph Was that just negotiation techniques leaking that he might go to Western rival… just to get more money?

What a heel turn among heel turns... Brock Boeser is staying in Vancouver on a 7-year deal. Per @sportsnetmurph, Boeser is $7.25M AAV

Hearing Boston/Edmonton discussing a Viktor Arvidsson deal. We’ll see.
