Math question for you all. Yamo will cost us 3.1 million when he returns. We have 1.125 in Cap (with Hamblin going down). We can't afford him. If JP goes to Arizona (so in the division which is NEVER a good idea for the Oilers) we get 3 million more. That is 4.125 million. With 3.1 going for Yamo and 900K (potentially) going for Bjugstad that leaves us 125K in cap. If someone is hurt and they need to bring up a guy or they want to sigh, oh I don't know, a stay at home defenseman (you know to help with the sieve in D we have, nothing critical) where does that money come and what about the other 3 players from Chicago that the Oilers are targeting (are any of them stay at home D (don't think Towes or Domi are, not sure about the third guy))? Issue is money. Who do we sell (IF SOMEONE WILL BUY THEM) and what do we get? Have fun with the rambling mess above. I consider myself lucky to even type right now (and it's not because of anything recreational).

It Good For The Oilers
Not a bad price, and a big body.

See that Edmonton has Matt Berlin backing jack Campbell tonight
Oilers should trade for LUKE SCHENN… Grit, decent as a bottom pairing, $850k only
Need a big cheap body and JP gone.
Price is right, what does he play like?
Bjugstad is 46% on faceoffs so that's shitty but he would be a solid depth winger
Yes Yes Yes
EVERY SECOND VIDEO there is a different trade target.
You and Dolynny are losing focus on what matters.
I like it. I don't want bison king to go but it will be a decent replacement.
