32 is not old and nobody knows how healthy he's going to be, nobody. I have no problem with Kane or his contract. Find the money somewhere else.
i agree when you’re in the playoffs kane will be invaluable
The blueprint is getting guys that will bleed for the guy beside him,,, selfless guys that win because they don't care about personal stats ,rather , they will look down the fox hole and commit to those guys!
Evander is tradeable March 1, 2025 (16 team list). LTIR until then. He is moveable after 5 months of seasonal play (Oct.9 to Mar.1 – game 58). All you have to do is move Kane's contract for 58 games and then he's tradeable for whoever takes his contract. On a gpg pace, he's a 20 goal scorer every year if he stays healthy. He is also very tough. He has value and after game 58, there's an exit clause for anyone who takes him. It's not a huge risk. [Note: I like Evander's game when he's healthy – this is strictly a cap issue.]
Get neàl off books at 1.9 million
Kane gone first
Thanks for the breakdown! Next season couldn’t come any quicker
Is it possible in the NHL ???(I know it happens in other leagues), where the player wants written in the contract that I have to be in the top 10 players paid, in each season regardless of the cap at the time of signing, or the amount I signed for ? , I definitely see McDavid having this in his next contract, I think we agree the Oilers got Drai cheap the last 8 years, you know it, he knows it, so it’s going to be pay me $$$$ or trade me stance, like it or not, there will be no McDavid discount to stay in Edmonton, you got me cheap, now it’s time to pay up or say goodbye, this is not an easy decision , will be interesting to see how this happens and when and if , thank you
Draisaitl, Bouch and McDavid get to go into their negotiations and decide how much of the pie they want to take, they've earned that right, though Bouch a little less so. If they want a bigger slice, that's fine, but it just leaves less to work with for the rest of the team. They drive the bus here.
We need Kane in the third line with 19 and 55
Mets fan and Oilers fan? I thought I was 1 of 1! My thoughts on Bouchard is we can’t pay him more than 8 million dollars. He’s a great point getter (75% second assists) but is a liability in the neutral zone and our own zone. I don’t like a long term deal for Bouchard. I would rather move Nurse and retain half of his salary so we can get a better Dman. Kane like you said when healthy is good at scoring and hitting, but he’s not good on the third line. He does play much better on the first or second line. As far as the money goes if they move Kane and the cap goes up that’s an extra 10 million. They are already paying Leon 8 so if they pay him 13 that’s only 5 more out of the 10 extra. Already paying Bouchard 3.5 so if they pay him 8 they they’re covered and now need to start thinking about McDavid’s extension.
Nurse got his pay because he was 7th in norris voting the season prior while being top 5 D in 5v5 points, minutes played including shorthanded against top level competition. He had minimal time on the power play.
Holland messed up because A) every major defenceman that signed that summer pushed 9+ mill. B) they had another contract season to see if he could repeat the high level play. If he was signed for 7.5 which was the expectation prior to the playoffs that year, current disappointment with him would be much less. He also shouldn't have been given the NMC/NTC with that high salary.
However, he got two major injurys since that contract, see playoffs vs Vegas where he couldn't turn left. He also got rocked and likely played through a minor concussion. He has not been the same player since these injuries. He should also be forced to properly recover and heal up ie LTIR till Thanksgiving or Christmas until his scating is back where it was two years ago.
LD goes 12.5 to 13.5 x8 years. EB goes for 7.5-8 x2 years. That way he gets locked in till the year after CMD is resigned. Also gives him time to pad his numbers more for the 10+ mill contract coming his way.
EK is going LTIR, resumes play mid March. He gets traded next summer just before the trade deadline to Columbus, Ottawa, Buffalo where they will want need some extra for the young team. Edmonton fans go ballistic due to trading away the character player from the SCF champs!
The fact you think we won't be In a recession in the coming years is a wild take.
Excellent video. Clearly, the gentleman who did this video knows what he is talking about. Well done!
Bouchard has a slap shot and that’s it. He doesn’t play defence. When he was accidentally put on the penalty kill when the Oilers were on a 45 pk roll he let the player get by him and score costing the the kill. Useless. He cost the Oilers two goals against in Florida game 2 and they lost by two. Useless. Save the cap space.
Glad to see one of the more honest assessments on the current state of the Oilers, as opposed to some fanboy commentary pushing for unrealistic deals and expectations such as proposing Drai to take Tkachuk money, and/or saying other teams would take Kane off their hands for a 3rd or 4th rounder…
Kane goes nowhere, move Nurse !
On the Kane topic, doesn't he need surgery or something? Aren't we gonna just Mark Stone him.
Kane stays !
If McJesus is going up to 20% of the total cap hit again something's gotta give. And thats just one of Oilers really big problems, Nurse contract, Kane etc.
They gotta plan upfront to manage such a big jump. Can they handle Drai at $13+ in such a picture
Haha, I'm loving it. Oilers fans are losing their minds over next season because of a few inconsequential moves. It’s really just a way of dealing with their losing the cup a few days ago. Kind of like drinking.
