Fuck you Chiarelli
Will the coyotes retire Datsyuks number?
>>69081696
If he did nothing to address the need for defense and started November with the same forward group they would be drafting 1st overall again.
If he had waited for a Hall deal where he was the clear winner he would be waiting forever.
>>69081696
shot differential is such a fucking meme
not even an oilers fan
>>69081746
They certainly improved their blue line but they took a massive offensive hit. I feel bad for larsson because he's thrown into the fire expected to be a top pairing defenseman. Not saying he won't ever be good but it's a pretty big if.
>ten years straight.
Another ten years to go
>>69081746
You acquired a player that you shouldve been able to trade one of your other 10 surplus forwards for. Taylor fucking Hall for a bust that is a fringe 2nd pairing defender.
There's no way any team trades away their #1 defencemen or pudding ones (Ristolainen (oilers tried him), Seth Jones, Ekblad, Rielly and the likes) for a winger even though he scores lot of points, that's just how valuable #1 defencemen are. So this is the max value what you get from Hall; Decent #2 who has potential to be #1.
There wasn't much Chiarelli could do, he obviously wanted to keep Draisaitl and Pulju. This hurts like oilers fans like hell but their team is now better.
2017 is our year

He's only going to bust because of the horribly managed team he got drafted to.

@Real_ESPNLeBrun
Montreal, Toronto, Buffalo and a fourth team got to make pitches in person to Stamkos this week. Detroit not one of them.
>>69083248
It's gonna be less. 8x8M sounds about right. He is a god yes. I'm sure Hedman wants to win too and with the taxes he also gets paid handsomely.
>>69083191
I wish he could have given him away but I'll take it.

Now stand still and watch as Subban wins two cups for Smashville.
Now that the Oilers curse has been lifted on Hall, how good do you think he'll be in NJ?
How many points next season?
>>69083556
60 to 70 pts maybe 90 if it clicks with Henrique.
>>69083444
>>69083479
>Josi's 26 and gets paid 4M/yr

>>69083556
If Kovalchuk decided to return to NJ, they will become the new oilels. All forwards but no defense.
>>69083583
Even Horcoff got better when he left Edmonton so I think Hall might be scary good in NJ
Shaun Starr
@Starr690

>>69083609
Wait for the season to start jee sometimes if wonder if thoses /hoc/ memes aren't a jewish creation to enslave the mind of proud hockey amateurs.
>>69083620
Hall had a season at 80 pts in 2013-14, he can tear the East apart if NJ plays him better then Edmonton did (wich isn't really hard to do).
>>69083378
guess he didn't want to pay one guy $12 million for 10 years
>>69083599
literally highway robbery
>>69083583
Hall will probably score 25-30 goals and produce 75-90 points. The east is easier to play in.
Oilers need to bring Schultzy back
line 1: Larsson/Schultz
2: Demers/someone else
3: whocars/whocares

>>69083750
If the Oilers were to pick up Matt Dumba could they force him to wear the #55 jersey?
>>69083715
how
>>69083767
The mild ain't getting rid of Dumba.
Just woke up.
It's still real
What i like in life is to send +30 years old players to financially inapt teams in exchange of god tier prospect (here it was Mantha) and see the elderly being put on the block 3 times in a row.
Also just signed Lucic and E. Staal at 5.3M each until 2019.
>>69083800
You sure? They have a lot of blue line depth and a real need for a winger or 2. Not saying Dumba is 100% gone but I wouldn't be surprised if they trade him.
>>69083851
Welcome to Columbus David Clarkson
>>69083851
This one good too.
>>69083877
5,25 until 2020.
How does that even happens.
>>69083861
I can see Folin or Brodin getting traded before Dumba does, statistically that is.
>>69083479
Ellis will be gone though, unless they grab a forward and expose him for the purpose of keeping the blue line intact.
Is Fowler still in play for the Ducks?
RNH for Fowler?
>>69083991
They'll protect 8 skaters. Josi, Ellis, Subban, Ekholm, Johansen, Forsberg, Neal, Smith. Lose Wilson in the expansion draft. If they make a trade or sign someone better then Smith gets bumped out or they can make a deal to save him or just let him go.

>>69082941
No, you moron. That's not how doubling works. It went from 0 to 00
>>69084196
He could play elsewhere then in the NHL.
Like the AHL he could teach some rookies how to play like the veteran he is. He truly is a valuable asset to any well-minded team.
That is why the Canadiens will sign him.

>>69084575
>>69084556

>>69085181
Yeah it is but there's no reason why they couldn't get a good team there. The asian market for hockey really seems to have grown over the past few years and I think that even tho it's a total jew move to put a team there, it might be good for hockey overall.
>>69085237

>>69085153
It really isnt.
Again, i've checked almost every single game last season of the habs, unlike most people on /sp/.
I've seen him hog the puck for 40 seconds, runnign the puck up and down the enemy territory until he tires himself and a forward pluck the puck from him and start skating for a 1 on 1.
Or him throwing a dumb pass trough 2 enemy sticks for the same result.
>>69085275
The IIHF isn't russian so far that i know.

>>69083556
40 points at best. He's a poison in the locker room and will be out of there in a year from now. The only reason why he's put up so many points was because he's played on stacked lines his whole career.
>>69085002
Every top player gets empty netters and that Pacioretty gets more than other top players means he's better at that skill than them. You should see how many empty netters Gretzky got when he set his records

They have tried to expand to most of these places, but there's always been a lot of controversy. A couple of mouths ago they announced a KHL team named Crowns that would play matches all over Sweden and Norway, but it apperantly isn't happening after all.

@NHL_AaronWard 4m4 minutes ago
Boston Bruins and Torey Krug agreeing to a 4 year/ $5.25M AAV deal.
>>69085960
Can you blame them? He's a major liability despite being a very good hockey player. He's had so many chances. He has absolutely zero discipline and acts like an entitled frat boy.
>>69086138
Not terrible.

>>69086349

>>69086393
Is that Pulju?
>>69086422
If Edmonton had a riot every time the Oilers fucked up, it would be like Somalia out there.
>>69086466
It's McDavid
>>69086292
That's actually not a bad trade. The only problem is that Barrie won't really help for the defensive problems Edmonton has. He's a good offensive defenseman but pretty average defensively.
>>69086466
it's the guy who promised him he would play with hall
>>69086499
thats where larsson fits in i guess
Krug contract is bretty good. Near the Vatenen number. I like it.
Ill miss sidenberg. Rip german machine you just got too old.
>>69086499
The oilers badly need an offensive righty on the backend. Hope they sign okposo if this happens
>>69086536
I get that but eberle for barrie is nothing but a lateral move. Better off dangling RNH for a 2 way defenseman.
>>69086138
too much aav but that manlet is underrated a bit. he's a leader for them and he's young and can score a bunch of goals too. given that jason demers is gonna get like 4.5, that isn't bad. they should have signed him before right when vatanen signed, cause they would've gotten a better value, but as it is the price for decent D is absolutely retarded.

No.

Loui was never going to fucking resign here, its managements fault for not dealing him and Jacobs fault for pushing for playoffs when they need to rebuild

Didn't work that well except for a fluke season.
>>69087985
It's bait, bud
>>69087784
I'd say he's 3rd behind Price and Holtby. Might even be better but his numbers suffer because NJ is garbage.
>>69088400
Actually poo jersey inflates his numbers because they play boring defensive hockey
Taylor Hall will never make the playoffs in his entire career
>all the pads babbies will be exposed this season
Good times ahead.
>>69088607
But NJ is better than Edmonton
>>69088704
Edmonton will finish higher in the standings than poo jersey. Their prospect pool is absolute trash
>>69088607
NJ was in the top tier of shot suppression, but were rock bottom at the other end – Schneider has little room for error
>>69087985
Kessel is a better player than Malkin though.
>>69088804
I doubt it. Other than Vancouver, who is Edmonton better than in the western conference?
>>69088828
They were second in the league in CA/60, fourth in FA/60
>>69088980
Avs, >mild, flames, coyotes right now. It is hard to speculate on who will get worse and who will get better desu.
Meanwhile poo jersey has no future and just traded one of the biggest reasons they had such great defensive numbers. Sure hall could put up 60 points, but new jersey is a worse team than the oilers now by far
>>69089265
>avs
Yeah no.
>mild
This I could potentially see. They're in for a rude awakening.
>Flames
No chance now they have an NHL starting goalie.
>coyotes
Maybe. Depends if they call up strome and dvorak.
Is >habs the new >rags?
>>69088400
I'd take in no order: Dubnyk, Lundpads. Crawford, Fleury, Bishop, Luongo, Quick, Jones, Howard, Mrazek, Rask, Gibson, Rinne, Bobrosky, Holtby, Price, Varlamov, Halak, Andersen, Mason, and Neuvirth all before Schneider. He isn't even top 20
>>69089397
avs are fucking trash and will be until they trade roy
flames are dogshit and just hired the canucks assistant coach unironically
The oilers will be around 10th worst next year, poo jersey is only getting worse, pretty much all of their best players are old

Avs maybe.

Did nashville really get better with the subban trade?
I don't think so
>>69091180
Michel, ta yeule.
>>69090223
Larsson is better than Ekman-Larsson as far as swedes go at least. People try to say that Karlsson is the all offense meme forward, but its EL who can't hit and can't box out.
>>69091180
Yea
>>69091180
Retarded people think so. They fell for the Subban is a norris D meme.
Nashville is in for a rude awakening when eh starts his 2-4 per game chimpouts.
Dustin Brown sounds like wants to kill himself
>>69091256
>>69091284
Im not a frog tho, I just dont think Subban is really that great defensively, and he turns it over constantly
>>69091315
Yeah and all the chimpouts
I am not convinced that weber won't be an improvement, at least right away, maybe not in a couple years
>>69091175
lets go oilerades
>>69091315
They said that about Neal too and it hasn't been an issue. Maybe the shitty Habs coach just can't keep his players in check.
>>69091359

I think I'm slipping into the oil bandwagon boys

probably the best thing he could do for the kings since no one wants that gooning bum with a huge shit contract that no one wants
>>69091587
Hop in
>>69091180
They're not quite as good right now since Weber is the toughest SOB in the league and a great defender. 3 years from now when Weber slows down it will look like Montreal got fleeced, 7 years from now when Weber retires early and destroys Nashville's cap it will look like a terrible trade from both teams perspectives. Its just a bizarre trade for everyone involved.
Lel PK for Shea actually happened
>>69091629
I actually only want to be an oilers fan for this guy desu kek
>>69091417
Because he has it all the time.
>>69091667
Weber's already slowing down.
>>69091483
But all his players are in check except the nigger ?
The one nigger that's a fuckign show off, hogs the puck like a madman and do everything to show up on tv and shit?
Seriously, betting you 20$ not getting to be C soured him up and he started shitting on everyone else.
Worse part is that the ''media'' really fuckign try to pass it as if subban was some hero or unnapreciated star, while a large amount of Habs fan fuckign dislike his retarded decisions making and incredibly bad defensive play
Maybe if Nashville coaches can impress on him that runnign up and down the zone for a minute to end up turning the puck over is retarded is bad play he will become a good D, but the chances are slim to none.
>>69091796
nah his turnover per 60 is like the worst in the league senpai
How long before Finns realise being an Oil fan is suffering and go back to the Panthers?
>>69091667
Weber is already too slow to play Lavi's system, that's why they traded him.

>>69091667
>3 years from now
>when Weber slows down
Weber's already slowing down. He's moving at a third-pairing rate already, which is extra insane considering the Habs like to run a highly mobile defense.
Good thing they now hold Weber's contract until he's 41.
>>69091920
Laviolette's system is shit, which is why the Preds don't finish as high in the standing anymore despite having more talent.

Pierre LeBrun
@Real_ESPNLeBrun
Interest sky high in Milan Lucic. Told that Montreal among the many teams showing interest. Edm, Van, Dallas, etc. No shortage of interest
>>69081901
Truth
>>69092429
Rinne's statistical decline has everything to do with the poor system imposed by Laviolette. Its no coincidence that when he was in Philly they had poor goaltending stats and then when he leaves they go way up and its no coincidence that when Trotz left for the capitals Holtby's stats went way up too. The amount of turnovers and odd man rushes cause by Nashville's new system is directly responsible for the problems Rinne is having.
>>69092572
>thinking someone would leave low tax sunny florida for a frozen socialist tundra filled with shitskins
"PK was branding himself as PK76 and not as PK of the Habs, the feeling was PK was using the Habs to increase his own brand"
who /Edmonton/ here?
It's another Thunderstorm, it's been like this all month. Should we be worried?
>>69092624
Except Rinne was bad in the last Trotz years too. What ruined him was his injury he sustained in the KHL. He hasn't really been the same for a full season since that, the surgeries, the infection, etc.
Preds under Lavi this season allowed the fewest scoring chances in the league. You're talking out your ass.
>>69092725
it certainly wasn't because habs wanted a defenseman they could trust instead of a 4th winger that memed his way into a norris
side note. was doughty getting the norris a signaling to the rest of the league that if you want a defenseman of the year award you have to actually play defense instead of just having just having a D next to your name on the roster?
