Everybody Hates Raymond Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Edmonton Oilers @EdmontonOilers1m #Oilers acquire forward Matt Hendricks from @PredsNHL in exchange for goaltender Devan Dubnyk. Why does Nashville need Dubnyk? He's not a starter or a decent back-up and Rinne can't be that far off from returning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex the Great Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Interesting move, Rinne could still be out for awhile as he hasn't moved on to more strenuous rehab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanCityCanuck14 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Dubnyk sucks. But this move makes 0 sense for Edmonton. I believe Rinne is injured? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everybody Hates Raymond Posted January 15, 2014 Author Share Posted January 15, 2014 Dubnyk sucks. But this move makes 0 sense for Edmonton. I believe Rinne is injured? Yeah, Rinne is injured but Hendricks is an overpriced 4th liner. Weird trade. Incoming swap for a goalie involving Sam Ganger, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jannik freaking hansen Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Yeah, Rinne is injured but Hendricks is an overpriced 4th liner. Weird trade. Incoming swap for a goalie involving Sam Ganger, maybe? Or maybe we're giving MacT too much credit and they are beginning they're race to the bottom with Buffalo.

TOMapleLaughs Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Can't believe a plug like Hendricks got a 4yr deal. Nashville wins this trade easily. Actually, Dubnyk does, as he now gets to play behind a defense. Potentially a career-saving move for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PlayStation Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 So Bryz is the number one? What if he leaves? I swear if they end up getting McDavid... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goblix Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Dubynk leaving means they are going for a goalie, trade imminent ? Right I forgot they had bryzgalov haha, they can't be comfortable with him in net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragon4401 Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Yeah, Rinne is injured but Hendricks is an overpriced 4th liner. Weird trade. Incoming swap for a goalie involving Sam Ganger, maybe? Have to be a lot more then Ganger to get a top goalie...and even then their issue is defence so any goalie going to look bad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOMapleLaughs Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Prelude to MacT dealing for a big-name goalie? Miller? Cam Ward? Both have NTC's though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lui's Knob Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 If this is what a goalie is worth then what does luongo get in a deal if any? Yikes. Edmonton gives up a young goalie who struggled for an overpaid 4th liner??? Makes little sense and was like dealin just for a deal. MacT must be losing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRussianRocket. Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 So Bryz is the number one? What if he leaves? I swear if they end up getting McDavid... McDavid is next years draft isn't he? Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought he's not in this years? Anyways, random trade. Doesn't really make sense for both teams.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Edmonton's insurance policy is gone with Dubs now. Nashville wins the deal but still with Rinne at 7 mil, and now Dubs with 3.5 mil...thats a lot of money locked up for the goaltending position. Edmonton gains a good character player in Hendricks, but with a cap hit around 1.85 for a fourth liner is crazy dumb. This trade really makes no sense for either team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
