Trebreh Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I hope JB trades Eriksson for a 3rd or something without retaining any salary, just to rub in some more salt in the Lames wounds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Ghost Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 It makes some sense based on the needs of both teams but Calgary got hosed if there is no retention or another asset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 12 months his contract will appeal to a team like OTT b/c of the cap hit being far more than the $. They’re probably all free in a yr. If Neal bombs in EDM they likely buy him out and are paying him for 6 years. Could totally work out to CGY’s advantage if they play it right. And: Oilers fans should be hoping for a second coming of McDavid and Neal from the 2018 all-star game. They were fun to watch together. Haha, I love how these bloggers think that they can just dump a player on a team like Ottawa. They couldn't this year, but next year they can? If this is the case, why isn't Louie headed there now? The $ to be paid are small, now that he has received his bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeBossy Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Basically Calgary lost out on bringing back Ferland so they went dumpster diving and found Lucic. Wow!! Just wow haha. Calgary got that much slower just like that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be great if only the NHL made regular season games mean nothing and went to 3 on 3 hockey like they did at the All Star game - this guy is an idiot lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I find it funny that Eriksson can't even be moved but these 2 guys can find new homes no problem, no one wants Eriksson, but hey on CDC "Eriksson is so good defensively", why wouldn't a team want Eriksson if he was that good defensively then? The one argument CDC has tried to use for years(cough cough Oldnews) to defend him, guess what he can't be that good then, NO OTHER TEAMS EVEN WANT HIM 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he complains about his position here, and then JB tries to trade him to play with the best player in the world and LE still says no? Huh what a load of garbage Eriksson is then. Curious where is a link or anything that says LE vetoed this? Can't find one thing on the internet stating this claim...

Huh what a load of garbage Eriksson is then. There is a post somewhere on the Eriksson thread quoting Dan Murphy that he vetoed a trade around the trade deadline to Edmonton. I'm glad we didn't get Lucic though and am very happy with JT Miller and Micheal Ferland instead. Lucic is a tough customer though and not to be taken lightly, he may even turn it around in Calgary.
