It will be loner than 2-3 years.
Regardless, sucks see all these other teams that will be ready to pass us. Ducks are going to have McTavish, Zegras and one of Bedard/Fantilli/Carlsson as their top 3 centres.
Aquilini should’ve listened, threw away an entire decade.
Another one might go to waste here, I’ll be looking forward to when Johnson and Bedard become UFA’s towards the end of the decade.
Oilers are middle of the pack because they handcuff themselves with guys like Nurse. Nurse and Barrie .
They are like the Canucks. Don’t care about defence. Hope they trade for Kane as well, so they don’t address their real problem.
Does JR and Bettman have a good relationship. Maybe he can rig this one in our favour. Would hate to see Bedard go to the Ducks, would be a super team out there.
Best case scenario, trade Bo, move out other guys like Boeser or Garland. Draft one of the centres going in the top 3. I’d be happy with either one of Fantilli or Carlsson.
