X-PatLostInEdm Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Jeez...moving Ference...really? Just unreal. Keep Nikitin until trade day. Keep Ference this year at least. Couldn't fathom how that deal would help the oilers with already still questionable defense Ference on the block? This sounds like a job for SpiderMabel!

Ilya Mikheyev Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Getting rid of Ference seems silly. They won't get much of a return, and the team needs SOME KIND of consistency if they want to build anything. Flipping coaches and captains doesn't seem like a good way to develop a dressing room to me. Also, Oilers don't need the cap space, just the roster space, so the Oilers could retain part of Niktin's final year no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TO VAN: Justin Schultz TO EDM: Luca Sbisa + Shinkaruk + 2nd round pick Edler - Tanev Hamhuis - Schultz Barktowski - Weber Corrado Hutton Wouldn't do it. Schultz had his chance to come here, but he chose Edmonton instead because they were willing to rush him to the NHL, and now his development is screwed because of that choice. We already have a few project players, we don't need another one, especially not a defenseman who can't play defense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DefCon1 Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 Chicago would probably have more interest in Schultz. Defensemen Edmonton should move, in order: Fayne Ference Nikitin Schultz Isn't that their top 4? Plus Schultz and Fayne are probably their better d-man aside from Nurse. Ference and Nikita is probably their worst D-men. Edmonton's D ranking: Schultz Klefbom Fayne . . . Nikita Ference I think they will be desperate to move Nikitin and Ference and at this point I wouldn't even trade Sbisa for Ference. Sbisa was better than both from the games I've watched and Sbisa is a liability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TO VAN: Justin Schultz TO EDM: Luca Sbisa + Shinkaruk + 2nd round pick Edler - Tanev Hamhuis - Schultz Barktowski - Weber Corrado Hutton At this point, I rather have Hutton on the top 4 instead of Schultz. Schultz is like Weber, so why not trade Weber and Vey and get Justin Schultz. But I agree with the other posters that Schultz seems screwed in terms of development thanks to his greediness of choosing a crappy team to go to so he could start in NHL right away and get paid. Vancouver would not be able to afford the minutes he wants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TO VAN: Justin Schultz TO EDM: Luca Sbisa + Shinkaruk + 2nd round pick Edler - Tanev Hamhuis - Schultz Barktowski - Weber Corrado Hutton Just what we need another over rated dman that doesn't hit or clear the front of the net. Oh yeah and didn't want to come here. And we give up a 1st rounder a 2nd rounder and a top 4 d-man for him. Jim Benning is that you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeslerPlaysLikeACanadian Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 I actually think they are stupid to trade him they need his leadership now to mentor the young guys and provide a steady presence on the backend. Should he mentor them on how to play sub-AHL hockey? Captain pressbox? Maybe he should tell them about when his finger slipped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 No like this http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/spider-mable-edmonton-oilers-rescue-andrew-ference-zoo-rescue-mayor-don-iveson-childrens-wish-foundation/ or this http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/oilers-captain-andrew-ference-keeps-putting-community-fitness-first/article26138189/ Yeah, cause there's no way his team forced him to do that to try to clean up his image. All the kids learn from this clown is how to deliver cheapshots on the ice while acting like classless punks. Ferrence is a disgrace to the sport and the OIlers should be embarrassed to have a scumbag like him in a leadership position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
