PhillipBlunt Posted November 5, 2018 Share Posted November 5, 2018 Kassian would be a welcome re-addition to the team. He's in the best shape of his life, physically, mentally, and emotionally. Green could be the coach to give him a right opportunity with the right motivation. He'd instantly beef up the forward corps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same poster has us trading EP and a pick to TML for Nylander. Just bored or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering that he's already gone through 1 Jack Adam winning coach who won the Presidents Trophy twice (AV), a 2-times Coach of the Year winner and Stanley Cup winner (Torts), a coach with very good minor league credentials (WD), and a coach who has also good AHL credentials plus lots of success as head coach and assistant (Todd McLellan)..... all with different styles of player from defensive, to offensive, to grinding, etc. Yet Kassian still can't seem to put it together, yet he believes yet another fresh start is what's needed for his career? Sorry, I don't think a roster spot on the Canucks should be wasted on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder, though, if the Coils are allowing his agent to talk to other teams, that they would likely have already offered him out. If they really don't think they can move him, we should see him on the waiver wire in a few weeks. yes - probably the case - that they looked at dealing him and then gave his agent the go-ahead to see if they could manage to find one. wouldn't be surprised at all if he winds up on waivers. once you get to this point, team and player tend to wind up going their own way - and with the volume of quality depth forwards out there nowadays, it's hard to leverage a 10 minute player like Kassian. Maybe just an impression, but there seems a growing tendency for teams to stick with their own in-house depth forwards, at least to start seasons... I like Zack - think he has a certain impact in a lineup - but there's probably a decent chance he'd clear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammertime Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I'd take a chance on Kass doubt JB would. I think Edm would have to make a sweet deal something like Gagner 50% retained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Borvat Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 Kassian seems to end up being at minimum a distraction wherever he goes - or worse. Not interested in the risk of what his presence will do in the locker room for what he brings. Looks like the other teams are giving the Oilers permission to keep him.

SingleThorn Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 I know it's boring, but posters should always indicate 'sarcasm'. It isn't as obvious as the poster might think. This was obviously a poster that was having a bad day, yet quite a few took his sarcasm as a serious thought. On 11/5/2018 at 1:01 PM, Ronaldoescobar said: Kassian for JV + 2nd?
