Looks like the strategy in Edmonton is to draft high again this year, cause it worked so well in the past :mellow:

well we all know

they are very experienced at fully developing high draft pics

This must be the blaze of glory Chiarelli's going out in before he quits. Or gets fired, whichever comes first. 

Chia' is definitely 'blazin' something to make this horrible trade lol maybe he has some kind of personal vendetta against McJesus

Eberle turned into Strome.

Strome turned into Spooner.

Spooner turned into someone that can't even be included as a cap dump in a trade.

Soon he will become a paper clip and the 'turning a paper clip into a house' legend will be complete but backwards.

So using Chiarelli Math  Eberle = 0 ?

Decent gamble trade. 

Manning has 3+ NHL seasons under his belt.

Had a GOOD year last year.  19 points, plus player.

Just coming into his prime.

Garrison cost them nothing. 1yr min PTO money.

 

Caggiula is crafty.  But small.  Clearly something management didn't like, or that they like more in what they see in Manning.

 

Not sure what all the uproar is around this trade actually.  Young potential asset for something the Oilers need. Mobile D that can put up points.  Have a feeling this is going to be a sleeper huge deal for BOTH teams in the short/mid term.  Caggiula will produce with Toews or Kane.

Just so we're clear.  I REALLY thought Caggiula wa splaying well and was a close buddy of McDavids.

 

How the f*** will Edmonton ever keep that kid?  When his prime years of 28-33 are in front of him, he'll be enjoying them in an American market because NO way Edmonton keeps him with what they've done to his line mates and career thus far

Are we bangin on what might happen 9 years from now? Over Caggiula...

 

Chicago may have ''won'' the trade. But it was a deal Edmonton had to consider. They have Klefbom & Russel out, have never really had Sekera.  And Caggiula has both been injured & a healthy scratch this year. A 3rd liner, who is supposed to be a scorer that more than one coach did not see fit to play with McDavid or Draisaitl on a regular shift in the top 6.

 

Meh.

 

Just Meh! Its a minor deal. Nothing more.
