Popular Post Devron Posted July 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2021 (edited) I was making fun of the OEL trade rumour recently. Actually didnt believe it would happen. LE is gone! It’s a dream come true for me today. Garland is better and younger then any FA winger on the market. Anyone dissing this trade. Doesn’t like OEL contract whatever you’ve probably never paid attention to his play. Garland is the real gem here though.

I actually posted that before I saw any news on the trade. It was a prediction. I have no real news of any salary retention. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overpaid by the usual Jim Million, but only one guy this time rather than 4 guys overpaid by the Jim Million (Sutter's out too). He's not Loui. I think we're all jaded by the high/long contracts that Jim has signed rather than by players themselves. OEL will surprise in a good way. I've been to a few Arizona games (not last year obviously) while vacationing down there and his biggest issue is that he had nobody to pass to. Agreed hopefully having more talent around him will increase his production and play nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could be the stud defenseman we have needed since Jovo.... he could also suck in a few short years. Time will tell. At least he wont be sitting on the taxi squad anytime soon. We could compete for a cup next year if we refine the roster a bit more and add a good free agent. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
48MPHSlapShot Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 How does the money situation work out? Assuming we sign Garland, aren't we even more capped out than we were before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timberz21 Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Honestly, a little no retention on OEL. However, considering that Hughes and Petey will most likely sign a friendlier deal than if there wasn't covid and flat cap....and considering that the economy should bounce back and boom eventually....cap might rise exponentially in the nex 3-5 years. If lock long-term, I don't think caphit of 8.25 might be as bad in the later years. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post -SN- Posted July 23, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 23, 2021 So, I have to say I don't like this. We've essentially extended an awful contract, except now it's worse. We don't have a first round pick, again, and we're running dry on prospects. For everyone saying Gillis left us with the cupboards empty, Benning is doing the same. 2 1 1 2 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24K PureCool Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Jim better have a Schmidt trade.for a first rounder in his pocket! I for one ain't that high on the 9th overall but we need a first rounder to help replenish the cupboard. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
