I would agree if I felt our core is a trade or two away from being competitive, but I don’t. I feel we still need needle movers. This summer shouldn’t be the summer we go for it.

But there are always "fans" who will accuse me of being disingenuous, because their goal is to be as negative as possible and find it annoying when others want to actual be happy about their team. Theres always negative nancys, its a great trade and im so excited 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Swedes don’t only bond with other Swedes but we saw the bond Petey had with Marky. OEL can now be that older mentor to Petey. He was the captain in Arizona for a reason. This. Plus I believe he’s close with the Sedins as well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CR7 Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 I think this trade was great, for all those that don't like it I do understand. But if those that don't like it are also the ones that were pissed with loui, rous and beags being on the roster... maybe time to be a kraken fan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KirkSave Posted July 24, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 24, 2021 The additions and subtractions JB has made to our roster will ensure we will be a fast, skilled, very determined, puck pursuit team. Let's not forget the Russian bull dog is on his way too!! 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nergish Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 (edited) I know the OEL and Garland salaries are a wash with our deadweight, but don’t you guys feel lighter without Loui, Beagle, Roussel? Chance to completely revamp the bottom 6. Edited July 24, 2021 by nergish 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, he's fallen off a bit but he still carries that--that's good for Petey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good times. Now all the analytics folks ragging on OEL as if Arizona had ever come close to giving OEL a decent cast of players to work with. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would have been a whole lit cheaper to drive Petey to Ikea before and after every game if he needed to feel at home. These are grown ass men who get millions to play a game…how much more pampering do we think they need. Petey never said he needed a Swedish buddy, he just need decent players to work with. Lets hope the cap goes way up cause that $7m+ cap hit will feel like groundhog day in the not too distant future. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell that to Bo, Miller, etc. The current roster has to be excited about these additions over an unknown commodity that would not have a true impact on the club for years. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
