Kobayashi Maru Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 We should claim him just for fun. Put one to the Oilers since we can’t do that on the ice. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Could easily see Toronto claiming him. Not sure what Edmonton is thinking in finally getting an NHL blueliner and then sending him to the AHL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sophomore Jinx Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 (edited) Decent career for Demers, especially for a 7th rounder. Averaged 25 points a season, 700 games, not too shabby. I always liked the player, even now at 34. Edited December 18, 2022 by Sophomore Jinx 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claiming old balls Jason Demers is NHL quality and saying Nils Lundkvist isn’t is exactly why it’s crazy anyone takes you seriously. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not an all-star, but he';s still an instant upgrade over the AHL trash that Edmonton has on their right side. Lundkvist has proven to be a complete liability in his own zone and has shown no sign of being capable of learning how to solve that. He's another Pouliot/Larsen/Barrie/Rielly/Bartkowski, none of whom belong on an NHL roster for any reason. No room in the NHL for a defenceman who can't play defence. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure what Lundkvist did to have you be this ignorantly sour towards him but everything you have said about him over the last day is just flatout wrong and anyone without some weird agenda they’re pushing can see that.

I've seen him play at multiple levels. At no point did his play in his own zone even approach an acceptable standard. Not everyone is going to pretend to respect defencemen who refuse to play defence. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s even better is years back I believe Demers had us in his no trade list and Benning was trying to get him. So it would be claiming a guy that doesn’t want to be here and sticking it to the Oilers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odjick29willkillyou Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Could Smith be a much-cheaper alternative at C if we are able to trade Bo? At this point I do not see anyone taking on JT's contract which makes Bo even more expendable. I hate that it has come to this, but with this management (or lack thereof) this is where we be. I am also curious if Bo has more value now as a potential rental since a team would have him longer than if at the deadline. Like, would a team like Colorado be willing to pay more now given their health situation than a team like NYI who most likely would want Bo at the deadline. I definitely do not want Bo to go in favor of JT, but if that is our situation we might as well flip him when his value is at its highest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
