But there is a post up now since this seems to be gathering steam. Unfortunately I have to step out for a bit!

Tencer’s twitter says maybe… Lowetide even made a post about it already. It’s been on Oilers Nation for a while now, but I thought that Wayne Gretz was only joking.

As per Tencer’s twitter: “Oilers have not signed Comrie but I’m led to believe that it’s not out of the realm of possibility.”

I didn’t expect much more though.

Horpensky… very well said. And I think the Murray conference is going on now, if I’m not mistaken. I thought I saw somewhere that it was at 3:30 EST. (1:30 here)

Instead he left more questions unanswered.

So he considers himself a team player, yet he wants a trade because he’s on the second PP unit even though the team started winning. Also he hasn’t scored 50 goals in a while, so he thinks his role is diminishing? How about trying a little harder? Being a 50 goal scorer doesn’t get handed to you. You think playing with Joe Thornton instead of Spezza will automatically make you a 50 goal scorer again?

Is Brian Murray going to hold a conference? When is that going down?
