Apparently Mike Green is now an Oiler. Ryan Whitney + going to the Caps. Works for me
Not confirmed yet though.
Edit. Seems I’ve fallen for a fake Twitter account again lol.
Oh jesus. lol
I heard about this… check Twitter followers… look at their tweets (if you look, this guy is clearly a fake.. ex: calling gene principe a fucking idiot).
Be smart!
That would have been a nice deal though if Green wasn’t so severely overpaid.
Martin Gernat signs three-year entry-level contract with Oilers
Yah, people were getting antsy about that one. I wasn’t too worried. Then again, I’m not as big a Gernat fan as some in Oil Country. Not that I think he’ll be bad or anything.. just see him a little further down our depth chart. As I have always said though.. I like my defenseman to be able to defend.
Oilers twitter: Ryan Nugent-Hopkins will fly to Cleveland today to have his shoulder examined. Surgery is likely, will miss remainder of season.
Why did they wait so long to have this looked at? Souray was right. This team is absolutely incompetent with it’s handling of injured players. Sigh……
The Oilers also fired their entire training staff since Souray was here. I think we’ve also seen this before where a team felt that no more damage could likely be done to a player, and they play through it. Not to give the Oilers a free pass or anything. They could have pulled the plug a little sooner, but I think when we were hanging in a playoff spot, the temptation to keep him around would have been quite strong.
At any rate, I’m sure the Oilers aren’t exactly free of any blame, but just not sure all the details. If the Oilers are pushing players too hard, I suppose it’s possible it could be from all the way up the chain to that guy who would play through broken ribs, among other injuries.
So Yak wasn’t even nominated for the Calder even though he held the scoring lead? I figured he’d probably lose to Gallagher eventually but… Seriously???
Good luck to the Barons in the AHL Western Conference Finals !!! That is a team that is firing on all cylinders right now. This is the Barons 2nd consecutive trip to the 3rd round of the AHL playoffs and Todd Nelson is making a compelling case for a job opportunity in the big leagues. I would like to see him brought up to the Oilers as an assistant coach before some other team snatches him up. His team actually improved post NHL lockout.
