I agree, I've wondered about Oskar Sundkvist & Nic Dowd. Nothing against any of the 4 on the Oilers but I'd prefer that if only one was dealt it would be Brown. The other 3 have history here & have contributed more imo in just about every metric you might want to mention except speed on the pk. I like Brown's work ethic yet I like the other 3 guys work ethic too. Brown just doesn't move the needle in the right direction imo.
Why not bring up Lane Pedersen as the 4th line center? Internal solutions might already exist in our AHL affiliate except the rhd position imo. Holland has a history of letting young prospect die on the vine so to speak in the minors. Other teams integrate more young prospects into their lineups than we do why is that? Look at Minnesota this year as a example Faber this year & Boldy last year.

Losing Bjucstad caused such a hole in our bottom 6!

Gagner has had limited chances hard to score lots when you get benched for 14/15 games

Pffft. I'll stick with Dolyny T.V.
