  1. Oilers absolutely killed it. No over pay, filled out the entire forward corps in a single day.

  2. Darren Dreger said that other teams offered Henrique more money, but he left it on the table to come back to Edmonton

  3. Still need to add a Goalie. Skinner is not the solution and the back up is AHL level at best

  4. Got to admit making it to the finals has definitely opened doors! Henrique, Jeff Skinner and Arvidsson should definitely add great depth. Sorry to see Foegle go but skinner canā€™t be anything but an upgrade as long as he stays healthy. And Janmark is solid as well.

  5. Man Iā€™m sooooo stoked that that Henrique signed with the Oilers!!! He was contributing as soon as he came to the club!! Huge goals in the playoffs as well!!

  6. Wow.. I was expecting Henrique was moving on from Oilers. Now Oilers have 2 top 6 forward and 3rd C. the forward is pretty much set now.

  7. Wow! Initially I was nervous not having a GM! No need for that feeling! What a day! Henrique, Brown and Janmark signed for our third line, what does our fourth line look like? Perry, McLeod, Ryan? What about Holloway? We need to make some trades for picks. Ceci, McLeod, Kulak? I think we have to move Kulak and Ceci. With today we have 8 dmen and 14 forwards. Not a fan of the Perry signing and at that money and sucks that we couldnā€™t keep Vinny. Kane also has to be traded or go on LTIR.

  8. I think everyone knows what the goal for the Oilers is next season and smart players who signed with the Oilers today know what's up!!

  9. Oilers current lines right now if Holloway and broberg resign would be as follows

    Nuge McDavid Hyman
    Skinner drai arvidson
    Janmark Henrique brown
    Holloway McLeod Kane

    Ekholm bouch
    Nurse broberg
    Kulak ceci/stetcher/carrick/josh brown

    Skinner
    Picard
    Delia

    Absolutely nuts roster right there.

  10. Buffalo fan here. $3 million is about right for 1 year of Skinner. Henrique probably worth more. Brind'Amour in Carolina called Skinner "fundamentally un-coachable." Frustrating player – likes to skate and shoot. will look like a star if he plays with top line. Will disappear if he's not. Will not play defense to save his life.

  11. Janmark is the man! Dollar for dollar our best player. Sign Broberg to lock down another one of our Swede Brothers. Oilers going to blow up even more in Sweden.

  12. As a huge oilers fan, Wow what a day of signings! I wanted to keep Henrique, Janmark, and Brown!!! What a great feeling!!! After going to the Stanley cup finals! I'm so happy they kept almost all the same roster from the finals and late in the season and playoffs!!!! and also signed Arvidsson and Jeff Skinner Wow what a great day since the finals! LETS GO OILERS!!!!!

  13. Itā€™s too bad we signed Nurse to that dumpster fire of a contract, that is Brobergā€™s spot! Nurse for a decent RHD would be perfect, but no one wants that contractā€¦

  14. Spoke to a hardcore Sabres fan, Skinner is a good finisher but is terrible on defense, part of the reason why he was bought out. Hopefully he can learn, he will have to.

  15. Looks like trades coming up. Ceci for sure, as money out in exchange for a pick, since they got Stecher as a 7d and Kemp coming up. Kulak is paid less and is a good playoff performer (except for that last goal!). Maybe McLeod out for a pick too, which would make them the oldest in the league for sure. They need Kane, hope he can find his form of 2 yrs ago. They lack toughness on top of that, so Carrick instead of Perry woulda suited me fine. Perry's experience is great, but it has to make a noticeable difference on the ice. And, the top two left D look like Ekholm and Broberg, so…If they're stuck with a 9.25m 3rd D, he HAS to take on the role of enforcer as well.
