I dont think Hendricks was moved? They just didnt resign him and the Jets did. Correct me if i am wrong?

Oilers dont have one good Rah Rah guy in the room currently. The McDavid captaincy should have never happened...

Yes Hendricks was not re-signed. Oilers chose not to keep him which resulted in his signing with the Jets. Nothing in return except the lost leadership in the dressing room and example of work ethic on and off the ice.

Every guy is a "Rah Rah" guy when you're winning.

I guess Jonathan Toews should never have been captain of the Hawks because he's not a "Rah Rah" guy either?

Too bad this roster can’t and won’t win. Lucic should be that voice in the room but unfortunately he’s the last guy you want your players to look up to...

All I know is these college drafted players can play hockey and usually jump right in.

As far as Hamilton trade. I make that trade everyday, Flames added depth at the cost of very little. Hanifin and Dougie look like they could be a wash, Lindholm the benefit. Ferland is a great character guy and one of my favorites but a ufa in 1 year and looking to make big $ off Topline prowess. Fox was not signing anyway,too much depth on that blueline for him to feel comfortable.
