Edit. Never seen the last part. Guess it’s official! Not sure I like it.
I really don’t understand that trade. More depth for the playoff run I guess. There’s a pile of experience there though.

This is good? Three goals, 8 assists in 48 games this season with a -32 +/-.

I don’t know who he is but his stats aren’t very impressive.

Veteran PP guy. Been around a long time with Washington and Detroit. Couple of 70+ point seasons in his prime. R hand shot from the point which they can use on the PP.

Got him for nothing. Cheap rental.

Might free up a Benning or Larson ++ trade for a forward. Need one of those REAL bad.

Khaira is junk. He and Chaisson both. Need Kassian back with a new RW for McDavid.

Bench Kneel with a hangnail for the rest of the year and deny the Flames the draft pick.

I’m not the only one I see. Both those guys could be gone but I’m hoping p Russell. Not much of a player. Green is a free pickup. Brodziak is not going to do anything anymore

Russell can just go back to the minors. He's holding a spot on the bingo card. Doesnt generate anything but doesnt hurt the team either. Hustles. Bangs a bit. Smart. Just no talent. Lol.

I used to be a big Mike Green fan....about 10 years ago.

Giving up Brodziak and a "conditional" pick, and DET retains 50% of his salary, so he was basically free, and he's a UFA, so his contract is off the books at the end of the season. I can't see the harm. The upside if he sticks around is a veteran guy that's played high pressure minutes and move the puck. That might be VERY valuable depending on how bad Klefbom's injury really is or the nature of it going forward this season even when he does return.

On the dare to dream side, it allows them to package up Larsson, or Russell, or Benning, etc... for a bonafide winger to play with McDavid. Gagner and Chaisson are valuable bottom 6 role players, but watching them on the first line is painful.

Great pickup. He will for sure be with McD. I bet we do a couple more before the deadline. Chaisson is not a first line player so I hope they figure that out. Either is Neal.

You are right. Get kassian back and then Chaisson and Neal with be third and 4th line fits. Me thinks we have to deal out P Russell and Khaira. Draft picks would be awesome. Let’s hope 🙏

Anthanasiou got 30 goals in 76 games last year playing with Larkin. Imagine what he might be able to do with McDavid.

I give Holland a B- for his trades today and upgrade it to an A for finding a way to do what he did today with what Chia had left him.

I would think most Oiler's fans have to like those trades...

Whats the lineup look like when everybody is back:

Athanasiou-McDavid-Kassian
RNH-Draisaitl-Yamamoto
Ennis-Sheahan-Archibald

Klefbom-Dear
Nurse-Larsson
Benning-Green

Smith
Koskinen

That looks pretty good. Might give Vegas a run for 1st.

Sure is. Much more fun as a buyer rather than a seller.

I see Joel Persson traded to ducks for G Angus Redmond and conditional 7th rounder.

Doubt they'd break up Nurse-bear. Green with Kbom more likely.

Could see Benning be on the outside looking in. Benning hasn’t been the same since the concussions.

You are right. I do like that jones. He is such a smart DMan and that’s one player they better hang on to. He’s better than Benning and Nurse
