We'd still have $31 Million left to use. I definitely see it. But you have to give up the player which impacts is trying to win. 9 means nothing to Benning if he doesn't believe he'll be there to reap the benefits. Zacha for 9 (take Loui back if necessary even)? What about wood + nyi 1st for #9 and kole lind? Something like that. Also, supposedly, Schmidt wants out. That's the play for us, I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't have a ton of interest in 41. Woo + Loui for vukojevic? I don't know how woo has progressed, truthfully. I'd do whatever I can to get to 9 though given we have the isles first. Dropping 10 or so spots in this draft for some immediate help (whether it's a player, salary cap relief via Loui) should be a major interest to Benning If you got the draft to break right (someone jumping the line for wallstedt), I'm not so sure someone like Johnson isn't there at 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something more along those lines. Not sure Loui alone gets it done, but there should definitely be something workable in there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure Loui alone gets it done, but there should definitely be something workable in there Loui and Beagle might do it. Beagle's contract drops to a 5 team NTC next year so he might waive if we're on it. That's $9 Million in space. Could take Holtby as well, depending on how they feel about him. He's been pretty, pretty bad lately and has another year at $4.3 Million (and we need a #2 so there's a spot for him). His contract is only a 4 team NTC. I would definitely explore the Schmidt angle but he's turning 30 with 4 more years at $5.95 Million AAV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like Schmidt would appeal to us specifically just because I have to believe he'd be cheap as hell. Maybe not quite joey Anderson cheap, but not far off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, that Kulikov pick is trending to be a 4th rounder unless the Oilers can rattle off 4 of the next 5. lol Oilers blow a 4-1 3rd period lead and lose 5-4 in OT to go down 3-0. 4th rounder for Kulikov, it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, Quest for Stanley is 100% Brett Seney or someone related to him/knows him, right? lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
