    Henrique for 25 cents on the dollar Carrick 50 cents on the dollar. Can't believe Kenny got 75% and 50% retained. Leaves him with a little cap space to try for a defender if he can find a deal.

    Exactly what the Oilers needed in Henrique. plus player on the ducks, against other teams best players/defense pairs ...and now will get easier match ups with teams having to gameplan for McD/draisaitl
    Also helps with the teams lines being a key penalty killer, making for seemless line usage post penalty kill. Vs the makeshift lines they have post penalty kill after they load up with MCD/drai/Hyman ...

      @@martinwest4980we will not win anything until we have a legitimate 1A 1B goalie tandem, love Skinner but he is only in his second year,
      We need another good legit goalie that can give us as good of a chance to win so come playoffs if Skinner has a bad good or 2 we have another legit starter to play. All the best team now days minus Tampa have a 1A 1B goalie system. I know it’s expensive to get a goalie right now but I have been saying this since Talbot left.
      It’s a big part of why we lost to Colorado, Mike Smith not being able to make one or 2 key saves that gave the boys a lead for more then 2 mins, i’m not saying Mike Smith was horrible, but to win a Stanley Cup you need your goalie to win you a couple games, you need your goalie to make saves that he’s not expected to make so that you can keep the lead and keep the momentum, and in the last two years Edmonton has not had that and I’m convinced until they do they’re not winning the cup and the best way to get that is by having a one A1 1B system because your chances of having a hot goalie go up exponentially and then you run that goalie
      And last year too against Vegas, Skinner struggled at times and really did not give Edmonton. Those key saves that you need from your goalie in the playoffs, almost every team that’s ever won a cup, has had a goalie that stole them a game or two throughout the playoffs even more than that in some cases and Edmonton has not had that from any goalie in the last couple years. Last year Skinners in his rookie year he struggling and they have no faith in Campbell to put them in. How can you win a cup with an issue like that on your team and they haven’t fixed it!! Yes, Skinner has played great since the start from hell and I think he’s a great goalie, but he still only in his second year, and Pickard is not a 1A or 1B. If they don’t address it which I can’t see them doing now i don’t see them winning!! Obviously I hope I’m wrong and Skinner can kill it this playoffs but if they don’t win this year this has to be managements biggest priority other then getting Drat signed Like I said I’ve been saying it for years and it keeps getting ignored and it keeps becoming an issue every playoff!!

  • @roximama
    @roximama 9 місяців тому +7

    I dunno if I agree with you about the Oilers defense. Yes, it obviously breaks down sometimes but they all do that. Their problem this year is that the bottom 6 tends to fall apart whenever they see McDavid giving less than 200%. If he's not on fire then no one is. Well, except for Hyman but he's a freakin' machine. lol (Yeah, thanks to the Leafs for not recognizing what you had in that guy. 🙂) I really believe that the problem with the Oilers is psychological because they have the best player in the world and that means the other players naturally and maybe even unconsciously follow him. They have to learn to to get up and lead themselves when he's having an off day instead of just following the leader off the cliff. Or maybe their leader just needs to be more vulnerable and tell them he's having an off day and ask them to step up? I don't know but I do know psychology, especially team psychology, is a big part of winning.

      @orwellknew9112 9 місяців тому +1

      Actually, if you look back at the 2021/2022 playoffs Kane and Draisaitl had more impact than McDavid. Too bad Kane is not what he was before his injuries. He was like a Glenn Anderson type who just went up 3 levels in the playoffs. Like the playoffs were what he was made for. Draisaitl was visibly injured for most of that playoffs. There were times he could barely skate and barely get up after he was hit. Yet he was the highest scoring player of all the teams in those playoffs.
      Since that terrible start to the season, the Oilers have been killing it. They have a lot of confidence and experience coming from behind in the 3’rd period, very similar to the Gretzky era. But being honest, the Oilers are not the only team looking really strong this year. Florida, Boston, the Rangers, Winnipeg and Vancouver all look really strong..and you could add some more teams to that list that are capable of going all the way. There is so much parity that it just depends on who gets hot.

      In a Cap world having 75% and 50% salary retained doesn't come cheap. You pay more for cap retainage than you do the player. They got a $6 mil dollar man for $1.5 mil and Carrick for $425k.
      Leaves them a little over $400k in deadline cap space to play with if they can maybe find a deal for a Dman. Obviously they'd have to move a roster player out for a serious upgrade but if they manage to, those picks got them 3 players.

    As an Oilers fan, I do not understand Ken Holland obsession with Toronto Maple Leafs players. Since 2021 we have basically added 5 of them. Starting with Tyson Berrie, who was good for the Oilers .Now Zach Lyman was a fantastic acquisition. No complaints there. Cody CC has been OK at times. Jack Campbell is basically a good relief playoff goaltender. And Connor Brown is a player that’s not the same player that he was. At least we got a player and Sam carrick that knows his role. And oh yeah, played for the leafs at one point in his career.

      @@BenjaminDaCunha-ys8ty Its not like the Oilers were the only club in on Brown. The fact that he was bonus paid is what teams liked about him. Could Kenny have structured the bonus better? probably but that is water under the bridge. If Brown scores a clutch goal in the playoffs, which I believe he will, that money will be worth every penny.

    Gets them a piece of what they've been needing, scoring depth, but that back line is sooooo sketchy.

    ouch a 1st rounder for Henrique, standard Kenny Holland stuff, trade away all the 1st rounders then have no pipeline. He did it with Detroit and they haven't been to the playoffs in 8 years. Watch out Edmonton, you don't win your next decade will look like Detroit's last ten years.

      It's not a 1st round for Henrique. It's a 1st round (mid 20s or worse of a weak draft) for Henrique and Carrick and 50% off.
      In a Cap world you pay more for capspace than you do a player.

      @SS-iv7wv 9 місяців тому

      whatever floats your boat, giving up a first rounder for Ekhome and now another first for Henrique really is a stretch in my opinion. Look at the Red Wings, Kenny did the same thing with them, that is what the Oil will look like in the future. @@TH-tl6sy

    Oilers can't be done. They have 2 giant holes on the right side (TOP6 F and TOP4 D) and they just gotta fill one of them.

    • @devackroyd
      @devackroyd 9 місяців тому +1

      I don't think the money is going to work to make anything else substantial happen, they have no cap space and moving substantial dollar pieces sacrifices depth. There is not upgrade on Ceci (not to mention that Cody is straight up underrated, a decent player at his cap hit) that is going to be worth it at this point with lots of high end right shot deadline options gone, they would be much better off trading for defensive depth come the playoffs when somebody inevitably gets hurt. Broberg is their 7th D and has hardly played in the NHL, a veteran presence is needed in that spot. Ryan McLeod also had success in the top 6 this year on the right side, I think they will try that, not every hole is going to be filled. That's just a reality.

    • @kimckechnie959
      @kimckechnie959 9 місяців тому +2

      This video is literally about a trade in which they added a top 6 forward. No shade to Steve's opinion, but Henrique is absolutely and obviously an improvement over Janmark in the top 6.
      And while I agree that Ceci is more of a bottom pair D-man on a contender-calibre D-core, calling it a "giant hole" is very melodramatic. You're acting like they're bleeding goals because of inferior defence, but the Oilers are in the top 10 league-wide in goals against per game this season, ahead of teams like Vegas, Dallas and Colorado. It's not unreasonable to think they could win with their current defenders if they play like they have been.

    • @TH-tl6sy
      @TH-tl6sy 9 місяців тому +1

      They have a little over $400k deadline capspace left. They would need to move a roster player out to add a D-man. Kenny might do magic who knows. But do not under estimate Depth. Knights bottom 6 won it for them.
      Pisani on the 3rd line added 14 goals on the 2006 SC run. Oilers don't make the stanley cup finals without Pisani. It was twice as many as Smyth and Horcoff Scored. What kind of Damage does a guy like Henrique do on the 3rd line facing weak competition?
      He's also very capable of playing second line if needed.
      Kane Henrique Nuge. Guys good at the Draw and Nuge is used to playing wing. Both are good Defensively.
      Lots of options for Oilers to mix and match bottom 9.
