  1. Who was the idiot who acquired Skinner with a plus minus of – 140. If it helps to get rid of Kane, take him off LTIR and find someone to replace. Or is it beneficial to get another player while Kane is on LTIR?

  2. Why after all these years did Oilers drop Nurse and not keep Bouchard with Nurse? I never understood why they put Ekholm and Bouchard together. Bouchard and Nurse were awesome together.

  3. Sounding more and more that Kane will NOT be available until playoffs. Oilers will be using Kanes cap. I can see 1 or 2 more moves. Hopefully, one is a goalie even though those options are getting slim

  4. I will miss him, but Grier has been making calculated moves for picks and younger additions/picks; trading for players who are having down seasons, displaying their capabilities, and selling them for more than what we acquired them for. Grier FTW

  5. Dedicated Sharks fan here:

    – Grier actually got Walman not for future considerations, but for taking DET's 2nd rounnd pick in 2024 (Leo Sahlin Wallenius)
    – Walman has not played the majority of the season on the right side — he plays LD mostly.
    – Keep expectations steady — Walman was great the first half of the season but really tapered down this last 3rd quarter of the season.

  6. This makes sense. Send Klingberg on waivers.
    D should be bolstered, Bouchard cant continue to be as bad. A bit more speed in the D will help.
    Best of luck in the playoffs from a Pred

  7. I like that Jake Walman is becoming "Oilman")) 😜Now we have Hyman, Walman, and I wouldn't mind seeing another "man" – Swayman as "Oilman"🤪
