Krebs was a part of a weak draft though

They were trying to bring Lindy in as an assistant coach weren’t they? So glad he negotiated all that power before joining on

Not Jokiharju? Sending back Greenway would at least simplify the roster shuffle

Are there fancy stats that are good for farabee? Only thing I’m seeing is overpaid high draft pedigree who never showed up, but likely put into situations well over his head that isn’t his fault. My interest would remain with a low acquisition cost since most teams can’t even absorb that contract even if they wanted to

It’s eeringly similar. Guy they put a lot of pressure onto because they are a bad team gets major surgery (literally the same as Eichel) and has a bunch of issues returning from it and just gets on the bad side of the front office and new coaches. Probably just needs a reset button plus he’d go from being the guy to being a 2nd liner down the depth chart

Yeah been looking at this one. Farabee had Eichels disk surgery and then got off on a bad start with Torts trying to recover from it. Guy seems like a perimeter shooter, not sure why the target Lindy will hate that; but given Krebs is all we’d give up I can believe we have a better chance at fixing his career than Krebs will. He really needs time to recover from that surgery, he wasn’t some freak of nature bodybuilder like Eichel was. we have the cap space to take him, which is why he’d be available for cheap. Krebs is a throwaway at this point.

Wahlberg is an interesting target but he’s definitely an area of surplus

He was a positive +\- player who played with bad linemates and tried to shutdown things away from all the talent on his team. He didn’t allow a goal against on the PK the entire playoffs Oilers fans are just looking for outs

These rumored deals are cheaper than I thought we’d get stuck with. No brainer from me. Yes those teams want quantity over quality so it can work. I thought we’d be done until trade deadline, but if these are on the table I’ll keep refreshing! Our team is full of snipers. Can use a playmaker Bigger question is whether Lindy wants his style

lol that trade would cause chaos here

Owning the land and leasing it out is a thing

What about his time in Minny? The Sabres system was slow as molasses last year

Isn’t greenway fast for his size? I can understand the sentiment but I don’t see Greenway as an outlier like a Reeves of the world

Savoie was a castoff. He was being included in every trade proposal this summer. It’s obvious he didn’t fit Lindy’s profile even if he turns out as an NHLer. We have an identity now. Fast. Krebs is a goner.

Kulich ain’t making it

I can see why Necas is being rumored now. That's a trait not comparable to Skinmer

Joki is making the same as Ceci so I don’t see anything there

Lindy Ruff teams are all about coming out fast and hard and getting an early lead then defending the Alamo until you reach the finish line. Complete opposite of our team last year who regularly didn’t show up until the 2nd or 3rd period. Both styles can be frustrating in their own light. At least the players we acquired can all handle defending the Alamo because nobody on our old roster could

He doesn’t have that much value. At least he’s better than Nylander

You literally quoted things after your post lol

Only one negative post that is quoting the Oilers boards and Hfboards

We a fast team now.

Great deal. Savoie was a bust anyway. McLeod is 25yo

Filling Mittelstadt hole is going to be much easier

He might’ve sneaked in front but he didn’t contest it and cause chaos. Totally different in effect
