Wouldn’t be surprised if Podz had a trade request in (with our Russian exodus) and Allvin facilitated him getting a better opportunity elsewhere. Yes, good points, there are so many variables that we're not privy too, so I don't worry about things out of my control, and let the big boys and girls do the necessary work, while I remain a rabid life long fan, who will continue to wait for the holy grail to come to Vancity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turned out Granlund was only a fringe NHL player and Shink was AHLer lifer haha 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am at least giving you a look of disappointment, I might even shake my head a little, and mutter 'tut tut tut' under my breath. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilentSam Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 21 minutes ago, qwijjibo said: No. They Oilers have to match and keep him for a year or let him go. And he can't be traded before the decision is announced. well that was a missed opportunity then . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elias Pettersson Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 27 minutes ago, SilentSam said: But nobody has matched or signed that offer sheet ? The offer can be there , but he can be offered another ? Y/ N? .. and it doesn't have to be the same value? IF (hypothetically ) the Podz deal was for a 4th and the ability to talk to Broberg and his Camp while he sits on the Offer sheet .. that’s possible ? Isn’t it ? I just checked and it looks like Broberg has signed the offer sheet. Which means Edmonton has two options. They can match it or let him walk and take the compensation. Edmonton isn’t allowed to trade him anymore unfortunately. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll see both packaged with a 3rd round pick to montreal for future considerations. Oilers will match both broberg and holloway. Source? If Montreal loved Podkolzin they could have offered the 4th to get him. And the only way they take Ceci is if Edmonton is adding their 26 1st to him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 40 minutes ago, Westcoasting said: One thing I see mentioned is how we are helping out Edm. I guess I just don’t get it how this player helps them out. He looked terrible n the Canucks last year. My view is this: Edm now walks from Holloway owed over Double Pod cap hit & they get a 3rd rd pick in return vs only giving a 4th for a former 10th overall guy in Pod. Why didn't Alvin shop Pod to an eastern team who likes Russians like Washington, Pit, Carolina, NYR etc... Why did he make this trade before EDM had to make decisions about Broberg and Holloway. Should've stayed in Sweden longer and kept your phone on silent! Many dont like HFBoards, but all the Pit fans on there laughed and warned us about Rutherford being too aggressive and giving up picks and young players...this is a CLASSIC example and to send him to a division rival you just lost too in the playoffs...Mind fucking Blowing!

Wing Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 I wonder about the timing of this move tho. You'd think it had to be Oilers reaching out to the rest of NHL about availability of low cost wingers to replace Holloway? As someone here pointed out, it might very well be Pods asking for a change to get more opportunities, seeing the signings we made. Just didn't like that is Edmonton cause it seems we helped them out more than the other around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We both know Petey is much smarter than Podz, and that the Alien would see him coming and make him look foolish...and besides, next shift Sherwood or Joshua, or a slew of others on our roster would send him like a whirly-bird into the rafters if he did Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second reaction, after a few moments of letting it settle into my brain remains WTF. In the absence of the Canucks being involved in the Oilers trading someone to make room for the offer sheets this is certainly a WTF moment. Having Podz try to prove himself is more valuable than a 4th round imo. If he doesn't then I'd rather trade him to Carolina for a 5th.
