OccamsRazor Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I was thinking Jeff Skinner who has had couple bad yearsI'd rather keep Schenn and sign a cheap option like Jiri Tlusty for an upgrade/ shot at filling the LW void... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Schenn looked good on Couturier's wing, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intheslot Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I'd send the Schenn's and G to the Oil.... What do you think they send back ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FD19372 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I'd send the Schenn's and G to the Oil.... What do you think they send back ??? Eberle, a 3rd and the rights to McDavid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mountain Man Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 The Oilers have too many centers already.... the Leafs need centers Kadri maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruxpin Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 What has Schenn done that says natural center? Or natural anything, for that matter. And yes, @brelic,i agree he looked as good or better on Coots wing as anywhere else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claude Monet Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 He played very well down the stretch at RIGHT wing . A position he never played but is quoted as really enjoying it. His points say a lot.Anyone would be crazy not to keep him and play him on the right to start next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbulb Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 The Oilers have too many centers already.... the Leafs need centers Kadri maybe? 1) The Oilers don't really have too many centers. Draisitl will probably be in the AHL next year, so that leaves RNH, Boyd Gordon, and the rookie Mcdavid. 2) I would HATE to have Kadri on this team. We need MORE leadership, MORE determination, not an immature player like Kadri. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mountain Man Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 You are forgetting that they used Derek Roy at center for half the year and he was not bad.... Gordon is only good at faceoffs unfortunately. Hopefully they resign Roy until these kids are ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could unload Mac and VLC's contracts, would we be crazy to give them Schenn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyercanuck Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 @King Knut Dump Schenn for nothing? No thanks. VLC can be bought out, at worst, after next season. We aren't contending next year so he doesn't matter. MacDud, we're likely stuck with. But I've seen worse contracts moved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you imagine McDonagh on the Habs blueline??? That was a colossal mistake, and I have no idea why they helped the Rangers out of that albatross.

BobbyClarkeFan16 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 I'm going to be an optimist here with regards to MacDonald and think that once a new coach is brought in, he'll be alright. I'm sure playing under that crap can coach in Berube didn't help matters. I think a new coach will come in, provide MacDonald with a specific role of what's to be expected of him and he'll be that decent player he was before the big contract. As for Schenn, yeah, I say keep him on the right side and let him, Coots and whoever plays the left side develop some chemistry. With him, Simmonds, Voracek and Read all playing the right side, there's going to be a log jam and something tells me someone is going to get moved in order to add a left winger.

OccamsRazor Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 something tells me someone is going to get moved in order to add a left winger.For some reason i feel that way addition by subtraction so to speak.I also feel someone under contract for next year on the blueline will be moved. MDZ still needs to be signed but regardless someone back there will be gone if for no other reason to free up money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radoran Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 he'll be that decent player he was before the big contract. He was "fair to middling". At the time I compared him to, but he's not now and probably won't ever be Kris Russell from Calgary. He'll never be worth that contract. Ever. Scotty Bowman 15 years ago couldn't make a silk purse out of this sow's ear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would try to move him at all costs... In a few years when the kids are in the lineup this dolt will still be skating in a Flyers uniform - I want him nowhere near our prospects.

briere48 Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 i see the schenns being traded for a first line lw scorer or a defender because we have too many two way forwards on this team like white, courturier, laughton, i dont see any of them being traded since they play really well for this team. luke schenn hasnt played well, he's terrible, braylon is very inconsistent, he can show up some games and other games he wont show up and he doesnt fit the first line or second line. depending on what is available in free agency, draft, trading block, i still see the schenns being on the way out for a defender or first line lw scorer.

I guess if Braylon is inconsistent then the trade is justified. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
