It was interesting to hear Stauffer mention 'internal changes are coming'.

It was interesting to hear Stauffer mention 'internal changes are coming'.

Very curious what that means.

All the positives from the past two games were gone today. They were awful. Still scored 4 though.

Speculation Grows Around Oilers-Maple Leafs 4-for-2 Trade Package

Speculation links the Oilers to Ekman-Larsson and either Nicolas Roy or Scott Laughton in a major Maple Leafs trade package.

Oilers place Mangiapane on waivers.

Had high hopes for him working with our group, alas.

Regula also on waivers.

If the Oilers put Janmark on LTIR with Samanski & Howard in minors, then calling them up later would take up their AAV (cap hit + perf bonuses) of 1.46M & 1.62M. However, if they’re on the NHL roster when Janmark goes on LTIR, they count as their cap hits of 975K & 950K.Therefore, expect EDM to send the guys on waivers down after clearing waivers so they have room to call up 1 or both of Samanski & Howard. Once up, they can put Janmark on LTIR. Then, after the players sent down play at least 1 AHL game, they could be swapped back

We can only hope someone picks him up…..please, please…..but probably not

Wonder if we can make Justin Faulk work….

Both Mangiapane and Regula cleared waivers, so I assume they're now on their way to Bakersfield.
The team has also recalled forwards Josh Samanski & Isaac Howard.

TRADE!
