Just a reminder that the Oilers have Jack Campbell under contract for $5 million per year for another 3 years after this season.

They also traded their 1st round pick for Henrique and Carrick, neither of whom are playing for them in this series.

They also will use up another $1.9 million in cap space next season to pay James Neal.

Darnell Nurse makes more money than Cale Makar.

Elimination game in 2024 they are deciding between Skinner and Pickard to be their starter in net.

Truly amazing work by Oilers management over the years.
And some in Columbus are like "Holland is an experienced GM, we should go after him"

Capfriendly just rolled over to next season.
Shows Edm with $9.8MM in space to fill 9 roster spots.

3rd and 4th line gonna be AHL again.
Leon has one year left on his deal, and Connor's expires the year after that.

Fortunately, Nurse is locked up until 2030

They really went all-in this year and Leon is due a big raise...Bouchard will also be due a big raise. Then Connor will be due a big raise. I don't see how they keep all these guys even with the cap going up.

What’s funny is despite all of this they’re still probably only getting rid of Ceci for a replacement level stay-at-home D and having Henrique healthy from probably being able to go deeper and they still probably are screwed.

This is a generational fumble.

If I told you Quinn Hughes and Elias Pettersson would combine for 1 goal and 14 points and Thatcher Demko would play in 1 game up to this point, you‘d probably think we’d have been eliminated in round one. The depth has been huge.
