Jonathon, I wish you luck... I'm the GM of the Edmonton Oilers and I feel I've done a very nice job turning them around in one season... you can do it!

If you're looking for a trade partner, I'm always up for negotiations, take a look at my roster and PM me!

Edmonton, you have definitely put together a nice looking team! You've got a good number of valuable players at this stage of your rebuilding effort however I would venture to guess you stepped into the GM role with some great young talent still laying around.

St.Louis is currently missing half their roster for one reason or another and it appears some of their best core NHL roster players are gone except for Halak.

Actually, now that I reflect on the start of my tenure are Ottawa's Owner/GM I would have to say Ottawa was in better shape than St.Louis is today.

When I took over and there were great players to trade and help me rebuild the team the way I wanted. We've moved Bieksa, Fisher, Peverley, Latendresse, Tanguay, Clemmensen, Neil, Alfredsson, Spezza, Phaneuf, all great players in their own right but they either didn't fit into my team's philosophy, salary structure, contract structure, player style or age group.

Today, we have a core of Mike Richards, Andrew Ladd, Jamie Benn, Dan Boyle, Kristian Huselius, Brad Boyes, Andrei Markov, Brian Gionta.

Our youth movement is led by the likes of Casey Wellman (MIN), Andrew Desjardins (SJ), Drayson Bowman (CAR), Jerome Samson (CAR), Bobby Butler (OTT), Erik Condra (OTT), Ian Cole (STL), Dmitry Orlov (WSH).

Our Farm system never looked better with 11 of our 12 prospects being NHL bound within 1-2 seasons.

And finally we have two 1st Round picks, three 2nd Round draft picks to truly build up our prospect depth.

Ottawa is definitely not done reshaping the team and the off season will be an interesting one for sure with Free agency being a great time to go shopping for this organization.

I traded away Taylor Hall for a king's ransom to the Flyers... that was the trade that set me up for where I am today... I also packaged Ales Hemsky with 2 draft picks and a defensive prospect to get Zetterberg & Hudler - 2 guys who have flex positions.

You're right, if you have one or two good players, you can make a few trades and turn things around rather quickly!

St. Louis isn't looking horrible. Not great for this season but they do have:
Patrick Berglund, $6.0m (2014-2015)
David Perron, $2.2m (2011-2012)
Evander Kane, $3.1m (2011-2012)
Gabriel Landeskog, $3.0m (2013-2014)
Erik Johnson, $2.6m (2011-2012)
Jaroslav Halak, $3.8m (2013-2014)
C - Jaden Schwartz, N/C, (0 Games)
C - Charlie Coyle, N/C, (0 Games)
D - Stuart Percy, N/C, (0 Games)
G - Jake Allen, N/C, (0 Games)

and going to have tons of crap room in the off-season to go after some players, these players are musts to be re-signed though or they will be in big trouble for the future instead of just this season.

Edmonton's trade with Philly was a good trade looking back on it now but I still wouldn't trade a cheap (3m) 1st overall selection without getting a good return. Hartnell has lit it up this season which he didn't last year and Bob has gotten equal starts and we didn't believe he would with Bryz signing that deal. I would say the Hemsky deal was your biggest deal for ya.

:ANA: skaters are doing well. I'll try to bring at least one starter goalie to compete next season.

Skaters only score
w19 Ducks 88.7 - Flames 70.6

Look at :STL-NHL: and tell me you can rebuild in 1 year and :ANA: is probably in a worse position, somehow. I understand :STL-NHL: , they suck in real life, but :ANA: is good.  Somebody drained that team bad. So, yes you can in 1 year, if you find a really bad GM and drain their team. Actually, someone drained my team too, best two players are absent from my team (pietrangelo, backes) I do have something that should at least help me and that is money. With contracts ending this year and current cap space, I will have 43M to work with :beer:

I think I can say my rebuild is complete after a trade I pulled off last night...

It started a week or so ago when I traded Hartnell for Milan Michalek & a 1st round draft pick.

Last night I turned around and packaged both my 1st round picks and Devan Dubnyk for Carey Price - giving me one of the premiere starting goalies in the league. That was the one thing keeping me from competing for the cup, but now I think I can do some damage come playoff time.

So, if Edmonton is any point of reference, I rebuilt them in about 8 months. But like it was stated before, I had a good young piece to move (Taylor Hall), and that set this whole thing up.

Kudos to you Edmonton! A very nice rebuilding project with a number of good to great trades to put yourself in a position to compete for the championship.

Now I'll have to go an analyze your moves to see which teams and players I should work with. :thumbsup:

That was an awesome trade between Oilers and the Canadiens. I did a similar deal earlier in the season to land Jakob Markstrom and a veteran in Dwayne Roloson. I do think Devan is going to be a starter next season and just look at the super star studded team that will play in front of him with Taylor Hall, RNH, Jordan Eberle, Sam Gagner. That's some serious fire power in Edmonton. What's not to like?!

  • indiansnation: Giants To Sign Blake Snell March 18th, 2024 at 8:45pm CST • By Anthony Franco 8:45pm: Snell receives a $15MM salary for the upcoming season and has a $17MM signing bonus that will not be paid until 2026, reports Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle (on X). That indicates he’ll be deciding on whether to opt out of a $30MM salary next winter, although the delayed date on the payment of the bonus reduces the team’s short-term commitment.  8:23pm: Blake Snell is in agreement with the Giants on a two-year, $62MM contract that allows him to opt out after the upcoming season, reports Jon Heyman of the New York Post (X link). San Francisco adds the defending NL Cy Young winner to the top of a staff that also includes last year’s runner-up, Logan Webb.  ADVERTISEMENT
