Oilers win Stanley Cup

[StirCrazy]

I don't think Ryan Nugent-Hopkins would be a good choice, the oilers already have a tone of fire power, and getting rid of Hemsky would be an even bigger mistake. he lead the team with his shoulder still not even close to 100% and is an amazing set up guy. Hall would have won the rookie race if he didn't sprain his ankle but on the good not both have a good reast time to heal.

with Magnus, omark, omarra, jones, eberly, and the others they actualy have a hell of a forard line up for most lines which has showen.

what I think they need to do is let habby go (isn't his contract up this year?) bring gerber up as the starter and give Dubby more play as he has been very impressive this year and is almost ready to be the starter. Gerber in his 4 showings this year had 4 wins 2 of them shutouts.

what they need to do is get a good defence so they can have more than 1 top blue line pair. by adding Adam Larsson (who in the final NHL rankings is #1 overall, Ryan nugent is #1 for northamerican skaters) brings a 6'3", 200lbs blue liner who can do it all.

here is a quote from the scouting report on him

“Adam is one of the best skater’s in this year’s draft -- he has excellent speed and mobility. He also has patient puck handling abilities and can surprise an opponent with a solid hit. His size and skating ability make him comparable with Tampa Bay Lightning defenseman Victor Hedman.”


he is also being compared to Calle Johansson. could you imagin the oilers with 3 solid scoring d lines?
