Horcoff for Nash

I expect him to improve the team. I don't expect them to win the cup anytime soon but at least make the playoffs. The Oilers are no better today than they were yesterday. If they keep the status quo, I expect another rebuilding year next year and that ****es me off. When does that process end?

Rebuilding = AT LEAST a 4 year process. Let me ask you this...what would you have liked to see done yesterday?

As far as I am concerned, we have been rebuilding since 2007. I would like to see at least the Bulin wall being traded away. He's 39. The Oilers is using Dubnyk more and more and I don't think Khabibulin fits into the Oilers' future plan. I am sure some teams would love to get a goaltender of his calibre for their playoff push (Toronto for example) or as an insurance to their playoff drive (Pitt or NYR let's say). It won't cost them an arm and a leg and the Oilers can get something back in return (a draft pick or prospect). That's one move. I can give you a couple more if you like.
