Join host Nick Zararis on this episode of Locked on Oilers for a deep dive into the Edmonton Oilers current salary cap crunch and steps the team is taking to become cap compliant. Cap considerations were the driving force of the Ryan McLeod for Matthew Savoie trade, it may put Evander Kane on LTIR to start the season and it means playing hard ball with Evan Bouchard, Phillip Broberg and Dylan Holloway

Nice work, Nick. Keep it up! Btw, if I remember correctly Holland did let Kane take a look at the FA market before he came back and signed with the Oilers.

Should do more research on Savoie... he's a similar style player to Brayden Point, is producing more than Point at the same age, and his PNHLe comparison has him at 74 points in the NHL. You seem to be severely neutering any expectations of him just so when he does blow the doors off on the place, you can tell yourself "oh that was a happy accident". Additionally he barely missed being the first player ever in the WHL to ever get exceptional player status. You never know til you know and there is some risk with him still being a prospect who has moslty only played junior to this point. But he definitely has potential to become a 1st line player, even on this stacked roster. So Oilers fans should be very excited about that. Whatever will be will be, he'll have to earn it first, but we got a lot more of a player than you're letting on.

Like, I enjoy being pleasantly surprised as much as the next guy... but if you're trying to provide educated NHL analysis, I feel like you kinda missed that mark here with your evaluation of Savoie. "barely holding on to an NHL roster spot with his 'little bit' of offensive upside" ??? Lol, that's scoffable. Dude will make the NHL and he will put up numbers. He has a nose for the net, he's highly skilled and a very good skater too. He will score a lot of points in the NHL and will likely not be able to stay on the Oilers for more than 3 years because he's gonna price himself off this team.

No one expected Hyman to be a 50 goal scorer but here we are. I think the trade is fin considering we could just have easily traded him for a second round pick. But we got a top prospect. I think size shouldnt matter to much. Look at Stankoven in Dallas.

I wonder if the new trick will be similar to the Gudreau incident. Ok Kane have a 15 team list! Oilers at the deadline put him on waivers and ducks pick him up, oilers then trade them a 2nd rounder for future considerations. I personally hope they keep him and LTIR him not only for the cap but so he’s 100% healthy. The best season for him was his HALF season where he ran the flames out of the building!

Totally agreed . McLeod for Savoie, is a great salary dump ,

NMC - not here the don't - Kenny and Peter gave them out as an addition to paying top dollar. Remember Lucic- 6m X 7 PLUS a full NMC - crazy stuff. Now, RNH's deal is good - that is a time when you put a NMC in. If I were a player I would want top dollar- and no NMC, if I was giving my team a 'discount' to play there, then I would insist on the NMC.

Oilers should keep Kane on the LTIR all year so he can hang with his family and work out get 100%. After the All Star Game Nurse goes on the LTIR. Then that opens 15 million on free agents, miraculously Nurse and Kane heal right before playoffs and join the team

Evander can’t rehab the hernia. It needs to be removed and it can take months before he can resume his career. This might be something in September that they do and put him on LTIR until likely December He needs surgery or it can get worse

McCleod was a good player other than the 2-3 times he turned the puck over in the playoffs that lead directly to goals 😜

He’s a “little undersized “ lol. He’s small for the PWHL.

So is Draistal but teams usualyy do it a year before to avoid losing them for nothing, kinda like NYI with Tavares

The Bouchard thing bugs me because he’s going to get greedy and he’s NOT worth it, if it wasn’t for being paired with Ekholm people would see this, Bouchard would be the worst minus in history with pathetic defensive play, trade him while he’s worth something more than actuality

The Oilers took in their recycle empties and checked under the sofa cushions and came short of having the millions we need to give raises. So we aren't trading equivalents...we're freeing up money, so hold on we're going to be unloading players for virtually nothing. For the water or skate shine boys. Jackson was caught jacking 50 catalytic converters. Lucky it was his first offense...he is out on bail.
