As an unbiased observer, I would say their window is closed. Slammed shut by the 'Nucks.

I didn't think it was possible to cobble together a team of more dislikable players than the 2010-2011 Canucks. I stand corrected :D

Oilers likely have just enough cap space to sign Jake Virtanen...I mean, why stop now?

lol - I guess never say never, but I think Babs is done like dinner as far as the NHL is concerned.

/Bill Peters is trying to rehab himself with the Lethbridge Hurricanes in the Dub, I could see a possible return for ole Billy.

I wouldn't be so sure. I wish I had faith that Quenneville is done too. I just don't.

It's pretty incredible to me that whatever Perry did was serious enough that the Hawks were able to terminate his contract and yet not serious enough that another team was able to sign him just a few months later.

Staples put out an article and compiled some social media reaction to the Perry signing and as you might have guessed, Oilers fans appear to have no issue with bringing Perry on board. I gotta believe the Oilers were not at the top of Perry's desired destinations and thus this was Corey's last chance at playing in the NHL.

Tampa would have been a logical destination. Playoff contender needing help at F, and recent familiarity. Have to believe Tampa took a hard pass.

Come on now. I know that you hate the Oilers @dash but this is too much. Virtanen?

There is no room for him once they sign Brendan Leipsic. But you just go ahead and keep hating the Oilers for some unknown reason. :crazy:

This is different in my opinion for a couple of reasons:

1. Mailloux was only 17 when he leaked the photos of the woman without her consent - Sure, it's still bad, but who didn't do dumb and regrettable things when they were 17.
2. It didn't happen when Mailloux was under contract by a NHL team.

has there been any confirmation or accurate information of what Perry actually did? even a believable rumour?
