Kings Trade Ben Scrivens To Oilers

[raptorlife4]

So essentially the Oilers give up a 3rd round pick and pick up an overpaid 4th liner for a 3 month tryout for Ben Scrivens?

Mac-T in the house ya'll

Making moves just for the sake of making them.

Yeah, I guess so.

Scrivens probably would've been better off being sent to Afghanistan to simultaneously & single handedly fight against the Taliban as well as the drones.

I think the Kings got a draft pick in that initial deal, so it'd be two picks

And 500k cap space

Not bad for a goalie you weren't going to re-sign.

Maybe playing for the Maple Leafs will prepare Scrivens well for playing for the Oilers. Both teams play similar style defense (as in they don't play defense). Good luck Mr. Scrivens & God speed.

Gotta think Eakins had a big say in this deal. His starting goalie while coaching the Marlies. Pretty sure they were in the championship last year.

Makes sense, an AHL coach and an AHL roster, that's harmonious.
