Did the Oilers lose one of their best prospects for nothing? Or are we once again over-valuing our prospects? Let us know what you think in the comments.

Oilers should send old guys down bruh, we need fast players and better defense
I don't understand why it is that Vegas now gets Lavoie and he's sent down for Vegas.
Vegas called a favour getting Colorado(?) to put in a claim when we got him back
Interesting that a third party didn't put a claim on him when Vegas tries to grab him, but only when Edmonton tries to send him down. At this point I think people are taking shots at Bowman personally, that and with the offer sheets
Grasping , letโs bring in this dman, how about this guy, just 2 weeks ago you were saying how Emberson is equivalent to a $5 million defenceman, wtf just bandaid everything and hope it holds, why not just keep Ceci, or maybe Broberg would of been easier and less stress, what a joke this is turning into ๐ ๐
They needed lavoie sent down so they can build cap for the deadline
They knew he would get claimed, and they know the kind of player they got their hands on with him. Which my me ask โwhy did they send him down againโ. Should have traded him so they would get something, but giving him away for free seemed like the best option
I have to laugh. ๐ worst mistake Jackson made was the hiring of Stan creepy Bowman who is turning this franchise into a circus atmosphere: 1) not keeping Dylan Holloway and Philip Broberg 2) the charade of Raphael Lavoie . They could have used him in their lineup to beef up on size and add some depth and skill. Now they play a game of I donโt know what to do with you Lavoie . Stan is an idiot. Worst hire for GM.
