Good evening Patrick from Germany. From my point of view, Bouchard and Drai will stay at the oilers. Drai isn't the type of guy following the biggest money. It needs more a sign of respect at him to get his autograph and I think he will get it from the hole franchise! Bouch I think is the same type of guy like Drai. So it will be done by finding the right words and also the right numbers to get both. GM candidates, I don't know all of them not so good as you, but I think that should be somebody who will characterly are able to work in the same direction than the franchise and perhaps having some experiences with the franchise in the past too. It is a puzzle piece that have to fit in order to do the best work... . Cheers from Germany 🎉🎉

I am not convinced Katz won't talk Jackson to stay on as Interim GM for this season. He's been their best GM since Lowe in 2005/2006. Leon Draisaitl will sign for $13.5 million/8 years. Bouchard will be a $9.5 million/8 year extension. Connor McDavid will come in at $15 million/8 years. Skinner is probably $6 million per season. The Oilers will hold on to Nuge and Hyman. They may try to move Nurse. Skinner won't be retained past this season for money reason. Ceci will go this summer. Ekholm's extension in a few seasons will come down a million or two. Kane will not be retained. They will make the money work, as the cap will be going up around $4 million per season. Stan Bowman will be the next GM, because puke.

Trade Drai, he did not produce during the final!

Loose Bouchard. They need the cap space and they need someone who can play defence.

Trade Leon save some money and get Crosby in trade for less money

I can't see the Oilers willing to Tampa Bay Leon like they did their former Captain now in Nashville. I honestly see Leon signing a one year deal (to put him and Connor in sync). This way if his friend doesn't resign it's purely his choice to move or not. I can't see him or Connor moving. Hopefully the fullness of time proves me right and they're Oilers forever (at a fair price with a nice long dynasty). Take care all.

Jackson for GM

[@jonahsemenchuk184]

There are so many oilers channels but sincerely, yours is the best. Thanks for the updates Patrick.

[@juleswinnfield6930]

Drai and McD are tight bros, no need for narratives that he wants the sole spotlight on "HIS TEAM". Have a good weekend Patrick!!!

[@billmills9991]

Sean Burke

[@deputy7586]

Burke ,Hunter or Gretzky would be my choices but Jackson has not made a bad move yet. Drai and Bouch will remain oilers .
