I hate the idea of trading either Gilbert, or Grebeshkov for the simple fact that they are young, constantly improving, and have oodles of potential. I think if Buffalo is looking to replace Spacek....Visnovsky would be the guy to go. It would free up some more of our cap space. Of course it couldn't be a staight accross trade....any suggestions, Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029854105012171366.post-32810389536191178972009-08-18T08:11:38.400-07:002009-08-18T08:11:38.400-07:00I think as the post before you stated, Buffalo doe...I think as the post before you stated, Buffalo doesn't want to move Gaustad. I suggest they only may be willing because their need for a puck moving d-man is stronger and to do so they'd require someone a bit more established. <br /><br />I think a trade of this kind would be more than just a straight across one for one type deal because it's more complicated knowing contracts, vs oilersinsiderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17709948595124967969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3029854105012171366.post-29926714344058936622009-08-18T07:57:12.841-07:002009-08-18T07:57:12.841-07:00Based on your numbers on Guastad, he is the PERFEC...Based on your numbers on Guastad, he is the PERFECT fit for the Oilers. I have always felt that the last two years of dissapointment could have been resolved with a team that was better in the dot and a team that wasn't such a pushover on the PK. <br /><br />Guastad brings all of that to the table plus brings in the team toughness that the Oilers desperately need.

Buffalo may trade some of the smaller players but they are in the same situation as the Oilers in wanting to get bigger so I would have to say that Guastad is not going anywhere.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
