The Mike Smith experience was definitely a wild ride, the perfect encapslation of McDavid era Oilers hockey, and I've been on record since the offseason saying I wished hed played out his contract.

Just four more years at $5m per! They can buy him out once his next signing bonus is paid though.

In his 4 years with an NHL contract, Bowers has 1:46 in ice time.

That's M:SS

in his 12 years with an NHL contract, Kinkaid's longest contract is 2 years.

He has a 968 sv% and 1 GAA for Boston this year*

If Jones is included in the Kane trade the Rangers defense is in even more trouble.

The Buffalo Sabres have $18m in cap space, +2 2nd round, -1 3rd round draft pick over the next 3 years, and are in a playoff spot.

Okay

Bowers is a former 1st round pick the Avs picked up as part of the Duchene trade. He's been farting about in the AHL and got injured immediately when he finally got his first NHL call up. He played college hockey in Boston.

Kincaid is kind of an odd pickup for the Avs, as I think he's really only useful for the next couple of weeks while Francouz is out.

I'm surprised he only got a 2024 2nd as well considering his cap hit is $4m through next season.

I guess if you are not retaining salary (or cap dumps) the market for anyone at 4 million is pretty limited just because so few teams can make that work.

He used to be really streaky as a scorer. He also has a history of getting traded for not much, so this is probably the most anyone's paid for him. Previously, it was Cal Clutterbuck and Victor Rask.

Still, he scored a great game winning goal in a game 7 against the Avs.

McDavid is going to be the first player since Lemieux to have 1.8 ppg. And the Oilers might miss the playoffs.

edit: Also probably to first player since Gretzky in 86/87 to solely lead the league in goals and assists.
