Be free. Schultz has never produced as hired to do. Klefbom has emerged.
I'm ready to cut the guy loose and let him be some other optimistic owner's problem. Brian Elliott is on the waiver wire and clears at midnight, and I'm hoping to snag him.
Roster/settings in sig (team 1).
Thoughts?
Be free. Schultz has never produced as hired to do. Klefbom has emerged.
I've watched every Oilers game since Shultz has come into the league. He's a Brutal Bust, with two capital B's. Cut bait and grab Klefbom if he's available.

You start 4D and have 4D - so if you cut Schultz you will be playing short? And Elliot will be your 4th option in goal in a start 2?
While Schultz is close to useless, is Elliot that much better? I suppose you can hope for an injury to Allen (b/c I don't see the wheels falling off there)...
*Give up?
He's just returned from the IR and you are going to give up now? If you kept him the whole time he was injured why cut him now that he's returned?
You might as well keep him now.

"Cleavage is like the sun. You can look, but dont stare.. Unless you're wearing sunglasses."
I still have some faith in him. If I was offered Schultz I wouldn't pay a premium but in my league anyway I would pick him if he became available.
I plan to trade away Craig Anderson and keep 3 goalies. I want a more bonafide defenseman than the waiver garbage out there currently, and I think Elliott's value will return to a 1B that puts up great percentages as a third keeper.
With what, 1 assist in 8 games on a team that had a healthy McDavid, and a -5, I'm better off with a blank spot on the blueline.
Depends on the league. If he continues to be an nhl regular i think he'll get his pp chances but i wouldn't pay much to get him as the risk is high.

While we're on the topic of EDM defensemen...how has Nurse looked to this point?
Checking out Frozen Pool, he's played 20+ minutes each of the last 5 games and seems to be shooting the puck as well. Playing with Sekara indicates he's on the top pairing too. Does he look out of place there? How's his offensive game look?

I would tend to agree. I mean, he's not really standing out amongst his team mates consistently, but no one really is these days in Edmonton. But this appears to be Klefbom and Nurse's team for the future. May change a bit if they finally get their heads out of there asses and try to move some of this young talent for established Vet's, but I fine Nurse and Klefbom to be the best D on the ice most nights.
I find it interesting that between him and Gardiner (both former Anaheim prospects that were really highly touted for their offensive skillset) that neither of them have really made themselves out to be key cogs in their respective teams' offense.
