    Dear god. Not sure how healthy he actually is and if he's really any better than what they already have but worse case scenario, they'll bury him in the minors. At least they didn't have to spend an asset to get him.

    Defensive depth is always hard to come by at playoff time and down the stretch... so its a decent addition for free.

    If it doesn't work, he'll help Bakersfield and it won't hurt the Oilers other than carrying another contract against their 50.

    I don't know what the "7m" means at the beginning of your post, but I saw it almost spit out my drink thinking that was the salary.

    Hahahah oh sorry man, that's text in the tweet that indicates how long ago the tweet was when I copied and pasted it. "7 minutes ago".

    Also to clarify that is a signing bonus and not a performance bonus.

    Funky situation with the Klingberg signing. If the team operates in LTIR then he counts for $1.75M on the cap. If they aren't in LTIR then he counts for $0.825M. This is from PuckPedia: https://x.com/PuckPedia/status/1880366323789676706

    *

    Considering the names that are out there on the trade market right now, I far prefer making this signing and seeing how things play out than cashing in chips for a trade piece. For example, can you imagine trading picks and eating any portion of Ristolainen's salary for this season and two more? He's only playing effectively because he's been buried on the third pair. He's overpriced for what he brings to the table. They already have a bunch of options to throw at the third pair right side option and they are all far more cost effective.

    I am skeptical that this will work out, but if you buy the hype Klingberg's decline began when the hip issues cropped up, so if the hips are clean and the rehab went well he offers more upside than just about any trade option. There's also a decent amount of runway between this signing and the trade deadline to figure out if this is a fit. If it's not then you check down to a deadline move.
