Hall - RNH - Eberle
Horcoff - Gagner - Hemsky
MSP - Belanger - ??? (sorry for my lack of knowledge but the first 3 lines are already amazing)

Whitney - Gilbert
Peckham - ??? (again oh well)

???

playoff team? shit i am just glad im a eberle owner!!!
i wish he's a leafs.... eberle with 5.4 seconds left scores the winning goal and the leafs win the stanley cup!

[anton]

you're jealous of a team with 8 forwards, 3 defensemen, and no goalies?

[hong57]

u ain't? the word eberle has already made you jealous

[MSP4LYFE]

I see it shaking out something like this:

Taylor Hall - Ryan Nugent-Hopkins - Jordan Eberle
Ryan Smyth ----- Shawn Horcoff ----- Ales Hemsky
Magnus Paajarvi ---- Sam Gagner --- Linus Omark
Ryan Jones ------- Eric Belanger -------- Ben Eager
Ex: Gilbert Brule, Darcy Hordichuk

Ryan Whitney - Theo Peckham
Tom Gilbert - Ladislav Smid
Cam Barker - Andy Sutton
Ex: Jeff Petry

Nikolai Khabibulin
Devan Dubynk

IMO, Offensive Lines are:

Taylor Hall - Sam Gagner - Alex Hemsky
Ryan Smyth - Ryan Nugent-Hopkins - Jordan Eberle
Magnus Paajarvi - Shawn Horcoff - Linus Omark
Ryan Jones - Eric Belanger - Ben Eager

If RNH plays well he'll get a chance with Hall. But Gagner starts on that line.

[Robin Hood]

Oh and it is very possibly Hemsky is traded. I've been hearing a lot about it.

[MSP4LYFE]

Oh and it is very possibly Hemsky is traded. I've been hearing a lot about it.

That would make the most sense, and free room for Omark/Paajarvi, I am surprised the Oilers resigned Jones to a one way deal for 1.5 (two years). It really handicaps what they can do with Hartikainen/Brule/Lander, and IMO Jones is no more than a mediocre third liner.

What's sad about this is I live in Edmonton right now and there is zero buzz about the team at all. Also half the people dont know who they drafted first overall...What a waste of a City to half this much talent. Don't get me wrong they'll jump on the band wagon once these guys break out, im just tired of all the Glenn hall and Jordan everly talk.

[MSP4LYFE]

lulz

[Shep]

playoff team?

Defintely not even close this year.

[Nick]

VAN
LA
CHI
DET
SJS
ANA
NSH

CLB/STL/CGY/MIN

DAL
COL
PHX
EDM

But, imagine if Hong is right. What if Hall, Eberle, MSP, Omark all take that next step, RNH is ROY stuff, Horcoff & Hemsky are healthy & the bulin wall is strong circa 1980.

[bills09]

Edmonton wont make playoffs, i even doubt hopkins makes the team.

[Shoalzie]

Honger, I'll trade ya Dubnyk/Bulin for Luongo...

[Scott]

fuck RNH is overrated
