Injury Report: Archibald “Not up to Speed”

[Gregsky99]

Sounds like Archie has other health issues as well. Not just a covid issue so please try to keep that talk out of this. Mods Can merge this with another thread if they feel they should.

[Del Preston]

Trade him for a #1 goalie.

 

[KlefDown]

Trade him for a #1 goalie.

#1 goalie in the ECHL

 

[RipsADrive]

Trade him for a #1 goalie.

Archibald for Gibson.

Let's throw in a 3rd as a sweetener.

 

[soothsayer]

Am I reading this right, that the Oilers could have almost 5M in cap space this season?

 

[Aerchon]

False negatives happen. Had a friend get sick from her husband who was covid positive along with 5 of his fellow coworkers recently. She assumed she obviously had covid as well of course and got tested. Negative not once but twice so she is now going to get further testing to confirm if she did indeed have it.

Nothing but speculation but it's possible he has or had Covid and is having issues because of it.

Edit: also. The cap numbers don't make sense. I thought we were tight including LTIR and Archibald wouldn't change that much. What's the rest number?

You should read the op first.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Just too much heroism.

 

[onetweasy]

So Archie is going with the Mackenzie Blackwood approach……

 

[Marty McSurly]

He either has (or had) Covid or this is an elaborate ploy to avoid answering for his brain dead penalty in the playoffs last year.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

I wish him the best and hope that he gets back to full health regardless of what the issue is.

I don't consider my comments Covid related, as they are specifically in context to Archibalds situation and I don't see how they would cause any issues. But if someone wants me to delete I can.

I think this dude is gonna end up turning into 1.125M of extra cap space.

We are close right now because we haven’t placed klef on the LTIR yet. We can either leave him on the roster until after the start date or put him on early but then we need to exceed the cap by exactly his amount. Better to be at the max cap without LTIR and add after to take max advantage of cap savings

 

[Oilers in NS]

Trade him for a #1 goalie.

Town league?

We had about 3M after Yamamoto signed.

The main reason why it doesn't appear to be the case is that we are over the 23 man unit, and have to send down players still (and the players we pick to go down will affect our cap space too), and we have Klefbom's LTIR, which isn't claimed yet.

 

[KCC]

Hopefully whatever it is they figure it out and he gets better. That’s obviously more important than hockey for him at this point.

You think he’s getting a false negative everyday?

 

[McJadeddog]

Exactly. I have my opinion on his choices, as we all do I'm sure, but first and foremost is his health. He is a young person and it would be a shame for him to have any bad outcomes. Especially considering how he makes a living.

 

[oobga]

If this is a ploy for the OIlers to get an extra 1.5M of LTIR and for Archie to avoid having to play in the AHL, I will be impressed. Oilers are due to game the system a bit after all the scams other teams have pulled. If he's legit having a health issue though, hope he is better soon.,

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

do i understand this?

Archibalds covid vaccine issue is actually Hollands secret chicanery?
