For Ottawa it would be cheaper than buying out Murray (let's say 50% of his salary vs 67% via buyout) and at a 50% cap hit it doesn't really hurt the Oilers so it could be worth it for them.
To Ottawa: Koskinen, Turris (taxi squad)
To Edmonton: Murray (50% cap/salary retained)

Edmonton would be stupid to do that

Both Turris and Koskinen are UFAs and it's clear Koskinen's relationship with Tippett is ruined. The Oilers have Skinner in their system but aside from that have no depth. Mike Smith will be 40 next year and is oft-injured, and Stalock is a UFA after this year as well. To take a chance on Murray at half the cost while giving up virtually nothing isn't "stupid". At 50% he's well below the average cost per starter and perhaps given a change of scenery and better team he can rebound.

I still think defense is our #1 issue. Maybe that solution comes internally. Time will tell.

Pierre Dorion tells us he spoke to Andrei Kuzmenko's agent (Dan Milstein) last night. Kuzmenko is a sought after winger having a great season with St. Petersburg in the KHL. He was a teammate of Artem Zub's for 2 seasons.

Dorion says he will meet with Kuzmenko’s agent in the coming days. Lots of interest but #Sens have a good shot.
