Your Tough as Nails Roleplayer to EDM

I'm just tired of watching my team get pushed around. The effort level this year is better, but we just have nobody to set the tone... teams come in and they don't care because they don't need to care. even when the Oilers come in and outwork the opposition, we get beat on softies and lose anyway.

My biggest wishlist for the offseason is a big mean RHD, some centers who can win faceoffs, and a guy or two that just run around and hit everything that moves. If Tambellini can grab a Halpern/Smithson/Nichol/Konopka, a Tootoo/Kaleta/Clarkson, and a guy like Jurcina, Wisniewski or Engelland i would get down on my knees and ask him to marry me.

I just want a solid bottom six group of forwards, and bottom four group of defence to support the young boys on top. The Oilers have a ton of holes in em right now, but i think that the defensive side is probably the easiest to remedy.

Perhaps something to the effect of this:

To EDM:
Mike Komisarek (4.5 mil for 4 years)
Colton Orr (1 million for three years)
2nd/3rd round

To TOR:
Tom Gilbert (4 million over next three years)

I'm curious, how much would it cost to grab your big tough roleplayers and put them in an Oilers jersey?

Steve Ott comes to mind, but I think his off-ice value makes him unmoveable from a Stars POV.

Troy Brouwer for a 4th round draft pick or a middling prospect in the offseason.

Something to that effect would be excellent, in my opinion.

How much extra would you ask for Corrente to be thrown in? I feel like Gilbert is worth a touch more than Clarkson. Without Whitney, Gilbert is looking damn good playing almost 30 minutes a night.

Brouwer and Carcillo would be exciting as well, although Carcillo can annoy me sometimes. I like the kid, but he dives/feigns a ton, and recently he has been very "disciplined", meaning he won't fight anyone within his size range.

Penner for Komisarek + 3rd?

Komi is terrible... I would take Jim Vandermeer over him and I'm not kidding.

Stinks you guys didn't make a deal for Eager...Blues offer up Ryan Reaves. Kid is BIG and he offers up a pretty mean forecheck.

I'd love both of them. I think Asham is a slightly better hockey player, but Rupp can win faceoffs and is a more physical beast.

Fans of the same team, but so COMPLETELY different. One is intelligent and one is not.
