A stack of quotes appearing on Twitter right now regarding the Oilers position going into the trade deadline. 1. "I have no plans to move Ryan Smyth. Ryan has made it clear that he wants to stay here and play for the Oilers." - GM Tambellini I guess that means Smyth is not available. Good for the Oilers, keeping their word on this subject.
