God bless him. I don't know what most people...

Oilers at Wild, G56, 09-10

There are whispers afoot regarding the Edmonton Oilers and defenseman Tom Gilbert. I regard this as a rumor most foul, considering it would be an extreme example of selling low. Tom Gilbert is not having a good season, in fact this is the worst season (by my eye) of his NHL career. Why then would I consider this a bad time to deal off a defenseman with a very healthy cap hit?Tom...
