Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer · Host of the Nationwide Podcast & the Athletic's Aaron Portzline (7/24/26) · 24 Jul 2026 podcast

He wanted to stick it out.

The other part that was frustrating is just getting a straight word from anybody about, you know, what truly are the facts of this case.

What was that?

And best I can tell, there was never a trade request.

There has not been a trade request.

And I don't think it was emphatically articulated that he will not be signing in two years when his contract is up.

I think what was articulated is that if things don't get better around here, he's not going to be resigning.

And yet I don't want to be naive, A, to what's happened here in the past.

Players have asked out.

Players have asked to be traded.

But just specifically to this case, he was traded to Dallas and said no.

This was not a media creation that he wanted to be traded.

So listen, if they're not in the hunt, it's going to become a story again at the trade deadline.

And if he doesn't sign an extension next July 1st, the earliest day that he can, it's going to become a story again.

And I think it's quieted down for now, but it is not by any means gone.

I would not say that.

situation well i think the driver here at the end was the fact and those numbers going into arbitration can be a little misleading like they're accurate i'm not questioning that but each side picks the extreme version of their ask because you're trying to pull the arbitrator as far as you can in your direction and the arbitrator usually lands

in the middle.

So the middle would have been 5.15.

He ends up at 5 million.
