Ahhhh, the NHL trade deadline! A day where hockey fans across the league are glued to their TV’s, social media or let’s be honest, Frank Seravalli’s Twitter account as he breaks all the trades of the day. But for now, let’s focus just on the Edmonton Oilers and the greatest fan base in the league (unbiased opinion).

Bobby Margarita has entered the chat.

Then there are those who have the ultimate perspective:
And just when you thought the day was done…
…Mark Spector has entered the chat and we won’t hold the spelling error against him.
Our very own NHL Sid gives us the rundown on Derick Brassard:
 
But some Oilers fans weren’t too excited about this move…
Finally, to summarize this NHL trade deadline, here’s a tweet from Jason Gregor:
 
What are your thoughts on the addition of Kulak and Brassard while saying our goodbyes to Lagesson a second and a fourth round draft pick? Talk to us in the comments! Do you love the trades or absolutely hate them?
Tell us how you really feel and definitely don’t hold back!
