"The Oilers were holding a full house with the ace of spades and they threw the ace of spades away," Marchant said.

"That's the way I look at it. They had all of the cards last summer and they didn't throw the hand down.

"Instead, they decided to discard a 10-year player who filled an important role on their team. That's fine. They're going in a certain direction and so are we."

Marchant will command in excess of $5 million for two years, with the New York Rangers, Buffalo and Philadelphia the teams likeliest to come calling. So, what's not to like?

He's worth it, especially because he is probably the only top-6 forward who would sign with us. He had 20 goals, 40 assists, and a +13 last year. We could definately use him.

The PR of the "hometown boy coming home" will help with the deal. I say "show him the money!"
