In a surprising move today, the Edmonton Oilers have aquired the rights to Former Muppet and upcoming prospect; Cookie Monster. Since Pronger left the Oilers earlier this summer, Edmonton has been looking for a dominate physical presence on the blue line, and they feel that they have addressed that concern with the move today.
McTavish was quoted as saying;
"Although he doesn't have a lot of NHL experience, he has a huge upside. This kid is a real leader, and has a real appetite for the game"
Cookie Monster's own thoughts echoed what the Oiler Benchboss had to say; "Cookie!"
No word yet on how the other GM's in the league are taking the news.
