Oilers lock up Ebs.
36 million over 6 years. So a very similar contract to Hall's.
Good for them, their core looks to be in place for a long time to come.

"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.
"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "We're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."
"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "otherwise you wouldn't have come here."

4 forwards who could all conceivably score 30+ goals (even 40+) and average a point per game.
Honestly if you have those four forwards you could ice anyone in the other forward spots and you'd be in very good shape.
Also they could trade any one of those guys for help at defense or goal if they need too. And they'd still have a sickeningly good first line. Having 4 world class forwards is never a bad thing.

They can easily dangle someone Jordan Staal style in the future. They aren't so worried about that. They just need to develop a defence and get a goalie (possibly Dubnyk), and they'll be fine.
Eberle is the best of the bunch so far.

Ebs is that guy everyone wishes they draft late in the first round.
I fully expect him to be the Oil's next captain and a franchise talent.

I think apart from Karlson, Pietrangelo, Stamkos and Doughty I think even atlanta would wish they took Eberle at number 3.
