The Edmonton Oilers did not make any major trades this past season at the trade deadline, and while it did not cost them directly, one would have to think that if they had a little extra help in the bottom six maybe their season would have ended differently.
The series against the Winnipeg Jets was close. While the Oilers might have been predicted as winners at the deadline a month ago, I am not so sure anymore. The Oilers’ big trade deadline deal was to add Dmitry Kulikov to the team.
