As you can see from the list above, the Edmonton Oilers have had quite a few new players inserted into the lineup at one point or another so far this year. That includes four rookies, a PTO signing, and two ex-Oilers who’ve returned for another kick at the can with Edmonton.
From a traditional stats point of view, I’d say that Alex Chiasson and Toby Rieder are having acceptable seasons so far. Chiasson is on pace to score 38 goals!!! I don’t think it’s going to happen mind you, but that is very good considering that he was signed off of a professional tryout agreement.
