Beck is one of the hottest players in the AHL right now and leads the league with 30 points and 21 assists in 19 games. He’s also a plus-11 and has been one of Bakersfield’s biggest assets this season.
Edmonton signed Beck to a one-year, two-way deal days into free agency to give them more winger depth down the lineup. Last season, the 25-year-old posted 17 goals and 34 points in 50 AHL games with Bridgeport and San Antonio.
With Beck in the lineup, the Oilers will hopefully get more of an offensive push, all while rewarding a player who has defied expectations in the minor leagues.
