Hockey Night in Canada‘s Nick Kypreos spoke on Edmonton’s woes and discussed Ryan Strome’s performance and how that could potentially turn into yet another trade.
“The fact remains they’re disappointed in the Ryan Strome for Jordan Eberle deal. I think they’re not married to even keeping Strome if they can move him. I think they probably would. The question is: Would he bring anything in return of significance? But no question it’s a priority for Peter Chiarelli to find some scoring on the right side.” – Nick Kypreos, Hockey Night in Canada
The Oilers traded Eberle to the Islanders in exchange for Strome in June, days before the start of free agency.
