Edmonton Oilers Should Try Zack Kassian on Top Line

A hitman, a mastermind and a sniper walk into a bar. This may sound like a joke, but really, it could be the solution to the Edmonton Oilers struggles… in a way.

Taylor Hall hasn’t had a point in five games now, and though Leon Draisaitl is still a genius playmaker on that top line, the magic with Teddy Purcell has lost its spark.

The team has tried many different lines in the books. One of their biggest successes was the line of Benoit Pouliot, Connor McDavid and Nail Yakupov.
