It’s been a hectic week writing about potential moves that the Edmonton Oilers could make but that hasn’t stopped my mind from coming up with more. It’s been more than a decade since the Oilers were a consistently good team and thus this exercise is one that has taken place every off-season more or less.
The rumor de jour is Leon Draisaitl and Darnell Nurse for Oliver Ekman-Larsson.
Oscar Klefbom and the #10 OV in this year’s draft for Rasmus Ristolainen is a much better trade for the Oilers than that one because it would offer the Oilers defense some balance and the team has more than enough left-handed defensemen to cover.
