From Internet rumors to comments from Peter Chiarelli himself, it looks like the Edmonton Oilers are considering trading away a “core player” for the sake of getting a number one defenseman. But with recent talk, the question surrounds who is most likely on their way out.
That being said, there are three forwards who could very well be dealt by Chiarelli: Taylor Hall, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins and Jordan Eberle. Nail Yakupov is incredibly likely to be traded in the offseason, considering he requested to be moved and the Oilers will likely go through with it.
