Following a strong preseason, Caggiula earned a spot on the opening night roster but had to recover from an injury to start the year. Once he returned, he transitioned easily into a full-time NHL role.
Caggiula was originally going to try and adapt to a role as a third-line centre, and though the 23-year-old wasn’t the worst in the faceoff circle, he adapted to a role on the wing and became a versatile part of the team.
In 60 regular season games with Edmonton, Caggiula scored seven goals and 18 points and was a plus-3.
