Kurt Leavins of the Edmonton Journal: Have been hearing that the Edmonton Oilers won’t have the salary cap space to bring back pending UFA defenseman Tyson Barrie if Oscar Klefbom returns from injury. Believe that they may be subjective as they’ll have almost $30 million in projected salary cap space. The bigger question is how will GM Ken Holland want to spend their space. Could the Oilers re-sign Barrie for three years at $5 million per?
Do the Oilers protect Oscar Klefbom for the expansion draft and potentially lose one of Ethan Bear, Caleb Jones or William Lagesson?
