Chris Nichols of Nichols on Hockey: Elliotte Friedman on Sportsnet 960 after Ryan Rishaug tweeted that Edmonton Oilers were going hard after a forward and could offer up their first-round pick, a goaltender and maybe a young forward.
“Look, from a hockey point of view it makes no sense for the Oilers to do this. But from a business point of view, you see why this kind of stuff happens. I think the Oilers should just play it out and see where it goes. I think this is a risk of being a really, really poor outcome for them.
