interesting theory that is most likely very unrealistic

Jones over Slats and there's no sense in diluting Edmonton's strength up front by running Nuge as the #3C. He's a point-per-game winger, use him as such.

Don't break up Nugent-Hopkins, Draisaitl, Yamamoto. It was the best line in the NHL last year. Plus we have Turris to play center on the third now.

I don't think we put Nuge as 3C unless we need to shake things up in the playoffs, keep him in the top 6 for now

Thanks for the comments all. Really, really excited for the Oilers next season. Ken Holland's signings were all soooo cheap, risk-free, and with such upside that I have to give him an A+.

100% agree that the Dynamite line of Draisaitl, RNH, and Yam fries should stick together. Really it is the Oilers' No. 1 line. Never hurts to be creative though and to try different things every now and then.

Also, how come nobody has pointed out that the thing that the Dynamite line has in common is that all 3 players came from the WHL, a seriously under appreciated league. I wish it was called the "Dub Line" or something.
