Équipe: 2015-16 Oilers d'Edmonton

Date de création initiale: 13 juin 2015

Publié: 13 juin 2015

Mode - plafond salarial: Basique

Breakdown of trades:

Edmonton gets a much needed addition to their defense core and the Predators get their much needed potential number 1 centre as well as a defenseman who can contribute immediately on their bottom pairing.

Oilers gets their second needed top 4 defenseman and the Devils get a decent centre prospect as well as a high pick to replenish their prospect pool.


Miller waives to Edmonton for an opportunity at a starting job and the Canucks get much needed cap space and a defenseman they can flip for additional cap space.

Oilers get their potential long term solution in goal and the Senators get the high pick and forward prospect with upside that Murray is seeking.

Scrivens becomes a redundant piece so he moves to the Islanders to fill their backup vacancy.

Oilers end up with 2 million retained on Nikitin deal .

I considered adding a depth forward in free agency but didn't feel it was worth it to overpay for a guy like Soderberg, this way allows flexibility for additional adds mid season or to pick up a depth forward on the cheap later in free agency or to claim a player off waivers at the beginning of the season.

With the loss of Draisaitl and Miller forward call ups become thin but felt the moves were necessary for both the short and long term success of the team.
