They didn't have a big body on their line in the last two seasons so that clearly isn't the problem.
The Oilers should be looking for a player like that in their top six, but the lack of one isn't the reason for their 5 on 5 scoring issues when they have shown they can succeed in the past without.

it wasn't a problem because they were playing run and gun hockey in meaningless games...this year they are trying to tighten up a little and maybe win a game or two.
