Kris Russell is set to re-signs with the @EdmontonOilers in the next 24-48 hours. 4 years/$18M with a full NMC is what I'm told. #Oilers


Edit - appears to be a scout for the Surrey Eagles, not sure how connected he would be.
I understand why Russell would want a NMC but surprised he could command one, particularly at that AAV. I don't think his bargaining position is that strong. If true, Oilers getting a bad deal.
