[Rumour] UPD: Swedish UFA LW Joakim Nygard has chosen the Edmonton Oilers

More easy depth matchups vs the oil with a 26 year old with no small ice game experience that will surely get big club minutes.

I get what you're saying but maroon did well as an oiler, especially as the ducks were paying 25% of his salary.

I dont see we have any reason to be upset. He seems like he has the potential of a decent 3rd liner as of right now. Makes sense that the Oilers are going to play him on the top 2 lines.

Welcome to the NHL Joakim!

Yet, he's still doing much better on the Blues. Even if they didn't burn out in Edmonton, players still love putting that dump in their rearview.
