Nice! Just posted 20-25 minutes ago in the other thread that this was the 2 player I wanted to sign. I’m sure it will be a performance based contract.

Could be the move that finally doesn't put them over the top.

He was injured a lot of last season. I'm guessing they get him for 2ish

I guess you hope that he can leach points off McDavid and Draisaitl but he is a very mediocre (and that is being kind) player.

Not sure why Oiler fans are excited about the move but I guess with the cap issues they have to have a very low bar.

Depending on the price, could be a low risk signing by the Oilers
