Kane could be a huge "trade deadline" addition to the team if he comes back fully healed and in the mood.

I miss the Vinny Skinny Winny celebrations.
In other news - the Wild have claimed Oilers left-shot defenseman Travis Dermott off waivers.

Better him than a rotating door of defencemen who all have a first name that start with the Letter "T." The devil that you know.......

Really? We know he can’t handle playoff hockey maybe someone else can do better.

First win in Minnesota since 2019, and a big one at that!
No reason for the Oilers to bring Vinny back, I'd be open to it if Vancouver retained 50% to bring his cap hit down to $1 million but they will probably find a new home for him without having to do that. Vinny was good on the PK and was starting to use his size and reach well but he was slow and had practically no ability to move the puck, Emberson is a better fit in Knoblauch's system.
The Oilers should still be looking for another top 4 defensemen, Kulak has done an excellent job at playing the 2nd pairing with Nurse despite being on his off-side but ideally thats not what you want to enter the playoffs with.
Ekholm-Bouchard
Nurse-?
Kulak-Emberson
Stecher
Fill that ? with a quality player and that is a very cup worthy defensive core

Alec Regula shoots right, and he's 6' 4" (211 pounds).

Another solid win against a very tough team. Both Skinners were on this afternoon and nice to see more folks contributing.
