Former NHL Coach Praises Edmonton Oilers Offseason Additions

The Edmonton Oilers made multiple additions to their lineup that should help them again compete for the Stanley Cup.

The Edmonton Oilers clawed their way back from down three games to none in the Staley Cup Final to force a Game 7. Despite falling just short of making history, the Oilers spent their offseason making big adds to their lineup in hopes of returning as a stronger club.

Skinner isn’t far removed from an 82-point season and could flirt with that kind of pace again playing with Leon Draisaitl. Arvidsson missed most of 2023-24 due to a back injury, but he should enter the new season with the intention of finding his usual scoring pace. “I like that Edmonton didn’t sit back,” Boudreau said. “We’re going to make a lot of changes, and we’re going to get better.”August 12, 2024

While Skinner and Arvidsson will add to the offense at the NHL level, the Oilers also gave some attention to their future. In a trade with the Buffalo Sabres, the Oilers added one of the top prospects in the NHL in Matthew Savoie.
