Join Nick Zararis on this episode of Locked on Oilers for a deep dive onto the state of the Edmonton Oilers going into the heart of the offseason. Nick dives into the improvement of the roster from this time last season, why maneuvering the final touches of the roster is the hardest part of construction and the looming Leon Draisaitl and Evan Bouchard contracts are so important to get right.

You look like Mike Smith and Stuart Skinner merged into one
It looks to me that with this roster, they have one top line and two or three second lines depending on the mix.
IMO we cannot wait until trade deadline to acquire a top 4 RHD. I'm just armchair GM'in here but this would be my plan if I'm JJ. Ceci & Kulak out (+6M) Kane on LTIR (+5.15M), if he doesn't want to, let him know he will be 4th liner or benched for not being a team first player then see if he will waive his no move. Promote Broberg (After signing him and Holloway to 3 yr 2.3 M combined deals) to full time 3rd line LHD, get Stecher going (for now) as 3rd pair RHD Now I have 6M + 400K of LTIR from Kane to go find a bonified top 4 RHD. If I have to, I include Clouder in the deal, TBH I like McLeod but he was horrible for most of the playoffs. I would like to keep him for 1 more season, but he can be a casualty. I also like the idea of Lavoie cracking the roster depending on his camp and pre season.
I'm definitely excited for next season a little more than usual.
New dynasty incoming
