One Of The Best Trade Deadline Acquisitions In Recent History?
Nhl edmonton oilers vs vegas golden knights without connor mcdavid still ended up in a rout. We touch on the golden knights vs oilers highlights and the big nights for zach hyman leon draisaitl dylan holloway a bit, but focus on what I consider to be an nhl trade that continues to be absolutely massive for edmonton oilers highlights and franchise heading into the nhl playoffs 2024 . For continued coverage of nhl highlights today , news and rumors (we covered the arizona coyotes relocation moving story in the last video), and maybe various nhl news today like how the connor mcdavid injury is nothing to worry about, predictions rankings picks and the eventual oilers knights playoff series.

If you don't "put too much stake in plus/minus", you also don't understand the game of hockey. Trash analyst.
The last time you made an oilers video was back when they were 2-9-1, so we need more oilers videos!!
Saw the highlight on nhl app, That slapshot from Ekholm was insane.
Nurse should take lessons from Ekholm on how to defend a 2-on-1, and how to take a man in fromt of the net instead of screening the goalie trying to block shots in the crease. And stop flopping to the ice in an effort to take away the pass. That works less than 50% of the time, and takes you out of the play 100% of the time.
Ekholm may end up being the boost to that D core that wins them the cup. Im not positive still, im not sure they have THAT guy as their number 1 like a Keith in Chicago, Hedman in Tampa or Makar in Colorado
Nurse is a liability to say the least.
Sorry, it’s Zach Whitecloud not Charlie Whitecloud… 😂 all good tho
plus minus is a stat that doesn't matter until it get silly in either direction. +43 in one season is a silly number
💯 Agreed on all points😊
Totally agree
I'd still take Barrie over Nurse
people who say mcdavid is the sole meaningful player on the oilers just dont really know what theyre talking about, or much about hockey honestly. its really not the "mcdavid show" as much as it used to be, and its definitely nothing compared to whats happening with my man Nikita Kucherov. lines without mcdavid have produced extremely well, and we have multiple players who work so hard to keep the game going and create plays and opportunities without mcdavid around to work his magic.
Good analysis
Did i hear Charlie Whitecloud, or am i trippin?
He's their Jake Muzzin
He’s a beast!
Charlie Whitecloud?!?!😂😂ummm
Wut about perry
Arturri lehkonen was traded to the avs in 22 and proceeded to score the western conference clinching goal and stanley cup clinching goal…
He's easily my pick for best trade deadline pick up for the last 15 years!
Not!!!!
If you average out Nurse's contract with Ekholm, Bouchard and Ceci it seems like a pretty reasonable price for a top four. Obviously this has some copium in it because when Bouchard and Draisaitl run out in two years, and Ekholm runs out in three, it's going to look REAL bad. I don't think they can trade Nurse for equal value, so he's in there for the next seven years. Not to mention needing to negotiate McLeod, Holloway and Foegle too. I don''t know much about their prospect pool, but it's been THIN for picks recently, so I don't feel like anyone's coming up to make a big impact anytime soon, including Broberg.
People that say the Oilers are a one-man team are very delusional and ignorant.
Not to mention, Bouchard also has the fastest slapshots this season by a landslot.
