NHL Rumors: Could Edmonton Oilers’ Championship Hopes Hinge on a Surprising Scoring Upgrade?
The Oilers don’t have their 2026 first-round pick, and would likely have to give up their 2027 first if they trade for a scoring forward.
Mitchell notes: “If the Oilers make a deal at the deadline that blocks Howard, the organization will be repeating the path that led Broberg and Holloway to offer sheets. It will also represent a complete shutout of general manager Stan Bowman’s 2025 summer bets on wingers thought to be possible solutions on the skill lines: Howard, Andrew Mangiapane and Trent Frederic.”
