With the Edmonton Oilers losing in the second round of the NHL Playoffs, they need to find a way to upgrade their team.
Edmonton Oilers Need To Win Now
There is no more “just make the Playoffs” attitude in the City of Edmonton anymore. The fans are expecting this team to go on a very deep run this year. In my opinion, anything but a Cup final appearance is going to be looked at as a failure. In order to get better the Oilers need to improve their roster.
Free agency is under a month away. While the Edmonton Oilers have minimal money to spend to get better. Here are 3 players I would like to see in an Oilers jersey.
Jonathan Toews
The Edmonton Oilers have been searching for a player to bring leadership and championship experience to their team. Jonathan Toews could be the perfect fit for this role. Although there is a high chance he might be retiring, it would be nice to see him in a depth role on the Edmonton Oilers.
Toews is a skilled center with over 1,000 career NHL games under his belt. He has won three Stanley Cups with the Chicago Blackhawks and has been a key contributor to their success over the years. His leadership and winning mentality are highly sought after in the NHL, and I think the Edmonton Oilers would be lucky to have him.
In addition to his leadership qualities, Toews is a reliable presence on the ice. He excels in both offensive and defensive roles and is known for his ability to make plays happen. He is a strong skater with excellent vision and a knack for finding his teammates in scoring positions. His defensive abilities are equally impressive, as he is able to anticipate the opposition’s moves and disrupt their plays.
If the Oilers were to sign Toews, they would be getting a player who could help elevate their game to new heights. He would bring a winning mentality to the locker room and serve as a mentor. He would also provide a much-needed boost to the team’s depth center position, which is in need of
Overall, signing Jonathan Toews would be a major coup for the Edmonton Oilers. He would bring leadership, championship experience, and a high level of skill to the team. With him on board, the Oilers would be much closer to contending for a Stanley Cup.
