Utilizing the Team Chemistry of the Edmonton Oilers for the upcoming season
With the new acquisitions to the team changing, a considerable aspect of the squad of players for the Edmonton Oilers will take shape regarding which aspect complements the other—for instance, the addition of Jeff Skinner and how he is a Ryan Nugent-Hopkins type of forward. I will explain the comparisons of the players on the roster and how they will contribute and affect the chemistry level of the Edmonton Oilers team in general.
The Edmonton Oilers depth is secure, and the main aspect of the team is how will the chemistry of the squad take shape
The Edmonton Oilers New Look is a refreshing site for forwards destined to play is a challenging, gritty game each night during the regular season. It defines the aspect of an improved squad, with players with similar types of gameplay and comparisons attached to their arsenal. With these comparisons, the Oilers squad will demonstrate what a solid playoff team will look like and how they will play the game of NHL hockey to their advantage.
The comparisons are ideal in general because of the implications they bring to the table. Hopefully, a few more tweaks to the team will help eliminate the costly mistakes made in the playoffs this past season, even though it was a heck of a run that took the City of Edmonton by storm.
Speaking the first-line of the OIlers
The three returning players on the Oiler's top line are Ryan Nugent-Hopkins on the right wing, captain Connor McDavid in center, and sensation Zach Hyman on the left wing. This particular lineup has multiple implications for the team.
The first is the leadership aspect, which is the most significant part of the team's core needs and values. If the younger core of players are given the opportunity to play alongside players who struggled last year, the first line is going to be called upon to provide the heart and soul to the goal-scoring aspect of the game.
Not to mention that the first line will be looked upon to lead the players in the most challenging times of the season and bring the maturity that the players are building to the respective gameplay. It will be vital for the forwards to take charge and give them the confidence to lead the way.
The additions of Jeff Skinner and Victor Arvidson are a good veteran pick-ups for the organization
The edition of Jeff Skinner, who I said has a similar gameplay to forward Nugent-Hopkins, is a quality forward to take charge on the second line. He will complement forward/center Leon Draisaitl's game with quick looks and surely slick passing. Skinner's on-ice awareness, especially around the net, is a shift that would help Draisaitl play a solid game overall.
Leon Draisaitl's game will undoubtedly be the same and powerful as usual. His two new linemates will attempt to bring out the best of him in most games, with a somewhat shifting performance slated to dominate against teams in the NHL.
Victor Arvidson is a classy veteran forward who will redefine the new look for the Edmonton Oilers roster and be the most significant pick-up the team made this season. His addition brings in a sharpshooter for goal-scoring ability because of him and his linemates on his line. He will provide ample offense, including forcing turnovers and scoring goals in an aggravating manner toward the opposing teams. It's a feat quite similar to Corey Perry's game.
The additions of Corey Perry and Adam Henrique
Adam Henrique played a solid round of playoff hockey and was in great shape to lead the team in game-winning situations. Which was a rewarding moment for the Oilers fanbase when he agreed to re-sign with Edmonton to help bring the city a cup. His role will be more forwarded with special responsibilities that will help guide younger generations and be more supportive of the team's first line.
Corey Perry is a player that every team adores because of his physical, challenging, gritty game and scoring ability, which are complemented by his presence around the net. This is similar to Evander Kane's gameplay, which the Oilers management should resign. Both would be a vital asset to the team's need to make the opposing team's goaltending a nightmare to defend against.
The third and fourth of the Edmonton Oilers look is a re-polished version of vet presence and goal-scoring touches that will complement the physical aspect of the team's need and also bring in more toughness to the squad.
The chemistry will be that the team works as a dominating combined unit to take charge in games against the best in the league and also come up with wins that will define the solid foundation built by Ken Holland but to be led by Stan Bowman, who deserves a second chance, in my opinion?
