Nurse Could Fetch A Solid Return If Oilers Move Him

Darnell Nurse is the kind of defenseman who always gets people talking when the rumor mill starts spinning. If Edmonton even puts him on the block, the return would not be the usual spare-parts package, because contending teams pay for size, minutes, and the willingness to live in the fire. That is the part casual fans miss: a player like this can be imperfect and still carry real market value. The Oilers have a decision to make, and the market may be more generous than the criticism.
