Oilers Eye Penguins Castoff Coming Off Career-Best Season

Edmonton is hunting for depth scoring in free agency, and they've zeroed in on a former Pittsburgh forward who just posted the best numbers of his career. The Oilers' front office sees an opportunity to add a proven commodity at a reasonable price point while the player is riding high from a breakout year. This is the kind of move that separates contenders from pretenders - finding value in the market when a player's stock is rising but before the market fully corrects.
