Penguins Circle Oilers Forward as Free Agency Target

The Penguins are kicking tires on an Oilers forward, and that alone tells you this summer is already getting interesting in Pittsburgh. The fit is not hard to see when a front office starts sniffing around a player before the market fully opens, because these conversations usually say as much about roster holes as they do about the target himself. Edmonton is in the middle of a decision tree too, and when a contender has to juggle cap math, everyone else in the league starts paying attention.
