Edmonton Oilers Reportedly Linked to Vezina Trophy-Winning Goalie Following the Surprising Waiver of Jack Campbell
Bruins and Oilers Defying All Expectations Since the Season Started
The seasons for the Oilers and the Bruins began in completely different ways.
Both teams are defying the experts' predictions. The Bruins hold a 10-1-1 record, leading the Atlantic division, while the Oilers find themselves in 7th place in the Pacific with a 2-8-1 record.
The Oilers made a surprising move this afternoon by placing goalie Jack Campbell on waivers.
Suddenly, Ken Holland, Edmonton's President and GM, has a lot of options on his table.
A renowned sportscaster shared a massive trade proposal.
Draisaitl and Ullmark Involved in Blockbuster Trade Scenario Shared by John Buccigross
Anchor John Buccigross proposed a major trade between the Oilers and the Bruins.
On X, while replying to former NHLer and co-host of Spittin' Chiclets Ryan Whitney, he asked him if he'd make this trade:
"Ryan, would you trade Draisaitl and Foegele for...last year's Vezina winner, DeBrusk, Poitras, Lysell, and a 2026 1st-round pick? The Central Registry would approve this proposed trade for cap and roster implications."
That trade would shake the entire hockey world. Splitting up Draisaitl and McDavid, as well as Ullmark and Swayman, two elite duos in the NHL, would change the dynamic of two top contending organizations.
What could complicate things is that Draisaitl, Foegele, and Ullmark will be free agents after the current season, and they'll probably ask for significant raises.
Do you think that deal will happen?
