The Oilers' current offseason plans certainly will be interesting to watch. With the disappointing loss in the second round to the Vegas Golden Knights after having a great second half and going down the stretch, the team currently has four unrestricted free agents and three restricted free agents to contend with.
According to capfriendly.com, the team has a projected $5.97 million in cap space. He has 17 players on the roster. It will make general manager Ken Hollands' job difficult to find a way to ice a team of 23 players with such little cap room.
The 23-year-old centre just completed his $2.5 million contract and held a cap hit of $834,167. He played 57 games, scored eleven goals with 12 assists for 23 points and was a + 4. He also held 18 penalty minutes. During this year's playoffs, he had five assists in 12 games.
