Currently, the team is not doing so well after numerous losses against non playoff teams, which isn't a good sign for a team that believes they can win the Stanley Cup.
One thing that would be huge for the team's morale is a big move at the trade deadline. Oilers General Manager Ken Holland is known for making moves last minute and the Oilers have been rumoured to be trying to acquire the best player available at the deadline Chicago Blackhawks star Patrick Kane... but are the Oilers really in need of another forward?
There's also other team's interested in Kane as well but the good news comes from Sportsnet's Hockey Insider Elliotte Friedman who would discuss Kane on the most recent 32 Thoughts podcast saying:
You'll wonder if Kane's decision could come down to playing with his friend and former teammate Duncan Keith who won 3 Stanley Cups together, who is now having a management role in Edmonton, wouldn't it be cool as Vin Diesel would say in the fast and furious movie "One last time."
