The Edmonton Oilers have been training since September, since the team is all in this season. As Leon Draisaitl acknowledged in his recent interview, their window for winning a Stanley Cup might be closing in the next few years if they do not succeed.
The team acquired Connor Brown on a bargain contract during the off-season and since then, Brown and Connor McDavid, a former Eerie Otters teammate, have been reunited.
There has been some experimentation with putting Evander Kane on the same line as these two, and so far, it seems as though the new top line for the Oilers is clicking.
