Oilers make head-scratching move after Quinn Hutson call up
Fans are immediately wondering why the Oilers are even bothering if they’re not going to put Hutson in a position to succeed.
The Edmonton Oilers made a transaction early Monday morning that they are hoping can help with their secondary scoring.
Tristan Jarry is a fine NHL goaltender, having a good year. He went 9-3-1 with a 2.66 GAA and .909 save percentage through 14 games with the Panguins. Those numbers matter, and they're a big reason why the Edmonton Oilers traded for him.
In a recent article for The Score, John Matisz mentioned the Oilers as a top potential landing spot for Buffalo Sabres star winger Alex Tuch. The other team Matisz argued could be a good trade destination for Tuch was the Carolina Hurricanes.
