Yesterday was an exciting day for Oil Country with the news that Leon Draisaitl was staying. The Edmonton Oilers superstar forward signed a new 8-year extension with an average annual value of $14 million, making him the highest paid player in the NHL. It was the final deal the Oilers needed to get done this summer so now the focus turns to training camp.
With the news Tyson Barrie was signing a professional tryout with the Calgary Flames, after being linked with a rumoured return back to Edmonton, who should the Oilers look to target for camp? There&#8217;s been speculation on Justin Schultz and Kevin Shattenkirk but do they need to bring in a right handed defenceman or should they look somewhere else?
You can leave your questions, comments and concerns in the Greta Bar YEG YouTube live chat throughout the program. Tyler Yaremchuk and Liam Horrobin strongly encourage you to interact with them and the other Nation Citizens in the YouTube live chat.
Later in the show, Tyler and Liam will give Ryan Nugent-Hopkins his player grade for the regular season and playoffs. Nugent-Hopkins took a step back after a 100 point season but still managed to score close to 70 points in 80 games. In the post season, the Nuge was close to a point per game player, which was a big reason why Edmonton made the Stanley Cup Final.
