Should The Edmonton Oilers Consider 1 of These Top 5 FA's Available?
As the 2023 offseason nears August, teams are looking to finalize their rosters with arbitration settlements and last-minute signings. Although the top talents are off the market, five noteworthy players remain available:
Patrice Bergeron: The Boston Bruins legend's future remains uncertain, but he still has much to offer if he chooses to play. Bruins management thought he might retire, but his decision is yet to be confirmed.
Patrick Kane: Recovering from offseason surgery, Kane might start next season as a free agent. Despite last season's slowdown with the Rangers due to injury, he's expected to bounce back and join a contender.
Jonathan Toews: The future hall of famer is also technically a free agent, awaiting an official retirement announcement. If healthy, he's likely to sign and commit to playing next season, with the Oilers or Capitals being potential landing spots.
Vladimir Tarasenko: Contract talks have quieted down, leaving the talented forward in search of a "show me" one-year deal. After a decent season with the Blues and Rangers, he's looking for a fresh start.
Tomas Tatar: Tatar, who collected 48 points with the Devils last season, is still without a team. The Ducks and Predators are among the favorites to sign him to a one-year deal.
As the offseason winds down, expect these players to find new homes and impact their respective teams in the upcoming season.
