Should the Edmonton Oilers steal from their rival?
The Edmonton Oilers are currently dominating the series under the guidance of Jay Woodcroft, following their victory in the Battle of Alberta.
As predicted, the Calgary Flames have undergone a significant transition since Darryl Sutter's departure, resulting in the departure of many veteran players, including Tyler Toffoli.
Not to throw another log onto the fire for #Flames, but the potential exodus continues.
I'm told Tyler Toffoli also plans on not re-signing in Calgary.
Further to the reports on Tyler Toffoli, it sounds like the player is looking for a trade out of Calgary. The belief is he's not approaching the situation with a desired destination and will keep an open mind.
Despite his impressive performance in a challenging season under a subpar coach, Toffoli is now available and highly sought after as a top-six scorer for any team.
Edmonton's top target should be Toffoli but it'll never happen
With 34 goals and 39 assists in 82 games, he proved his worth with a total of 73 points on a mediocre team. However, his $4.5 million cap hit for the 2023-2024 season may pose a challenge for the Oilers.
Ken Holland will need to make strategic moves to manage the budget and secure Toffoli for the team.
