The Edmonton Oilers Are Eyeing Down a Surprising Forward
The Edmonton Oilers are showing interest in forward Adam Henrique from the Anaheim Ducks, as reported by Allan Mitchell.
Mitchell notes that Henrique could be an attractive addition for the Oilers. Henrique plays a significant portion (35 percent) of his five-on-five time against top-tier opponents. His possession stats relative to teammates are impressive across the board, including against elite opponents. Despite a seemingly low expected goal share (45.4 percent), Henrique's performance shines, ranking first among Ducks centers.
Henrique, with one season remaining on his contract, is a pending unrestricted free agent. The Oilers are weighing the potential benefits of adding him to their roster.
