In a surprising move, the Edmonton Oilers have traded away forward Kailer Yamamoto. However, they may have found a clever loophole to bring him back at a more affordable price.

With Yamamoto earning a significant salary, the Oilers orchestrated a trade to the Detroit Red Wings. Subsequently, Detroit bought out his contract, making him a free agent. This strategic move allows the Oilers to re-sign Yamamoto for a much cheaper deal.

The precedent set by the Brooks Orpik situation in 2018 suggests that the Oilers can indeed sign Yamamoto tomorrow. #LetsGoOilers.

Question: Can #LetsGoOilers sign Yamamoto tomorrow?

Answer: Yes, they can.

We've seen this previously with Brooks Orpik:
1. Traded from WSH to COL on June 22, 2018
2. Bought out by COL on June 24, 2018
3. Signed with WSH on July 24, 2018
