With his new salary expected to be above $2 million, the Oilers face a challenging cap situation and must consider signing Ryan McLeod.
Unfortunately, a fan favorite may need to leave, and rumors suggest that the New York Rangers may be interested in acquiring Bjugstad's services.
However, other teams such as the Seattle Kraken, Calgary Flames, and his former team, the Arizona Coyotes, may also be eager to bring him back due to their available cap space.
Despite the difficult decisions that players and management must make, Bjugstad's accomplishments this season make him a valuable asset for any team.
