Oilers Need The Right Deal

from Terry Jones of the Edmonton Sun,

To me, hitting the home run for Katz would be finding a first-rate scoring star the likes of, oh, say Rick Nash to complement Ales Hemsky as the gifted playmaker heads into the prime-time years of his career.

I’m not saying that you could do that deal, specifically.

But the Oilers have a pretty good stockpile of assets that they could put on the table to get a guy who would make Hemsky complete.

If you offered up Shawn Horcoff and Joni Pitkanen from column A, and Raffi Torres and Robbie Schremp from column B, for example, shouldn’t you be able to acquire a pretty good player to be Hemsky’s first-line soul- mate here?

Pitkanen, clearly, is about to be moved.
