from Robert Tychkowski of the Edmonton Sun,
Normally it isn’t wise to make a trade for the sake of making a trade, but if the Oilers don’t get it going in the next few days, then Kevin Lowe, or Steve Tambellini, or Daryl Katz, or whoever’s holding the keys to the lemon currently parked near the bottom of the Western Conference standings needs to send somebody packing.
Give them the three games Edmonton plays during the Dec. 20-27 NHL roster freeze and if they aren’t an entirely different team when it’s over, then somebody’s gotta go.
Somebody significant. The core of leaders here isn’t delivering on the ice and doesn’t seem to be leading this young team to anything but mediocrity.
So if the Oilers are still in need of a shakeup on Dec. 28, they should start by shaking loose a veteran, or two.
