## Resource

Edmonton’s defense is getting a major upgrade as they lock down Connor Murphy on a five-year, $20.5M deal—just weeks after signing Jason Dickinson to a $20M pact. Both veterans, acquired from Chicago, helped slash the team’s goals-against average from 3.34 to 2.90 during the regular season, proving their impact. While playoff struggles remain, the front office is clearly prioritizing defense to support McDavid and Draisaitl’s quest for a championship. With a coaching vacancy still open after firing Kris Knoblauch, the Oilers are building toward a title, starting with a rock-solid blue line.
