Summary
The Oilers pulled off a bold summer overhaul after a tough season, trading Darnell Nurse to clear cap space and reload with savvy signings. GM Stan Bowman landed key pieces: Ryan Shea, a puck-moving defenseman on a 4M deal to boost penalty kill; Kasperi Kapanen, a speedy forward on a 2.6M one-year deal who thrives with linemates; Mathieu Joseph, a defensive-minded veteran for $1M to strengthen the fourth line; and Frederik Andersen, a proven goalie on a low-risk, one-year contract to stabilize netminding. Every move was designed to maximize value, avoid bad contracts, and build a deeper, more playoff-ready roster.
