## Resource

Edmonton Oilers grappling with early camp injuries, sparking buzz around a risky but intriguing target: Alex Formenton. The speedy Swiss winger, last seen in the NHL with Ottawa, could bring急需 depth — especially up front — but his past legal troubles cast a long shadow. While some insiders see him as a low-risk gamble with skating and PK chops, the Oilers’ fanbase may not be ready to welcome him back. Alternatives are on the table, including younger free agents, as the team weighs speed, chemistry, and controversy.
