Evan Bouchard 24, RHD, 2 years @ $3.9 Million AAV then RFA, 4-13-17 in 17 games
-"High Event" defenseman
Karel Vejmelka G 2 years @ $2.75 Million AAV, 3.18 GAA .901 SV% over 10 games (ouch)
-Not as good as last year, might lose starting role to Ingram
Oilers 3rd round pick 2023 (Traded for Zack Kassian)
Oilers 2nd round pick 2024 (Traded for Zack Kassian)
Arizona gets the best player in the trade and have a ton of draft picks so won't miss these. Bouchard is currently a PPG player but is struggling defensively. Arizona does not have anyone under contact on D next season.
Vejmelka is also struggling but is better than anyone the Oilers have in net right now.
Oilers get some draft picks back and a million in cap space to facilitate another, *bigger* trade.
