Just in case anyone is still not convinced we need a 2nd line C that isn't Arco/Draisaitl, here's some of the top 2 Cs we'll be matched up against in the West
Toews
B Richards
Kopitar
M Richards
Backes
Stastny
Spezza
Seguin
Getzlaf
Kesler
Thornton
Pavelski
Duchene
MacKinnon
RNH/Arco or RNH/Draisaitl doesn't come close to those pairings.
Oiler management and some fans don't consider the opponent when building a roster. As long as the team is better (on paper) than last year's team it's win, win, playoffs, playoffs.
And injuries are never a consideration.
