Edmonton Oilers Trade Targets: Mike Green

Heading into 2017-18, the Oilers are likely sticking to the same blue line that they had last season. Considering this defence carried them to fourth in the Western Conference, as well as to the playoffs for the first time in 11 years, there isn’t a lot of concern when it comes to the blue line.

However, there are some question marks. With Andrej Sekera injured to start the year, the Oilers lose a significant puck-mover on the blueliner. In addition, Kris Russell will likely take his spot on the second-pairing left-side, leaving a vacancy open on the top four.
