Related Topics: David Rundblad, Edmonton Oilers

The Edmonton Oilers are still in need of upgrades to their defensive corps, preferably on the right side. Now, a new free agent has appeared on the market int he form of David Rundblad, who came to mutual terms with the Chicago Blackhawks and terminated his contract on Tuesday.

The 6-foot-2, 187-pound defenseman is a righty, which is probably one of his biggest pros when it comes to joining the Oilers. He possesses strong defensive metrics, as well as five years experience in the NHL. Rundblad won a Stanley Cup with Chicago in 2014-15, and has high praise for his offensive and defensive ability, especially in his scouting report.
