Kicking off yet another theme week here at Oil on Whyte, the theme this week is "records" and what better record to start with than one held by an unlikely goaltender in team history.
The 2013-14 season was yet another season spent in the basement of the NHL standings for the Edmonton Oilers. The team had done work to inject talent onto the roster in recent years with three straight First Overall picks between 2010 and 2012 as well as some acquisitions to insulate their budding team.
David Perron was acquired for Oilers former top prospect Magnus Paajarvi as a big addition to their top six.
