The Edmonton Oilers and Zack Kassian’s Descent

Edmonton Oilers: It hurt to type those words. Me, like many other Oilers fans, fell in love with Zack Kassian when he was acquired from Montreal for Ben Scrivens. After overcoming a substance abuse problem, Kassian made his Oilers debut January 14, 2016, in a 2-1 shootout loss to the San Jose Sharks. Even though he did not record any points in that game, he showed off his tenacity, speed, and aggressiveness that quickly transformed him into a fan favorite.
