Seems weird as they got Brad Malone. Why not just have him play 4th line

idk but I am all for more toughness as sometimes it is really obvious the Oilers are to easy to play against and I am pretty sure they are near the bottom of the league in hits pre game

Friedman at the intermission says Oilers are looking for a forward who has some edge, grinder type. Feeling out there since Evander Kane went down they're a little easy to play against.

Idk to me why not try the guy whose already in the system then look

As Malone is a tough guy who can slot in 4th line

Try it out and if it works then no need to do anything. If not k go make a trade

Also Zach Sanford was on waivers if they wanted a tough guy he would have been an interesting add

well Malone has been in the lineup for the past 3 games so maybe they were trying it out and maybe they aren't happy so far
