*Conditions: Edmonton receives the 2022 7th round pick if Joel Persson plays 25 games in the NHL in the 2020-21 season (prorated to 17 games due to the shortened season).
Result: Condition not met, Anaheim retains the 7th round pick
Like why - can somebody tell me why either team felt the need to do this
Likely Persson didn't want to resign if the Oilers aren't giving him NHL time. Send him for somethig, why not? Only reason not to is to give your AHL team more of a chance at competing, but he also takes ice time away from other prospects.
