interesting....why do you say that? admittedly I don't watch the most Oilers games but you think you need another center?
Thanks for taking the time to respond.
1) Oilers desperately need a RHC for draws, they don’t have a good one (Ryan) but he’s barely an NHL player any longer.
2) Size, Dach is a huge kid, Oilers have a size and aggression problem, Dach solves this.
3) Potential, Dach has been progressing the correct way, I see him as a full time number 2C or a RW the greatest attribute a centre has is the ability to play wing.
4) He PK’s in fact he’s on Chicago number 1 unit.
5) He’s from Edmonton, he’s more apt to hang around ( people underestimate the importance of this)
Add on - Dach has offensive potential, Oilers could centre him between Hyman & RNH and that line would be terrible to play against. - Need a goal, throw him on with Draisaitl & Kane and that’s a lot of angry beef beef coming at you.
I’m a big fan of Dach, at the very least you get a different perspective & you see why Debrincat isn’t the guy, Dach fills more rolls the Oilers need.
Those are just off the top of my head, I’m sure I could come up with more.
