Oilers calling up prospects means management admits something’s wrong #NHL

Are the Oilers basically admitting something’s wrong by calling up prospects? 👀

Management turning to the farm team says a LOT about how they feel about the bottom six and this roster right now.

Do you think these call-ups are the right move or just a band-aid fix?

  1. I think you could juggle the lines a bit with what they have.
    Hyman-McDavid-Roslovic
    Podkolzin-Draisaitl-Savoie
    Howard-Nuge-Hutson
    Janmark-Fredric/Henrique-Kapanen

    You could move Kapanen up to Nuge and one of the young guys down to 4 if they can't keep beat with Nuge, but his skill set should compliment their talents nicely if you're looking for possession and offence. If you need more size and defense, then swap up Kapanen or really any of the Fredric/Janmark/Henrique that would be most effective. The biggest issue I have with Nuge being the 3rd line center is he is a left hand shot giving us no right hand faceoffs at least 3 of our lines. But we've never been a major faceoff team and have had this issue for quite a while now.
