Which Oilers UFAs should stay in Edmonton — and who gets walked out the door?

Aaron Bordato and Michael Menzies rank every pending free agent on Oilersnation Happy Hour. 🍺

The guys go deep on the Edmonton Oilers' biggest offseason questions: who deserves a new deal,

who might price themselves out with the "Edmonton tax" working against the front office, and

which role players are quietly essential to the roster. Plus they break down the Oilers' quiet

coaching search, why Peter Laviolette keeps coming up, what the Vegas Golden Knights run means

for the rest of the league, and whether Colorado needs to blow it up.

🏒 Topics covered:

→ Oilers UFA rankings: Conor Murphy, Jason Dickinson & more

→ The "Edmonton tax" — can the Oilers compete for free agents?

→ Coaching search: Laviolette, Babcock impressions & the silence strategy

→ Colorado Avalanche: rebuild or retool?

→ Vegas Golden Knights advance + Mitch Marner thriving post-Toronto
