Rumour: Edmonton Oilers set to Acquire Former Three-Time Stanley Cup Winner Pat Maroon in a Trade to Improve Their Bottom 6

A recent report has surfaced that the Edmonton Oilers are gearing up to trade for this three-time Stanley Cup Champion in order to help turn their season around.

Oilers in Desperation Mode To Try and Turn Season Around

The Edmonton Oilers have continued their struggles despite some drastic measures made by the team, including sending their goaltender down to the minors and firing the head coach.

Despite this, they still struggle, highlighted by their trainwreck loss against the Carolina Hurricanes 6-3. Now, it has been reported that all chips are on the table when it comes to potential trades to turn the season around.

Oilers Will Look at Pat Maroon To Turn Their Season Around

Every GM in the league knows that the Oilers are in a precarious position, and there are no lifelines being handed out. It will be difficult for the Oilers to make a trade for a goaltender or defenseman. However, TSN's Ryan Rishaug believes that they should still go after a forward who has playoff experience.

Enter Pat Maroon. Maroon has been rumoured to be on the trade block this season with the Wild, and he could fit into what they need on their 3rd or 4th line.



It's clear they will have to do something, it just depends on what exactly they are willing to risk and for what in return.
