Edmonton Oilers\u00a0<\/p>\n
General manager Stan Bowman said the Oilers are likely done dealing following the acquisition of Dickinson and\u00a0Dach in a trade with the\u00a0Blackhawks for\u00a0Mangiapane and a conditional first-round pick in the 2027 NHL Draft on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Edmonton also acquired Murphy from Chicago for a second-round pick in the 2028 NHL Draft on Tuesday.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI would imagine that we\u2019re done, I don\u2019t expect to make other moves,\u201d Bowman said Thursday. \u201cPart of our job is to see what\u2019s out there, but if I\u2019m looking at where we\u2019re at, I think any further addition wouldn\u2019t be a significant one, if it is, it\u2019s in a depth role. Something that made sense, certainly we would look at it, but likely I would say this is our team.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Edmonton (30-24-8) is third in the Pacific Division, three points behind the Anaheim Ducks and four back of the Vegas Golden Knights.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The Oilers next host the Carolina Hurricanes at Rogers Place on Friday (9 p.m. ET; SNW, FDSNSO).\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bowman said this was a unique season leading up to the deadline with the trade freeze during the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026, the implementation of a salary cap in the Stanley Cup Playoffs and the limited number of contracts where teams were able to retain salary.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThere wasn\u2019t a lot of games from the restart of the Olympics and the deadline,\u201d Bowman said. \u201cI think some teams were deciding, are they going to sell or are they going to buy, based on a few games.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI could be proven wrong tomorrow, but I don\u2019t think there will end up being as many trades, maybe quantity-wise as there was and it\u2019s probably due to those (factors).\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Edmonton Oilers\u00a0 General manager Stan Bowman said the Oilers are likely done dealing following the acquisition of Dickinson…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":521060,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[556],"tags":[64,63,575,85],"class_list":["post-521059","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nhl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-nhl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/521059","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=521059"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/521059\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/521060"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=521059"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=521059"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=521059"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
