If it’s not the Oilers who have made the offer (that wasn’t made clear), it puts Edmonton in a bit of a pickle. First, teams are potentially competing with GM Stan Bowman. Second, Ekman-Larsson has to choose Edmonton (which, if he does, would help with hurdle number one). The high asking price from Brad Treliving and Ekman-Larsson’s control over this situation make this anything but a slam dunk deal.
