Oilers Goalie Involved in Massive Proposed Trade by Expert

Ken Holland is entering the final season of his NHL contract as the General Manager of the Edmonton Oilers. He has yet to win the elusive Stanley Cup that the Oilers have been chasing during his tenure.

Now the pressure has been turned up for the team to succeed. Many believe his successor was already lined up until Steve Staois decided to leave the organization recently.

Since the pressure has been turned up by the city of Edmonton and the organization many believe that Ken Holland is looking to make a massive move to save his job,

According to a source at The Athletic goaltender Stuart Skinner could be a part of a massive trade at this year's NHL trade deadline.

The Oilers are also looking for an upgrade in net and one name has been mentioned more than any other. Connor Hellebuyck has been on the trade market for months now. With the Oilers wanting to make a splash and needing good experience in goal Hellebuyck is a natural fit.

Jack Campbell or young goaltender Stuart Skinner would likely be part of any package to acquire Hellebuyck. The Oilers would certainly need to add more to entice the Jets but that would be a starting piece. Other names like Dylan Holloway, Philip Broberg, and Raphael Lavoie could be involved.
