[Edmonton, AB] The BRHL season 4 is unofficially underway with day one of the preseason completed. The Edmonton Oilers will play it's first preseason game tomorrow against the New York Rangers with a powerful lineup.
Nikolai Khabibulin and Dan Heatley were with the team last season. Mike Modano signed as a free agent and Sergei Fedorov came in an offseason trade with the Dallas Stars. Are the Oilers going after another superstar for a team already stacked?
There is indications that the Oilers and another western conference team are in the process of making a rather significant deal that could bolster the already deep Oiler roster. No one in the Oiler camp is speaking of any potential trade, however an insider close to one of the Oilers executives stated that a deal is imminent. It is still unclear on what any potential deal is, except that it would be a 'vast improvement' as stated by the insider. More will be known in the coming days.
