Should Oilers Lock Up Savoie Now | Edmonton Oilers News

Should the Oilers lock up Matt Savoie now or wait? With cap space looking healthier and Savoie potentially a top-six steal at 5.5–6M/A for six years, the team weighs securing him before he hits UFA—especially if he plays with McDavid or Draisaitl. But skeptics argue his market value will be clear by next summer if he hits 45–50 points, and rushing could cost them. Meanwhile, veteran Mattias Janmark’s future is uncertain—his trade value is low, he’s likely to be on waivers, and his post-surgery performance remains a gamble. The decision hinges on whether the Oilers believe in Savoie’s immediate impact and long-term upside. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
