Stan Bowman Shuts Down Critics | Edmonton Oilers News

Stan Bowman silenced his critics on day one of free agency with bold, savvy moves that reshaped the Oilers’ roster without sacrificing the future. He shed Darnell Nurse’s massive contract to San Jose—netting cap space and assets Zack Sharp and Mukhamadullin—while adding veteran goalie Frederik Andersen and signing defenseman Ryan Shea to a five-year deal. He also acquired prospect Devon Levi for a third-round pick and re-signed key bottom-six forwards Kasperi Kapanen and Max Jones. Though blue-line depth and goaltending remain to be sorted, Bowman checked off every major need, proving he can handle tough contracts and build a competitive team from day one.
