Brewin Flames Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Coyotes acquire F Kassian, three picks from Oilers The Edmonton Oilers are sending forward Zack Kassian, the No. 29 pick in the 2022 NHL Draft, a 2024 third-round pick and a 2025 second-round pick to the Arizona Coyotes in exchange for the No. 32 selection in 2022. MONTREAL — The Edmonton Oilers have dealt bruising forward Zack Kassian to the Arizona Coyotes. The deal also saw the Oilers send the No. 29 pick in Thursday's NHL entry draft to the Coyotes, as well as a 2024 third-round selection and 2025 second-round pick. Edmonton acquired the No. 32 pick in this year's draft and shed Kassian's US$3.5-million salary. There are two years left on his current contract. Kassian, 31, played seven seasons with the Oilers and last year registered 19 points (six goals, 13 assists) and 63 penalty minutes in 58 regular-season games. He added another four points (two goals, two assists) and 12 penalty minutes in 16 playoff appearances. Edmonton finished the regular season second in the Pacific Division with a 49-27-6 record and went on to make a deep playoff run before being swept in the Western Conference semifinal by the Colorado Avalanche.

JR Ewing Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Considering that the Oilers didn't have to buy him out (which I thought was likely) or retain salary, I'm pretty happy with the deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, but NOW, your Oilers have to audition a new cement head to take his place! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
