The Edmonton Oilers are reportedly still in on multiple players including, but not limited to - Jordan Eberle, Tyler Toffoli, Pavel Buchnevich, and Jake Guentzel.
They were also in on two players who have already been traded - Anthony Mantha and Vladimir Tarasenko.
Multiple reports are coming out right now that the Oilers are closing in on a trade that would bring Adam Henrique and Sam Carrick to Edmonton.
It looks like there are multiple moving parts to this deal. Salary retention is involved as well as a third team (to retain even more salary).
