EDMONTON -- Good things come to those who wait. 

Edmonton Oilers fans have been waiting since the summer for the possiblity to see newcomer Matt Savoie in action with the NHL club. It looks like that might happen sooner rather than later. 

According to head coach Kris Knoblauch, Savoie will see game action on the upcoming five-game road trip.

Savoie has been at two straight practices for the Oilers. During the last practice he was seen flanking Leon Draisaitl.

Is that the best fit for him? Who do you think should be centering Savoie? Vote in the poll to let me know.
