The Florida Panthers [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/florida-panthers] had both in spades when they defeated the Edmonton Oilers [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/edmonton-oilers/] in back-to-back Stanley Cup Finals. With relative newcomer Trent Frederic [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/edmonton-oilers/latest-news/trent-frederic-s-new-oilers-contract-full-breakdown] covering the grit aspect of that equation, it doesn’t hurt to have more talent in your organization.

[https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/edmonton-oilers/community/latest-news/oilers-trade-pitch-for-a-new-goalie] The Boston Bruins [https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/boston-bruins/] prospect is rumored to be trade bait for a deal with the Oilers. With plenty of speculation coming out at this time of the year, this could be nothing. Even if it is, the Oilers should be more than interested. Lysell plays with speed and skill, and his game is similar to Howard’s in that aspect. Lysell recorded only three points in 12 NHL games [https://www.nhl.com/bruins/player/fabian-lysell-8482763] last year. He bounced around the lineup on different line combinations. Lysell primarily spent time playing [https://frozenpool.dobbersports.com/players/fabian-lysell] with Pavel Zacha [https://heavy.com/sports/nhl/boston-bruins/pavel-zacha-trade-pitch-creates-space/] and Marat Khusnutdinov. Lysell spent the last game of the season [https://frozenpool.dobbersports.com/frozenpool_lastgamelines.php?team=BOS] on a line with the two forwards. Even if he doesn’t play in the NHL, the Oilers should roll the dice on Lysell.
