The 2024 trade deadline is now one month away, and trade talks and rumors are heating up all across the web as teams continue to posture themselves for a potential deal to help them down the stretch.
The Rangers who have been linked to several centremen throughout the league may be facing stiffer competition for that position as a new team has entered the mix for Adam Henrique.
The high-flying Oilers who recently posted a 16 game-winning streak, has made it clear that they are willing to make a deal or two to help bolster their lineup.
According to NHL digest, it seems they're willing to make a deal for a third line centre to put them over the top.
Secondary scoring for the Oilers has been an issue throughout the season and this could be an option to solve it.
Adam Henrique, is having a great year with one of the worst teams in the league. Over the past 49 games, he has scored 15 goals, with 18 assists for 33 points.
It's safe to say that general manager Chris Drury will need to speed up his process and make his decisions on whether to aggressively buy what he needs or to stand pat.
With the injury to Filip Chytil, I highly doubt he will stand pat and he will get what he needs to try to win this year.
