Oilers agree.
We have to start making a few moves to position us better to compete in the future. This deal allows us to add multiple picks. Weal was a FA signing this year, but has long been on our radar as a Kings prospect. Hopefully, they free him in Philly and give him a chance. VandeVelde was a little tougher to give up, as he is productive (40 pts) and has LW eligibility. Sure seems like Edmonton in FNHL is where wingers go to die, because I have had the worst luck with them.
