Per The Puckin' Around Podcast, the Edmonton Oilers could potentially show interest in Columbus Blue Jackets captain Boone Jenner as the trade deadline gets closer.
The Edmonton Oilers have gone to consecutive Stanley Cup Finals and lost both times to the Florida Panthers, and following the second loss last year, they lost several members of their team.
Gone were the likes of Corey Perry, Jeff Skinner, Viktor Arvidsson, and Evander Kane, but the team could be looking to make some more veteran additions like they did at the deadline last year when they acquired Trent Frederic and Max Jones.
