Tonight a new report from Alan Mitchell has revealed that the Edmonton Oilers are at risk of losing a pair of players to an offer sheet including star defenseman Evan Bouchard. Last offseason the Edmonton Oilers were stunned when <a href='https://www.nhl.com/news/philip-broberg-dylan-holloway-join-st-louis-edmonton-doesnt-match-offers' class='lien_marqueur' target='_blank' rel='noopener'>Philip Broberg and Dylan Holloway were signed to offer sheets by the St. Louis Blues.</a> Both players accepted those offer sheets and ultimately the Edmonton Oilers did not match the contracts allowing both players to leave. This was seen as a crucial mistake by the Edmonton Oilers organization allowing two young star players to leave without a fair return. Now a report tonight has confirmed that Evan Bouchard and Ty Emberson can potentially end up going through the same process this offseason. <h3>Edmonton Oilers Vulnerable To Yet Another Offer Sheet This Summer</h3> According to a report from Alan Mitchell the Edmonton Oilers are extremely vulnerable to yet another offer sheet this summer if they do not find a contract extension for Bouchard before free agency. Bouchard is eligible for an offer sheet, and the team is vulnerable in that area. The huge increase in cap dollars would seem to reduce the risk of an unmatchable offer for Bouchard, but getting him under contract before the window opens for offer sheets would be a wise move. As Mitchell mentions the Oilers should not have as many issues being tight to the salary cap next season as the cap is expected to go up significantly. While this takes some of the pressure off getting a deal done with Bouchard the longer the Oilers wait the more difficult the situation becomes. Once the trade deadline passes getting Bouchard signed to an extension should be the highest and only priority for Stan Bowman until a deal is done between the two sides. As the situation continues to develop we will pass along the latest news regarding Bouchard's future with the Edmonton Oilers and any news of an extension.
