With Jack Campbell struggling in the minors, the Oilers are in dire need of goaltending help, and they may have found a solution on the Nashville Predators.

Edmonton Oilers Eyeing Potential Trade with Nashville Predators for Goaltender Prospect Askarov

The Edmonton Oilers are quickly looking to turn their season around, as indicated by their swift moves to fire their head coach and send goaltender Jack Campbell down to the minors for his struggles. Now, it appears the Oilers are going to take another step to turn their season around by trading for a replacement for Campbell.

Reports have surfaced that the Oilers are looking at Nashville goaltender prospect Yaroslav Askarov. Askarov has played the last two seasons in the AHL for the Milwaukee Admirals and is off to a hot start this year with a 1.60 GAA and a .935 save percentage in his first 5 games.

Oilers Could Have High Price to Pay for Askarov From the Nashville Predators

Reports have the price set pretty high when it comes to what it might take for the Oilers to get Askarov. Current reports have the price being Edmonton's first-round pick in 2024 as well as one of their top-end prospects in Xavier Bourgault, Raphael Lavoie, or Matvey Petrov.

This is a steep price to pay for immediate goaltending needs, and begs the question as to whether the Oilers are going all in this season to make a push for the Cup, or if they want to balance their long-term growth.
