So what is the point in keeping a guy who won't be with the team next year taking ice time away from others on the farm. There isn't. I am sure if they could have got rid of manning instead they would have.

IIRC, Manning comes off the books at years end, while Persson is RFA.

He sure does but who's taking Manning?
On the left, Oilers have
Klef
Nurse
Jones
lagesson
Russell
Samorukov
Broberg
On the right, Oilers have
Larson
Bear
Bouchard
Benning
I didn't include a Swede or 2 I think who are right handed who they have to decide on. I think Berglund has to sign a contract to at least be in the AHL or they have to let him go.
Russell is the only guy over 30 and he's probably gone next season. Larson I think it 27. Klef might be 26. Everyone else is 25 and under. Most are 23 and under. Where does Persson fit? On the right he's 5th on he depth chart. Right now with Green he's 6th.
Persson turns 26 in a few weeks. At best he's #5 on the depth chart on the right side. His time it now. So why would you keep him even if he is an RFA. It wouldn't shock me if he quietly aksked to be traded. He would never play for the Oilers.
