Absolutely, he's been struggling in that department as well.
Trade for a winger to go on the second line and you'd have 2 decent top 6 lines. I am looking at you Toffoli.

It would be somewhat hilarious to watch the Oilers media throng defending a trade for Toffoli to bolster the second line after seeing them pooh-pooh the suggestion that we could have used Hall. Especially if we gave up something significant to get him...

Yeah, I feel it’s Pageau or bust in their minds and that giving up a 1st for the elusive 3C is of greater benefit.

If there's one thing the Edmonton sports-writers like, it's a third or fourth-liner done good. The grinders always get greater praise here than the ones who actually put points on the board. Look how often Spector has talked about issues with the top end of the terrible rosters and questioned their commitment or care level or attention to details, etc. while giving a free pass to the depth that never contributes at all other than the occasional hit, and the management that assembled that depth. It goes back years and years here. It's not much different than the love of the gritty shot-blocker like Russell, compared to the disdain for a silky puck-moving defenceman like a Petry or Poti...
