The Edmonton Oilers have placed forward Sam Gagner on waivers as part of roster adjustments leading up to Deadline Week. The team plans to keep Gagner with the NHL club if he clears waivers, sending him to AHL Bakersfield for cap compliance. Meanwhile, defenseman Zach Bogosian has signed a two-year deal worth $2.5 million with the Minnesota Wild, with the team opting to keep him for the future.
Bogosian deal is two years, $2,5 million total. #mnwild
The Oilers plan to keep Sam Gagner with the NHL club if he clears waivers today. Gagner will be sent to AHL Bakersfield only to remain cap compliant after making pre-deadline additions. They’re looking at a slew of forwards and defencemen. They’re not in goalie market.
Since Zach Bogosian is sticking around for a few more years, thought #mnwild fans would enjoy getting to know him a little better: my trip to Massena, N.Y. and his blue-collar hometown to get a feel for his family, his rise https://t.co/D3X428f7X0
Zach Bogosian is reportedly staying in Minny. 🤝 https://t.co/ZClJ8AN9Wq https://t.co/JkyiM9KB9Y

Two year deal for Bogosian, $1.25 million AAV https://t.co/RqENDNiMtF
This is interesting to me because I didn’t even know Bogosian was with the Wild, but I hope it works out for both sides. https://t.co/0NXq0gQBIo
The Gagner move is interesting, and something I’ve been openly wondering about as to whether they might have Sabres-related interest. https://t.co/otL4M7hF5W
