All things considered, the trade deadline Stan Bowman and company delivered for the Oilers looks good at first blush.

NHL Trade Deadline has come and gone after months of rumor and speculation. Deadline Day itself was a chaotic affair with multiple big moves. However, there were also some major moves before March 7th.

The arrival of Walman fixes Edmonton's biggest priority ahead of the deadline, reported to be the addition of a defenseman. It gives the Oilers a versatile option for their top four, joining Evan Bouchard, Mattias Ekholm, and Darnell Nurse.
