Cody Ceci thrived in a top-pairing role under Jay Woodcroft and Dave Manson, but can he sustain this level of play over a full season?
It’s quite evident that the Edmonton Oilers markedly improved ever since their coaching change. In early February, the team sat outside a playoff spot under Dave Tippett and Jim Playfair.

Road to Nowhere
Graph via Puck IQ The Oilers would have given significant riches for a player like Warren Foegele (as he currently plays) in the fall of 2015. That kind of winger, young and with some skill, would have been a solid third-line player behind Taylor Hall and David Perron on left wing.
