As the Edmonton Oilers continue to navigate the aftermath of the Darnell Nurse trade, a pressing question looms: which contract will become the biggest headache for the team? The recent deal, which sent Nurse to the Philadelphia Flyers, frees up significant cap space for the Oilers, but it also leaves them with a number of key contracts that will need to be addressed in the coming months. With a roster that is already flush with talent, the Oilers will need to carefully manage their cap space to avoid overspending and maintain a competitive edge in the NHL. As the team looks to bolster its lineup through free agency and trades, one contract in particular stands out as a potential problem: the lengthy and lucrative deal signed by defenseman Evan Bouchard, who is just 23 years old and has yet to reach his full potential.
