Edmonton Oilers to trade for hockey's biggest enforcer? Don't rule it out - Edmonton Journal

The Oilers are reportedly in talks to acquire Matt Rempe from the Rangers.

The Edmonton Oilers are looking into a trade for New York Rangers enforcer Matt Rempe. Known for his physical play and reputation as the NHL's most notorious tough guy, Rempe's intimidation factor could bolster the Oilers' roster. However, opinions vary on whether this move would aid the Oilers' current strategy. Multiple sources have linked the Oilers to Rempe, suggesting the team is considering options to strengthen its lineup. Rempe's toughness has been a key part of the Rangers' lineup, and his toughness could be a valuable addition to the Oilers. However, the Oilers will need to weigh the pros and cons of this move before making a decision.
