Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Distributes three assists
Viktor Arvidsson notched three assists, including one on the power play, in Friday's 4-0 win over the Penguins.Despite consistent top-six minutes, Arvidsson's Edmonton Oilers tenure got off to a silent start -- he had no points over his first seven games with the team. The 31-year-old got on the scoresheet Friday, helping out on tallies by Leon Draisaitl, Evan Bouchard and Mattias Ekholm. Arvidsson has added 15 shots on net, four hits, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over eight appearances. He's topped the 50-point mark in three of his 10 NHL campaigns, and a top-six role in Edmonton is a good spot to pick up offense, but Arvidsson is still working on chemistry with his new teammates.

Oilers' Viktor Arvidsson: Agrees to potentially bargain deal
Viktor Arvidsson signed a two-year, $8 million contract with the Edmonton Oilers on Monday, per Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet.That's a potentially fantastic deal for Edmonton. Arvidsson was limited to 18 regular-season contests in 2023-24 due to injury, but he recorded a respectable six goals and 15 points with the Kings when healthy. The 31-year-old has surpassed the 60-point mark twice in his career and finished the 2022-23 campaign with 26 goals and 59 points across 77 outings. Provided Arvidsson can stay relatively healthy, he should be a great addition to Edmonton's top six and benefit from typically playing with one of Connor McDavid or Leon Draisaitl. That said, Arvidsson is unlikely to crack the top power-play unit.
