Confirmed Signing with Link: [EDM] F Viktor Arvidsson signs with the Oilers (2 years, $4M AAV)

Could have something to do with his best play driver being Forsberg when he was in Nashville and no real #1 centre. When you have a McDavid or Draisaitl driving the play it becomes a lot easier to find open ice to score. It's not like Hyman had a resume better than Arvidsson's when he arrived. They're similar high motor players.

Say what you will about Johansen, but he showed up in the playoffs. He was always the best Preds forward in the postseason during the Arvidsson years.

Yeah, they both play hard lol. Play style is massively different, Arvidsson is mostly creating offense off the rush. I already said he'll have a better center and it might work out.
