Claimed off Waivers: [EDM] Oilers re-claim D Travis Dermott off waivers from the Wild

[rynryn]

Who among Ekholm, Nurse, or Kulak do you suggest that Dermott, a LD, play ahead of? He was horrendous on his off side.

It was a good-faith question. I don't follow the Oilers well enough to know how effective your bottom pair has been so thought I'd ask--simply because I thought he looked fine on the Wild for that role I initially assumed he was picked off waivers to give the Oilers options for 6-7 d man instead of straight to the AHL.

EDM claimed him as a free asset for AHL and had no intention of playing him in NHL unless there are injuries
