New Additions Dach, Dickinson Relish Opportunities with Edmonton Oilers
Edmonton traded Andrew Mangiapane and a conditional 2027 first-round pick for three players, with Chicago retaining half of Dickinson's and Murphy's salaries.
- On March 6, 2026, the Edmonton Oilers acquired Connor Murphy, Jason Dickinson and Colton Dach in two separate deals with the Chicago Blackhawks.
- To address roster gaps, Edmonton pursued a defensive defenceman with size, a third-line centre, and penalty-kill help, acquiring three players after GM Stan Bowman unloaded the $3.6 million mistake Andrew Mangiapane.
- Reports note that Dickinson and Murphy have the Blackhawks retained 50 per cent of Dickinson's US$4.25-million cap hit and half of Murphy's salary, while Dach has three goals and nine points over 53 games.
- With the deadline passed, Edmonton will see Dach make his Oilers debut at Rogers Place on Friday, with his family expected in attendance.
- The next four games will test Edmonton against Carolina, Vegas, Colorado and Dallas, while whether they reach Minnesota or Dallas’ level remains to be seen after GM Stan Bowman offloaded the $3.6 million mistake Andrew Mangiapane.
