Oilers Place Forward Andrew Mangiapane on Waivers
- On Sunday, the Edmonton Oilers placed forward Andrew Mangiapane and defenceman Alec Regula on waivers, the NHL club announced.
- After a disappointing season, 29-year-old winger signed last summer to a two-year, US$7.2 million deal but produced 14 points in 52 games and a career-worst minus-19 rating.
- Placing Regula, a 6-foot-4 defenceman, gives other teams the opportunity to claim him without surrendering assets, as he has played 29 games this season.
- If Regula clears waivers, the Oilers can assign him back to Bakersfield, though another club could claim the 25-year-old defenseman, signaling potential trade activity.
- Facing roster gaps and cap limits, the Edmonton Oilers waived Andrew Mangiapane and Alec Regula as they aim to address trade needs after losing five of six games, including to the San Jose Sharks on Feb. 28.
