On today’s episode of Locked On Oilers:

Why Frederic’s usage in Boston limited his production

What the stats actually say about his impact

How he could fit alongside Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in Edmonton

Why GM Stan Bowman believes this deal could pay off

Is there more upside here than we first thought? Let’s break it down.

10:14 Game Time app sponsorship and ticket deals

15:20 Frederic's shot metrics and defensive value

24:13 Frederic's potential for offensive production

28:49 Conclusion: Frederic could be useful player
