Darnell Nurse, Oilers May Be Nearing a Summer Split

The Oilers and Darnell Nurse are being discussed like a team and player that may be heading for a summer divorce, and that is never a casual conversation in this league. When a big contract, a noisy rumor mill, and an offseason window all line up, front offices usually start looking at every lever on the board. Edmonton has to weigh what Nurse still brings against what a reshaped roster might need, and that is where the real bite of this story lives.
