Oilers Place Adam Erne On Waivers

October 31, 2023 at 1:26 pm CDT | by Gabriel Foley Leave a Comment

The Edmonton Oilers have placed forward Adam Erne on waivers. The 28-year-old has played in six games for Edmonton this season, going without a point and recording one fight. His most recent game with the club was the Heritage Classic against the Calgary Flames.

Erne is on his third NHL club in Edmonton, after splitting seven years between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Detroit Red Wings. He played in 61 games with the Wings last season, netting eight goals and 18 points. It was only two points shy of his career-high of 20 points; a mark he reached in 2018-19 and 2020-21.

Erne played nine AHL games last season, netting no goals and five assists. They were his first AHL games since 2017-18, speaking to the depth role he managed to carve out with his previous clubs. But without a correlating move, it seems the Oilers are transitioning to an 11-forward, seven-defenseman setup, icing Vincent Desharnais in Erne’s place.

Edmonton could also opt to recall a forward in Erne’s absence, as they aren’t currently carrying any healthy scratches. Raphael Lavoie currently leads Edmonton’s AHL affiliate, the Bakersfield Condors, in scoring with seven points in five games. Xavier Bourgault has also had a strong showing through his first five games of the year, nettings four points and a +4 +/-.

Whatever move Edmonton makes following Erne’s assignment will need to be impactful. The team currently sits at a desolate 2-5-1 record, with a slim 22 goals-for on the season. Connor McDavid took a maintenance day at the team’s Tuesday practice and will hope to remain consistent in the lineup, helping alleviate some of Edmonton’s scoring woes.
