Oilers' Kyle Brodziak: Goal drought drags on

Brodziak may struggle to reach the 10-goal mark for the sixth time in the last seven years. Once a 20-goal scorer with Minnesota, the center has failed to produce at that level with St. Louis or Edmonton. With a minimal cap hit ($1.15 million) and changes likely coming for the Oilers, the 34-year-old could find himself on the move ahead of the trade deadline.

Oilers' Kyle Brodziak: Snipes twice including winner

Brodziak isn't known as an offensive star -- he hadn't gotten a point in 11 games prior to this outburst. Plus he only saw 12:05 of ice time Saturday, the second-lowest of the Oilers' forwards. Still, Brodziak was a dominant force on the ice. Nice night, but it's just a moment in time. He's more valuable on the ice as a penalty killer than he is in fantasy.

Oilers' Kyle Brodziak: Minutes crunch

The 34-year-old veteran is averaging 9:23 of ice time to this point in the season and has posted a minus-5 rating through 10 games. Brodziak put up 33 points just last season but has failed to follow it up, having whiffed out of the gate to begin 2018-19.

Oilers' Kyle Brodziak: Joining Edmonton on two-year deal

The 34-year-old center is coming off a strong season with St. Louis, netting 10 goals and 33 points in 81 games. Brodziak will provide some needed depth for Edmonton, likely centering a bottom-six line behind Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl. Drafted by the Oilers in the seventh round of the 2003 NHL Draft, the 6-foot-2 Brodziak scored 26 goals and 59 points in 175 games during his first run with Edmonton.

Blues' Kyle Brodziak: Could take talents back to Edmonton

Brodziak reportedly has narrowed down his list of potential suitors to three, but a reunion tour with the Oilers could be particularly appealing to him since he's from Edmonton. He appeared in 81 games with the Blues last year, proceeding to register 10 goals, 23 assists and a career-best 52.1-percent win rate in faceoffs. There's probably value in taking Brodziak with a late-round fantasy pick this fall, but be forewarned that he's cemented in a bottom-six role, where it's generally difficult to stay productive offensively.
