The Edmonton Oilers have rattled off 13 straight victories, and with the addition of Corey Perry, things are only looking up. But does that mean they're done making moves? It appears not.

Edmonton linked to two familiar faces



While the Oilers forward group is one of the best in the NHL led by Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl, it could clearly get better, and now, TSN's Chris Johnston has revealed just who they may target.

According to Johnston, both former Oilers Jordan Eberle and David Perron could be options ahead of the March 8 trade deadline, before throwing out another name that could change the Oilers franchise for good.

Some names he threw out in speculation include Jake Guentzel, David Perron & Jordan Eberle


Another superstar to join the forward ranks?



While Jake Guentzel may not carry the name value of his teammates, he's been one of the most consistent forwards in the NHL, and if Edmonton could pair him up with their star trio, things would be looking even better.

Whether or not they land any of these three stars, it's clear that the Oilers won't settle this year and are looking to make their team much, much better, so keep an eye on Edmonton as they look to chase down the Pacific Division crown and ultimately, a Stanley Cup.
