Dustin Nielson and Tom Gazzola, two highly respected Edmonton Oilers sports insiders confirm that Travis Dermott will be trying his luck with a PTO. This news was reported on the latest segment of Edmonton Sports Talk yesterday.
Travis Dermott is no stranger to the NHL. He found the bulk of his success playing for the Toronto Maple Leafs from 2017-2022, but has bounced around the league since then.
According to Todd Matthews from Oil on Whyte, If you didn't know, Travis Dermott started his career with the Toronto Maple Leafs, and his performance at even strength was better when you look at the advanced metrics. Through 37 games in 2017-18, Dermott's Corsi For Percentage sat at 55.0 with just 13 on-ice goals allowed and a 95.2 on-ice save percentage.
