According to Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman, the Edmonton Oilers made a serious bid for one of the top player on the trade market.

We're talking about San Jose Sharks' winger Timo Meier. Although Meier was eventually traded to the New Jersey Devils, the Oilers reportedly made an offer for the forward ahead of the deadline.

Here's Friedman full declaration:

«To me, one of the most facinating things is the Edmonton Oilers made a legitimate pitch for Timo Meier. Now obviously, it didn't happen. He was traded to the New Jersey Devils, but the Oilers did take a long look into it. From what I understand, they made an offer. They were looking at it like ‘we'll bring him in and figure everything out in the summer after the season.' But they wanted him for the playoffs. I thought it was a really interesting idea.

I think Calgary looked at it too, but they were more interested in it too if they could sign him. But Edmonton, Jeff, was willing to do it and just let this play out down the road.»
