Nurse is currently listed as a trade target on Daily Faceoff.
Nurse's contract carries a significant price tag of $9.25 million over the next six years. This postseason, the 30-year-old set a league record with a challenging -15 plus-minus rating.
Nurse's output of 10 goals and 32 points across 81 games translates to a cost of $0.29 million per point, considering his hefty $9.25 million cap hit. If Jeff Jackson and the Oilers prioritize optimizing their roster, Nurse might find himself on the trading block.
