Colton Dach, a 23-year-old power forward, joins the Edmonton Oilers from the Chicago Blackhawks, bringing bottom-six potential. Drafted 62nd overall in 2021, Dach has played 78 NHL games, scoring 5 goals and 16 points. Despite injuries and pandemic-related setbacks in the WHL, Dach bounced back strong, scoring 29 goals in 61 games and helping Seattle Thunderbirds win the 2023 championship. Standing at 64 and 218 lbs, Dach is versatile, playing wing or center, and led Chicago in hits. Hes a smart playmaker, threading no-look passes, and has improved his board work.
