Joseph’s Defense Could Be Oilers’ Secret Weapon | Edmonton Oilers News
Description
The Oilers quietly landed Mathieu Joseph on a one-year, $1M deal — a depth winger who didn’t score last season but quietly shines defensively. Advanced stats reveal he’s elite at preventing scoring chances, ranking in the 92nd percentile for even-strength defense. His speed and relentless forechecking help clear the puck and pressure opponents, making him a solid penalty killer too. While his offense is limited, his defensive impact could stabilize the Oilers’ bottom six — a low-risk, high-reward move with serious upside.
