Oilers' Drake Caggiula: Notches two helpers in losing effort

Caggiula put up two assists -- one on the power play -- in Tuesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Sabres.

Analysis:

He saw a season-high 17:42 of ice time, much of it alongside premium talent -- Caggiula's helpers came on goals by Jordan Eberle and Milan Lucic, with Connor McDavid and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins joining him in the assist column. It's unclear what the rationale was and whether the improved circumstances will continue, but Caggiula was an excellent college player and merits some attention on the waiver wire (at least in deeper formats) as a short-term add with upside.
