In Dickinson, the Oilers are gaining an excellent two-way forward who should excel in a shutdown role and finally fill Edmonton's third-line-centre void.

The Georgetown, Ontario native won't need to worry about obtaining a work visa and could make his Oilers debut as soon as Friday when they host the Hurricanes.
