Erne agreed to terms on a one-year, two-way contract with Edmonton on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Erne came into the season on a professional tryout with the Oilers but was released before Opening Night only to sign a few days later. While the winger's deal is two-way in nature, it seems he will start on the 23-man NHL roster in a bottom-six role.

Erne finished the season with eight goals and 10 assists through 61 games.
EDGE Analysis
Erne wasn't involved on the power play in his fourth season with the Wings, but he averaged 1:37 on the penalty kill and amassed a career-high 55 blocked shots to go with 160 hits. Still, it wasn't the smoothest campaign for the American winger, as he was waived in February and returned to the AHL for the first time in five years, appearing in nine games for the Griffins. The 27-year-old is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer.

Erne hasn't played since Monday, as he's been rendered a healthy scratch the past two games.
EDGE Analysis
Erne is losing playing time to Jonatan Berggren, a rookie who's being utilized on the No. 2 power-play unit. However, established winger Tyler Bertuzzi can't seem to stay healthy this campaign -- most recently, he left Thursday's game with a lower-body injury as a precaution -- and Erne is a logical choice to step in as necessary for Saturday's clash with the Flyers.

Erne scored in Saturday's 6-3 loss to the Senators.
EDGE Analysis
Erne has points in back-to-back games as he continues to be a sneaky third-line producer. His current shooting percentage (16.7) is a career-best mark, but the limiting factors are that he's averaging only one shot per game and is disassociated from the power play.
