Currie signed a one-year, two-way pact with Pittsburgh on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Currie saw action in 21 games for Edmonton last season, nothing two goals, three helpers and 19 shots. With the organization also adding Evan Rodrigues and Mark Jankowski via free agency, Currie figures to start the year in the minors with AHL Wilkes-Barre/Scranton but should sit atop the list of potential call-ups.

The Oilers reassigned Currie to AHL Bakersfield on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Currie will round out his rookie campaign in the minors after compiling five points over 21 games in his first-ever stretch with the big club. With Bakersfield headed to the postseason, Currie should have some bonus hockey on the schedule before calling it a season. His showing at the top level was encouraging, but it doesn't align the 26-year-old as anything more than a depth forward in future seasons.

Currie recorded an assist and two hits over 6:36 of ice time in Thursday's 4-1 win over Columbus.
EDGE Analysis
Currie earned the assist on a short pass along the boards to Joe Gambardella, who then sent a backhanded pass to Kyle Brodziak, who was able to beat Joonas Korpisalo for the score. The point marks the first for Currie since scoring a goal against the Blue Jackets on March 2. The Canadian now has five points through 15 games this season.

Currie was called up from AHL Bakersfield on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Currie has yet to play a game in the NHL but has been a force in the minors, scoring 24 goals and adding 13 assists in 49 games with the Condors in 2018-19. He likely won't have to wait very long to get an opportunity to prove himself at the top level. The Oilers' next game comes Tuesday at home against Arizona.
