We now know when John Klingberg is set to make his debut with the Edmonton Oilers!

According to insider Bob Stauffer, Klingberg will debut this Wednesday when the Oilers will face the Detroit Red Wings.

John Klingberg signed with Edmonton two weeks ago after months of skating with a junior team to prepare for his return in the NHL.

The former Star has shown very good in practice and is moving smoothly and he is now looking to contribute to his new team.

He was known for his elite offensive skills since Klingberg had accumulated 412 points in 633 career NHL games and at his peak, he was one of the league's top offensive defensemen.

However, recent seasons have been less consistent and if he can go back to his previous form remains to be seen.

The Oilers took a calculated risk with Klingberg by signing him to a one-year deal worth $1.7 million and this low-cost addition allows Edmonton to evaluate his impact before deciding if they are signing him long-term or if they have to trade.

Klingberg's debut comes at a very good time as the Oilers aim to solidify their blue line for a playoff push in the second half of the season.

If the Swedish defenseman can find his game, Edmonton may have found a solution to their biggest need without doing a trade and giving assets to another team.

The hockey world will watch closely to see if Klingberg can reestablish himself as a top-four defenseman.

With his debut set against Detroit, fans and analysts cannot wait to see if this gamble pays off.
