What is the end-behavior asymptote for f(x)=(x^2+4x-5)/(x-2) ?

There is an oblique asymptote at y=x+6 and a vertical asymptote at x=2. Is one of those the end-behavior asymptote?

You are right to have those two asymptotes.

What happens at the far right and the far left ?
it approaches positive and negative infinity?
