2024/25 Oilers Prospect Thread

[BarDownBobo]

I'm really interested to see how Beau Akey's game translates when he turns pro next year. He's a really quiet prospect who could be a dark horse to make the Oilers in short order.

His game is really tidy defensively. Great gaps, a good stick and foot speed that really stands out. I dont think he'll be a big point getter, but his passing is solid.

It’s too bad he missed almost an entire year with the injury, I think he would’ve pushed for a spot this year if he had been healthy. I’m with you though, he plays a pro style that should translate really well. He reminds me a lot of TJ Brodie and could be the perfect type of player to pair with Nurse.

Nicholl really gives me McLeod vibes with his style of play, and that is absolutely a compliment for a 7th rd pick.

Fast skater, but faster at avoiding contact? Yikes.

Sad to see Zach Laing's news about Jervantie. I missed when he reported this.

Oilers prospect Roby Jarventie reportedly leaving organization to play in Finland

And just like that, as mysteriously as he arrived, he was gone. <!-...

LOL even more at Tyler Wright and Ken Holland. Drafted a bust in Bourgault whom gets traded for another disappointment player who's off to the Euro leagues.

Great drafting shown by the Holland regime. Utter dog shit.

It turns out Munzenberger now has the most value lol

It's too bad we couldn't get Cossa. I believe that's who Holland wanted to draft

Wyatt Johnston would've been okay too :/

I remember seeing awhile ago that Paul Coffey who also coached Wyatt Johnston for 4 years was upset with the Oilers when they didn't draft him. Dallas ended up consulting Coffey about Wyatt before drafting him. Us? Traded down just to get a bust in Bourgault. Absolutely pathetic from Tyler Wright who's drafting resume is as good as Dustin Schwartz being a goalie coach.
