Prospect Info: 2024/25 Oilers Prospect Thread

[CycloneSweep]

O’Reilly about to fetch us Savard

Jokes aside he really has elevated his game

 

[Soli]

lol.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

lol.

If he makes the NHL like I suspect he will, he'll become well known by the DOPS. Guy plays with an edge and plays right on the line and sometimes goes beyond that line. Definitely the kind of guy that you'd rather have on your team than playing against you.

 

[Soli]

Sam O'Reilly goal and an assist.





Will Nicholl had this assist the game previous.



Brady Stonehouse counting the days until his OHL season ends.

 

[belair]

Stonehouse having a rather unimpressive OA season.

 

[Soli]

Sam O'Reilly with two assists.

 

[Jumptheshark]

The more I read on line about Eemil Vinni the more I am thinking that the oilers gambled too high on the guy. Due to his back injuries and an operation right before the draft.

 

[Soli]

Sam O'Reilly goal & a pair of assists.

Connor Clattenburg with a face-off win assist.

 

[McDNicks17]

Interesting week for Samuel Jonsson.

Had a 14 save shutout and then a loss with 4 goals against on 16 shots.

17-6-0, 1.88 GAA, .922 SV%.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

For those that follow the OHL, are any of our prospects teams likely not making the playoffs and possibilities for PTO's with Bako?

I think all the prospects are going to make the playoffs.

Flint will probably get bounced in the 1st though. Clattenburg would make sense for a PTO. Not sure about Day.

Barrie is pretty good, so probably won't see Wakely/Akey for a bit.

London is pretty much a lock for the Memorial Cup.

Day doesn't have the greatest stats but I wouldn't mind him getting a chance to at least practice with Bako.

Clattenburg is signed. No need for pto

Stonehouse is not making the playoffs. A number of college prospects will be out in a matter of days as well though

That's right, thanks!

Sam O'Reilly with another hat trick.

Beau Akey PP goal.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

Seniors Game for Munzenberger and Maata featuring another beating 6-1 by BU. Listed as 1st pair D, Munzenberger finishes with a -1 on-ice for a PK and EV goal against. Highlights suggest neither his fault. #9 Boston University Skates Past Vermont in Regular Season Finale - University of Vermont Athletics

Vermont ends another bad season (11-20-3, 6-16-2 Hockey East Conference) with single game playoff format match Wednesday against the six-seed and 16th ranked UMass Minutemen.

Guess we'll see if there's a hockey future within the threadbare Oilers system.

Sam O'Reilly is a plus 52, first on the team for forwards.

Second is a plus 44 and third is plus 33.

Plus/minus can be fairly useless when used out of context, but I think it says something when comparing players on the same team and when there is such a big difference.

Is there any chance management is thinking O'Reilly could crack the big club next season? His offence isn't at the level of other 19 year olds that have made the Oilers, but my understanding is that O'Reilly is known for his mature two-way game, which is why they targeted him.

He might manage to hold his head above water, but if he doesn't get offensive minutes his game will stagnate.

Let him go back to London next year and properly obliterate the competition.
