Seems decently skilled. Wish there was more video.

Older right shooting center with offensive abilities. I'd like to see the Oilers take a gamble on at least one of these guys every draft in the later rounds if they are available As a serious cup contender now we can afford to do this! I love this pick and he can now go directly to the AHL or ECHL.

Holy Shit

Glad that he's down in the OHL again this season. He needs a strong offseason of training before being a potentially impactful pro.

Maybe. He will be 21 before the season is over, what else can he learn down there?

Better he stay there and have more time to get bigger, stronger and faster than get rushed and spend an entire season in the ECHL IMO. It lets his ELC slide a year (if we've even signed him yet?).

Incorrect. ELC only slide if they are 18-19. He was 20 when we drafted him. We haven’t signed him yet though.
