"Vegas Golden Knights select Trevor Connelly, and we automatically place him on LTIR."

Would be fitting. LTIR f***ery is the only reason they have that pick still.

Each time I get down not having a 1st round pick. I immediately feel better realizing we have Beau Akey waiting in the wings.

The only issue is he has missed like the entire year. It’s insanely hard for prospects to miss arguably one of their biggest development years.

 

[TheNumber4]

Boston got their big 1C. Now they can f*** right off on the Drai front.

 

[FlameChampion]

Robitaille loooks olddd. Losing 3 times to the Oilers turned his hair white.

 

[TheNumber4]

Flames fans? Is this necessary?

 

[McDoused]

Flames fans? Is this necessary?

All four of them.

 

[TheNumber4]

All four of them.

"they traveled long and hard to get here"

Vegas is like a 3 hr flight lol.

 

[SupremeTeam16]

Montreal got lucky with Demidov falling to them.

Of course with a young KHL talent like that you have to be worried about all the males in his family voluntarily enlisting in the Russian army if he comes to NA.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

I'm no expert on these kids, but it feels like reaches from everywhere

 

[Paralyzer]

Oilers made a trade for Philly's pick per Reneau Lavoie

LOTS of speculation it's a BIG trade

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

WTF we’re picking?!

 

[Oilers88]

We traded for a pick? Didn't see that coming

 

[CupofOil]

Uhhh. The Oilers traded a future 1st for this pick. It must be somebody they REALLY like in that case. Fascinating

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

Maxim Masse?

 

[TheNumber4]

HOLY f*** WERE IN THE 1ST ROUDN!!!!!!

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Let's go, lol.

I was really hoping Nurse'd name was going to be the return

 

[Pass the Saitl Sauce]

Uhhh. The Oilers traded a future 1st for this pick. It must be somebody they REALLY like in that case. Fascinating

oilers pick will be 32nd next 2 years anyways

 

[CupofOil]

Sam O'Reilly. Somebody tell me how to feel!!!!

 

[Ruok]

Don't like the trade only because it means our trade deadline might be limited.

Two firsts get tied up with the conditions

 

[CupofOil]

oilers pick will be 32nd next 2 years anyways

I'm fine with it, I'm just not used to the Oilers being so proactive haha. The Jeff Jackson era is officially here.

 

[sepHF]

did not see that coming, welcome Sam!!!

 

[Oilers88]

Trading a future trade deadline asset for the final pick in a mediocre draft doesn't feel very smart.

 

[NotAVacuumSalesman]

Sam O'Reilly. Somebody tell me how to feel!!!!

“Chris Ford of Smaht Scouting reports that O'Reilly is a good middle-six centre who is a great defensive centre, a common sentiment among scouts. Despite his age, he was relied upon to take faceoffs and penalty kills for the Knights, an impressive role for such a young player.”

Did a quick search since I didn’t check scouting report on him.
