How is Brad Malone still in the league? Interesting.

Woodcroft wanting his guy as an NHL option, Malone was the Condors captain

 

[BonMorrison]

Damn he old now

 

[The Nuge]

Makes sense. It’s his 5th year in the organization, most of which was spent under our new coach, and he’s having a good season

I mean, he's not, really. But he's in the AHL and doing well there.

 

[izzy]

this is one of the rare players where im shocked they arent older

 

[GirardSpinorama]

Cool. Former Avs pick that I had hoped would do well in the NHL. Glad to see him getting another shot in the big leagues.

 

[Larry Hanson]

Seriously though, he fills an AHL role.

 

[NewtJorden]

I'm shock at the fact he's only 32

 

[Pizza!Pizza!]

his older brother was a relief pitcher for the red sox in the 70s

 

[McDNicks17]

He was rumoured to be getting a contract a few weeks ago because the Oilers PKers have been trash for the last couple of months.

Not sure he sees a call-up for a while though.

I love a comeback story.

 

[Right Wing]

Maybe he’s a good captain and the new coach trust him to come up to the big club and lead by example. Not what they are getting out of their current one

Ya, but then he went blackface and it ruined his career.

 

[EdmFlyersfan]

Oilers just getting stronger and more unbeatable every day...

 

[Mr Positive]

This is a symbolic move. Malone could also be good. But, its interesting how players like him always got passed over by Tippett, while he had endless patience for the veterans who were his guys. Woodcroft will likely have some more time for players on the Condors

 

[4BlindMice]

Goaltenders take longer to develop

 

[DingDongCharlie]

Goaltenders take longer to develop

I’ll say. We’re still developing Koskinen

I feel this is only positive. Reward the guy who was a leader for your minor league team. I'm sure young guys like McLeod will love seeing familiar faces like this. It's just good vibes all around.

Why do I get Zack Kassian vibes when I look at the picture in OP?

I see it too. But a ginger Kassian.

 

[yzerman]

[Islay1989]

I love a comeback story.

Everyone does, Seabiscuit, Mighty Ducks, Robert Downey Jr, Rocky ...
