If the Oilers are still interested in EK65 I hope he's included in any deal

I think that ship has sailed. Oilers would be best served to find a 2nd pairing upgrade on Ceci this summer.

I suppose. But, one never knows. I found it encouraging that EK65 agreed to waive to play in Edmonton
 
Reminds me of Dylan Guenther. Big righty with elite skill and decent skating but a certain lack of a motor. For the amount of points he scores he's surprisingly invisible. Sometimes you don't notice him for entire periods or even games. I think eventually he's gonna be a scorer in the NHL as well but it's difficult to project how much time he's gonna need to get there.
 
Interesting that this is only his 3rd season in NA but he speaks better English than Malkin

Yes but the only withdrew recently and all the franchises basically re-branded to something with the same menu items just called something different. So they may have a McFlurry variant.
 
All that hype and it hasn't worked for him in the AHL. Not even .5PPG in his second AHL season.

Yet another Russian forward who goes the NA route and busts. I'm shocked.

I feel bad for the Oilers. A wasted pick. These NHL teams need to stop picking these kids. Make them go undrafted and then we'll stop seeing them cross the pond so early.

He had a solid hot streak not all that long ago. The odds of him panning out are against him but I wouldn't write him off just yet.

Pretty sure we’re not lamenting the waste of a 6th round pick, the fact that Petrov is already at where he is today, is more than most 6th rounders.

And the story ain’t over with him yet.

He was the first pick in the CHL import draft. Twice a 90 point scorer in the CHL. Go read the prior pages of this thread.

A lot more was expected of him by a lot of people.
