Prospect Info: Oilers Rookie at the Penticton Young Stars Classic

[FlameChampion]

Might be the worst Oilers game I have ever watched lol. That was brutal.

About the easiest shutout you will ever see.

Fire Chaulk

I was just about to say "well it doesn't look good for the guy behind the bench then"

 

[McDoused]

The Oilers need to expand their amateur scouting and try and find those gems because our depth looks atrocious.

It's not like Vancouver is icing a bunch of Allstars either though. Really concerned that Chaulk doesn't know what he's doing when literally everyone looks bad.

Idk I mean honestly - do you even really want to have the coaching staff wasting time on that stuff in rookie camp?

None of the guys that are going to make the NHL will play that same role in these games.

Day made the game look better

 

[McFlash97]

Lack of basic hockey sense by these guys look to be at an all time high. Never seen our rookie class getting dummied like this. Bad coach too. Guy starts Savoie on the W and puts a 2nd round rookie as his C. Idiot.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

Day, Nicholl, Clattenburg and Lajoie showed some good flashes. That's about it. Savoie didn't stand out nearly as much as he should've IMO. Onto the next couple of games.

 

[Coffee]

Day looks like Binnington, very talented goalie

 

[FlameChampion]

Fire Chaulk

I don’t really want to call him out but it just feels like he stagnates offensive play. Based more on his time with Bakersfield. I think hes a bad coach for player development. Guess we will see what Bakersfield does this year.

 

[McTonyBrar]

Nathan Day was the Oilers standout. Marrelli has potential. Wanner was the Oilers best Dman.

One player who caught my eye and was good and very smart in the third period was William Nicholl. First 2 periods, he overpassed the puck a lot

 

[On The Prowl]

It starts with the horrific D we brought. Is that honestly the best we could recruit? Big and slow and cant make a pass. On the bright side Day is better than I expected.

Wanner looked like crap dude.

 

[Jimmi McJenkins]

Not great, but some people showed some decent things. Meh. I think they'll look better with another practice and a better blueline.

Really liked Nathan Day, I think there might be a player here, though he'll take some developing.

 

[RipsADrive]

Well at least we've got the NHL team.

Looked glacially slow out there.

 

[Behind Enemy Lines]

These games are meaningless. Need to look for moments within players and not results. Pretty dominant game by Canucks. Little to no offensive chances for Oil and leaky defense against Canuckles skill.

Day looked good. Some flashes from Wakely. Consistent physical game by Clattenberg. Little to nothing from Oil skill prospects Savoie, Stefan, Petrov. Thought Lajoie looked soft on his late penalty getting worked over by Canucks Finnish player.

This will be about finding bottom roster projectable pieces for the big team.

Not sure how it's an indictment on Chaulk. He's spent a few days with a bunch of undrafted major junior players, most of whom look like they won't make it even to the AHL going forward. He's not going to work miracles and turn them into a cohesive and effective unit in such a short time.

Marelli was terrible defensively. Burned badly quite consistently along with his partner.

I don't like Chaulk personally, but I agree with this as well.
It's pretty much a tournament for shits and giggles for young players anyways.

 

[Heavy Dee]

Pre season or not. These guys are absolute stank. Terrible cast of players. No one can read a play offensively at all. Savoie also pretty wack this game. Just floating around all game. Hopefully this is not the norm for this guy.

Concerning when Carl Berglund is your best forward.

 

[McMozesmadness]

I’ve been watching this tournament for 11 years now and that was easily the worst game I’ve seen from an Oilers prospect team

He had Savoie on the W beside a rook opening faceoff.

Bad coach.

 

[FlameChampion]

Marelli was terrible defensively. Burned badly quite consistently along with his partner.

Marelli was 84? He was woof bad tonight. Whole defense was completely awful. Team in general couldn’t win a puck battle, make a pass or recover a puck.

Least you can kind of see Wanners combination of size and skating. About only positive I saw. He wasn’t good either though.

 

[McAsuno]

Best of 9 now between Canucks and Oilers.
McDavid and Draisaitl were invisible. #TradeThemAll
