Most of the D are camp invites.
What are the odds hey? I was just showing my fiancée that last night too.Vincent Desjardins threw me for a quick loop
Leon's got some wingers, finally.
Unless that's Stu just to mess with everyone.
The Dithering caused the opening, they signed these guys because they're good at hockey.I saw some media and fans criticizing the Oilers for signing these guys because it "opened the door" for a Holloway offersheet.
The priority was always Draisaitl. Adding two legit top 6 wingers for him probably played a part in him resigning here.
Both guys came here on deals, which further shows that the organization is committed to winning instead overpaying guys.
Didn’t see it myself, but Gregor was speaking about Lavoie having some great finish and jump during skates.
It bodes well if a few of the younger guys can see realistic openings and try to push for a spot.
I wouldn't mind a nuge-drai-arvidsson lineI think RNH plays better with Draisaitl than McDavid but it’s good that we have options.
I really hope he takes a step and pushes an older player off the roster.
Captains skates are silly. Was hoping the players would have learned and used the time to rest up as much as possible for another long season and playoffs. For sure this year with the short offseason not sure why they are doing this. My first thought was what if somebody gets hurt. Then Arvidsson dummying McDavid. jebus.
ftr Arvie is like a magician of running into his own players on ice. Fortunately he's not as bulky as Puljujarvi..
I know we all want some hockey action but I can wait. Want the players rested and healthy to start season this time.

So you’d rather they show up to camp not in shape?Captains skates are silly.

Not every team went all the way to the SC final 7th game. The Oilers were still bone tired in July with having played the entire month of June. The players essentially have had two months off. Not close to enough to repair from rigors of the last 110game season. It really was the shortest Oilers offseason in franchise history.So you’d rather they show up to camp not in shape?
Every team does this
It’s a good thing these are optionalNot every team went all the way to the SC final 7th game. The Oilers were still bone tired in July with having played the entire month of June.

Optional as 18 or more players being on the ice today. Easier to list the starters that are not there.It’s a good thing these are optional
It sucks they signed Perry. Lavoie is ready. Dude will hit, fight and score. Just needs a chance.Didn’t see it myself, but Gregor was speaking about Lavoie having some great finish and jump during skates.

I'm ok with Captain Skates but last season the vets got minimal pre-season action and were not ready out of the gate. Woodcroft wasted pre-seasonCaptains skates are silly.

It was interesting to hear Drai's comments yesterday about how he might have liked another 3 weeks in the gym to work on things. It will be very interesting to see how the short offseason affects the players for sureCaptains skates are silly.

Not worried about informal pre-camp skates. Lots of new faces and a chance to build the personal connections and some on ice chemistry tests as well. McDavid clearly has identified flaws in his hard push last summer and as a team have full understanding of the energy reserve required to play maximum number of NHL playoff games.Optional as 18 or more players being on the ice today. Easier to list the starters that are not there.
Don't kid yourself soon as these start theres pressure to be there.
