Definately Schremp with the Oilers along with Stastny (although Statsny didn't play in the first game due to injury, he looked great in the rookie camp)
- Fredrik Pettersson and Viatcheslav Trukhno, both selected by the Oilers this year, have exceptional puck-handling skills and scoring ability. Trukhno is poised to break out in the Q this year, and Pettersson was drafted by the hitmen in the import draft. I expect big things from both this season.
- Agree with Shremp looking good. He has been scoring goals, which is what will get him on the team, even if only for a 10 game stint before returning to london. He has the best shot to make the Oilers IMO.
- Matt Greene has an outside chance, but will most likely play the season in Hamilton with the odd call up if the injury bug hits.
- Zach Stortini and J.F. Jacques both also had excellent camps. Very slim chance either makes the team though, they will also most likely be sent down to Hamilton to start the season.
- Liam Reddox and Roman Tesliuk had terrible camps. I am hoping it was just nerves of playing at their first NHL training camp, we shall as the season progresses.
- Dubnyk has improved his positioning, but still needs to fill out his large lanky frame and work on his speed.
