Happy the dirtbag Flames didn’t get him.

 

[Oilhawks]

Awesome!

 

[McDNicks17]

Hopefully he does better than his brother.

 

[MettleMcOiler]

Oooo
Welcome to Oilers, Philp!

 

[Oilhawks]

Hopefully he does better than his brother.

Agreed. His brother is doing decent with Stockton

30 points in 18 games...so not too bad. A great photo of him there.

 

[Morpheus]

6’3 right handed centre

Here's a small sample from this year's playoffs:

What does he project as in the NHL? 4C with some size and skill?

He'll be our next Marody. Light up the AHL but never get a legit shot with the big team.

Lighting up the AHL might be a stretch for him.

His brother has shown a ton more offense at every level and he's just now pacing for 50 points in the AHL in his 27 year old season.

Just being a decent AHLer is probably a realistic top-end for Noah right now.

 

[Mcnotloilersfan]

I'm hopeful Holland is willing to move picks and prospects to making this team even better next season.

Adding depth to a deep prospect pool helps with that!

 

[joestevens29]

I wonder how much of Stauffer's show will be talking about this kid.

 

[OiledUp]

Always nice when you find something interesting digging around in your own backyard.

Also since Gene has already made an appearence in this thread. If you know Noah you know-a Philp.

 

[brentashton]

Seems like a meh move, in the big picture.

 

[Drivesaitl]

He's a skill player in CIS. I've seen him. One can never say what top end will be. Ryan was a good player too, not as flashy, but made the show and played a lot of NHL games.

Of Golden Bears stars of last decade Hickmott and Ringrose were pretty prolific but never made the show.

Philps is talented. Hard to see why such players got overlooked.

 

[joestevens29]

This is actually quite impressive that he ranks in top 10 on a list that includes NCAA players.
