I still think Samorkuov is too low. He could literally be the best LHD on the Oilers right now.

Who would you put him ahead of? Bouchard and Broberg are automatically 1 and 2 just based on upside. I could see the argument to bump him ahead of Holloway, they're similar level prospects.

Not much of an accomplishment tbh.

I actually think he's ahead of both Holloway and Broberg right now, and I'm a big Broberg fan.

Right now, yes, Samorukov is probably better than Broberg, but if we're taking into account projection and upside it would be hard to justify him as the better prospect.

Same reason I have Carter Savoie ahead of someone like Tyler Benson.

What level do you think he can reach if he hits his ceiling?

Prime Brent Seabrook.

That's ridiculous, literally.

Anyway, I'm hopeful that Samorukov can crack the roster next season and establish himself as a regular.

Yeah, you’re right, Koekkoek is probably better than him at the moment.

 

[CupofOil]

Yeah, you’re right, Koekkoek is probably better than him at the moment.

Actually you're right now that I think about it since Koekkoek is playing the right side so he would be the best LD the Oilers currently have.
Samorukov-Koekkoek take the tough minutes while Nurse-Larsson take the easy minutes.

Now you’re starting to get my drift.

Broberg and Blumel each picked up assists today, Broberg on the late-tying goal and Blumel on the winner.

Broberg is still getting back to full health so he's been listed as the #7D since returning from the WJC. He still got decent ice-time though.

They're distributing the ice-time in a bit of a weird way, but they've won 4 straight so who can blame them for keeping it up. The top pair D's have seen sub-20 mins in TOI, 3 games ago (first back for Broberg) the D that played most minutes only played 17:16.

I wouldn't worry about them wearimg out Broberg. He's playing 13-15 mins, so coming back slow. And as was said before this was not really about an injury that could get worse and worse, it was just about playing with a lot of pain. That was how I understood it anyhow.

I saw that after I posted haha. Well done man, too funny

 

[ConnorMcMullet]

Dylan Holloway plays today.

 

[Soli]

Holloway had a 3 point night. If they don't change Caufield's goal as going off Holloway, Dylan will finish he night with 1 goal and 2 assists, 22-12 in the face-off circle.

The QMJHL has started its season tonight. The Dub is committed to a 24 game schedule and the OHL is trying to get a 2021 season. I imagine that none of the Oiler prospects will be in the juniors this season, though.

Really small scouting window, hopefully our scouts can make the most of their viewings.

Tullio is only on loan to Slovakia so I think he actually has to come back if the OHL gets things going.

Thanks, Bobo. I just read the Generals story that he was to come back to quarantine prior to the Gens' training camp, that would've started tomorrow. But, that's been pushed back due to the Ontario lockdown. So, it'll be when or if there's a season.

Wow he looks like a different player on the ice from the one we saw for most of the WJC. It's almost like something was hampering him and limiting his ability in Edmonton earlier this month.
