Thanks for the input, I get where you are coming from but with this Draft and the ability to make trades, I pick up E. Karlsson 25yrs and D. Savard 24yrs for the right side. Part of the process for me was to retool some of the forward prospects once those deals were made.
Honestly the Oiler pipeline is brutal for prospects but I targeted a certain list and pretty much got everyone I wanted.

I have never done one of these mock drafts before, it was a fun exercise..

Out of curiosity, who would have you selected there?

 

[OilTastic]

^likely RD Andrew Peeke. big at 6'3" 200 and decent points 29 in 54 games in the USHL.

but like i said, it's a good haul for the Oilers and you have taken good care of our defense without us having to blink much as far as losing form the offensive side.

Yeah I had considered Peeke but saw him as a more talented David Musil.

Just wasn't sure about his feet?

I thought Kopacka at #60 was a steal, rated much higher on many sites and being a .64ppg player in really his first OHL year...... plus his size, was enough to look past Peeke.

 

[Tapdog]

Are looking to add salary or add short term experience.

Please PM me your suggestions.​

^David Musil 2.0? yikes!! pass! and i admit i am not as up on a lot of these players as i was in previous draft years because i just haven't had the time to play this year. and i'm still OK with who you took, we got bigger, tougher and more talented this draft. and got likely the best offensive d-man in the NHL, and RD to boot in Karlsson !!

good add with RD David Savard too, though some have questioned his effectiveness defensively from time to time. also good move was to trade for Faksa. either he or Leon can move to the wing and still give us 3 good centers even without Nuge and the mediocre Lander.

I may be hard on the fella but you need quick feet to play todays game. I was still looking at him as I had a few picks right in there but it was no surprise when Toronto took him, he took him in another Mock so.....
And yes Freakin Karlsson on the point here with McDavid.......

Actually Savard is better numbers wise than most people give him credit for and I would not be surprised if the Oilers actually tried to acquire him at the draft.
I have always liked Faksa and he would be my line up once I jettison Letestu lol.

confirm.

The addition of C. Johnson to the Edmonton Oilers is pivotal, he is a proven and a quality back up in the NHL and his presence will allow L. Brossoit to continue to develop in the AHL.

Will post lineup and cap soon.
