Like a mentioned in a different thread, I thought I had heard that Krueger said that they were going to recall someone this weekend.
I think this decision was made before any games were played.

I'm open to the chance this could be an excellent call up.
Thankfully they didn't bring Hordichuk in.

He's been pretty consistent in the NHL. He's probably the best 4rth line centre option in the depth chart.

With Belanger out they definitely need another true centre in the line-up.
I agree it would be nice to let Lander keep developing though. I imagine he will only be up with the big club until Belanger is healthy again or a trade takes place.

Might also be trying to catch lightning in a bottle a little hear...... Calling up a player on a hot streak......far too often the oilers would wait for the player to cool down before calling him up in he past....
I expect jones to be dealt before the deadline

I think his 6 point game last night deserves a call-up. Especially considering our current depth at the center position. Good for him!

Are you Gregor?
@JasonGregor
#Oilers recall Lander after 6-point night. He's played well, but do you change a lineup that has won 3 straight. Trade coming?

He will not score 6 pts (3G 3A) here... I just posted in the other threads about this (there seems to be a few now) that he's not an offensive guy... No 60 in center scoring has been below 0.5 ppg for several seasons now, and I think that's normal. Let's just not have too high expectations in Lander right now... He's more of a Callahan type of player imo.

Ralph Krueger on Lander call-up: "Belanger's injury looks to be lingering, looks to be going on for a while."
@EdmontonOilers
"We need somebody else ready to jump in. He's our most multi-skilled and talented player (to bring up)." - Krueger on Lander recall

Good for Lander, i thought that he played just fine in his last callup and was starting to play pretty consistently before being sent back down.
This leads me to believe that a forward is being shipped out because the current group of 12 is all playing pretty well, none of them deserve to be benched.

Yeah I'm kinda wondering where you put him.
The obvious choice is the 4th line but then do you take Smyth out or move him to the wing and take out Petrell?
Tough call, I like Petrell's game right now, but I think he's the only option.
