Oilers Prospect Update: Bouchard officially to the WJC and three others
By Nation Dan
5 years agoAs we head into the holiday break for most, players are not playing much or are in their respective WJC camps.
Oilers prospects in WJC contention (pending possible cuts):
Evan Bouchard – Canada
Philip Kemp – USA
Dmitri Samorukov – Russia
Ostap Safin – Czech RepublicThere was an offensive power outage for the Condors this week and Dylan Wells came up and shut it down in his one game.
Some news from the big club surrounding the injuries to both Oscar Klefbom and Kris Russell:
Caleb Jones up to the bigs – Jones was called up and played his first ever NHL game on Friday night.
Marody sent down in a defensive shuffle – what a difference a week makes on the team. The two major defensive injuries shifted the team that was looking to find some bottom depth in the farm system, to now looking for some D men that can log time in 77 and 4’s absence.
