Comments
The NHL combine list is out and if the past is any indication it offers Oilers fans a road map for the draft.
The top of the draft features young men from exotic places like Nizhnekamsk, Russia (Yakupov) and White City, Saskatchewan (Murray). The NHL combine list has in the past featured a large number of Oiler picks inside every pack. In the past couple of years Edmonton has called out a baker’s dozen from the (about) 200 invitees (100 per season).
  • 2010 (7): Tyler Bunz, Brandon Davidson, Taylor Hall, Curtis Hamilton, Martin Marincin, Ryan Martindale, Tyler Pitlick.
  • 2011 (6): Travis Ewanyk, Oscar Klefbom, David Musil, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Samu Perhonen, Tobias Rieder
That’s the heart of both Oiler drafts this decade.An average number (200 divided by 30 teams) would be 6 or 7; Edmonton procured 13 from the list.
The list usually gets some additions and some of these kids won’t be able to  do the testing but will be around for the interviews. Bolded players are the ones I think EDM may have a strong interest in.
