Most start with goal and D for sure. To add small, skilled forwards though without acquiring any big physical guys who can play the top 2 lines is remarkably poor planning... thanks Lowe. - haymac
Honestly I can't blame management for who they drafted with the #1 picks they had. It's not like there was a Doughty type dman to really consider for the #1 pick. Some might say we should have taken Murray over Yakupov but I really don't see Yak as being the wrong choice. He was really rated a lot higher by almost everyone compared to Murray. I really have no problem with us drafting Hall, RNH, Yak with those #1 picks, if need be we can always trade one of those players for something we really need. They are only going to get better overtime. To be honest the only real pick I have an issue with over the last couple of years is in 2010 when we drafted Musil over Gibson. Gibson was highly touted then and I think that is one I would take back for sure. |

Gibson doesn't have an Oiler connection though like Musil. Therefore it was a no brainer for management to take the heavy footed one dimenstional defenseman. |

Yeah, I guess. Hindsight is 20-20 though. People weren't screaming bloody murder when we took Sam Gagner instead of Ryan McDonough, or Alex Plante instead of Max Paccioretti at the time.maybe we should have taken John Carlson instead of Ebs? No doubt our team would be more balanced today, but team needs were different then, and really, who has a Chrystal ball? |

I think it's at least 3 years from all of Marincin,Schultz,Petry,Klefbom and Nurse being in the NHL, and likely a couple years after that before they are all effective. Team needs a couple of short term Stewards to offer immediate improvement and to help mentor the rookies as they filter in. - Jeropotato
every single rookie needs to be paired with a veteran, even petry in my opinion. |

So another six years? That puts the rebuild at twelve years?

Damien Cox: A rumor that was floating around the prospects game that was going on during the summer, was a James Reimer for Nail Yakupov deal.

Not that it matters, anyone know why Yak didn't get credit for an assist on Eberle's goal last night? |

I thought he did. They originally had one. Did they take it away? |
