Once a loaded farm system, the Oilers have graduated many to their NHL ranks.

Really?Maybe someone can help me out but besides Pouilet who has graduated from their farm club. I'll be honest I don't follow the Oilers enough (nor would I want too) but the kid line came right into the NHL if I'm not mistaken (Nilson did spend some time in the Islanders system I beleive). I always thought that Oilers had issues developing players.

The forward group still has perennial prospect Rob Schremp

^^To me that if a player has been in a system that long and still can't make the jump he is no longer a prospect, he is fodder.
