Oh right. Wishful thinking.

Disagree. I think the Oilers needs are for size up front or a top line defenceman. Plus I think the Oilers need someone sooner rather than later. Draisaitl could be their big 2nd line centre within a year. I can see the Oilers prioritizing him over the Sams easily.
The Flames on the other hand do need size too but we can be more patient with whoever we pick. I think Bennett's speed, skill, competitiveness combo would put him near the top of our list and potentially higher on our list than the Oilers.
However I'm starting to think both Draisaitl and Bennett will be gone by our pick.
