I think that the 0 pull up makes Edmonton pick Draisaitl. They already had RNH who had a weak (strength-wise) combine and they pooh-pooed that only 6 bench presses had no bearing on his ability to play hockey. Having yet another undersized centre to go with RNH and Gagner might be too much for Katz to handle and Lowe might get cut loose. People can see Edmonton needs big and they can see that Draisaitl is big. Smaller weak guy that might end up playing big?? Draisaitl is the safe pick for the Oilers ..... just like Nurse was the safe pick last year.

If Bennett get drafted by the Oilers I would feel sorry for him and his one pull up. He, Perron and Hall will be the tough guys in the Oilers top 6 or maybe even 9.


The Flames will get whichever Sam the Sabres don't want.
