These three guys' upside is significantly higher than any Oilers prospect not named Nurse. In Kylington's case, a year ago he was considered a better prospect than Nurse was ever considered, and if he gets his future back on track will be better than Nurse. I would rather have all of these three than Nurse, by a long shot. The competition between them will make each of them better players and trade assets.
Nakladal*
Morrison
Kulak
Culkin
Kanzig
Wotherspoon
Rafikov
Each of these guys, as much as OIlers fans want to think otherwise, is a similar level prospect to Griffin Reinhart and better than LaLeggia. Maybe Nakladal's too old to be officially a prospect, but he like Russell and Smid is still on the good side of 30 and he's waiver exempt next season so we can acclimate him into our system slowly.
Gilmour
Ollas Mattson
Sieloff
These three guys are all close in level to Oilers B-prospects like Simpson, Musil, Bear, Marino, and Oesterle.

to paraquote you: Your Flame homerism is getting really really old.
Griffin Rienhart is not good enough to play on the Flames AHL team?? Yet he was called up as a 20 year old by the Islanders who were 6 deep in NHL d-men able to play 18+ nhl minutes on a team with a better record than the Flames in a tougher divison.
If you were using the same evaluation for the Flames prospects then they should have cut ties with 22 year old Wotherspoon as he was obviously not NHL ready on a team was really short of NHL level d-men.
You are as far off as to join that epic Oiler evaluation in that they had 5-6 Giordano level D-men waiting for a chance.
