Wallstedt wouldn't have mattered anyway, by the time he is ready to play in the NHL the oilers will be losing their star players.
Just looking at the standings. They say that if a team is out of the playoffs by American Thanksgiving they almost never make the playoffs. They also say that you need about 96 points to make the playoffs. The oilers would have to win all of their next 11 games to get back to a 96 point pace by Nov 30th.
