He wasn't great in Penticton, but he got better through main camp.

Otherwise I completely agree with you.

No he didn't look great, but the whole Oilers team in Penticton sucked. The guy I was underwhelmed with at the tournament was Klefbom.

Larson looks pretty decent from the few minutes I saw him play in televised preseason games. Still can't believe anyone traded for Horcoff.

He can certainly skate like the wind. Jury is out on whether he can do anything else above replacement level in the NHL.

Glad that the Oilers didn't try and rush Nurse. He is definitely going to be a player us Flames are going to dislike in the future. Hard hitting, offensive and smart. Once he adds 30lbs to his frame and continues developing, he will really be effective out there.
