Hey, how great is it gonna be to have the oilers pick the WRONG player right in front of us and they will have watch a star develop a couple hours south for years to come while their pick busts like no other bust has ever busted.

He could be moved to RW if needed. He is young enough and a skilled enough guy to move there.

Ok regarding Drasaitl, Burke added that he doesn't see him as a top 6 forward. More of a bottom 6. And because of that he won't draft him. He then went on to say he doesn't draft Europeans early unless they are a bonfide top 6 player. He would rather fill the bottom 6 with North American kids and not Europeans.

I'm not doubting you .. but this makes no sense.
A high scoring, inconsistent, soft player - sounds more like a top 6 or bust than a bottom 5?
Maybe ive read the reports on him wrong. But an ISS guy compared him to Joe Thornton

Thanks guys. I only looked at hockeydb.com: http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/p...php?pid=160252 which has him listed as a LWer.

If we were to win the lottery, would anyone be opposed to trading down to 3rd with the oilers for there 2015 second? Or is that overpayment by the oilers? Or do we not want to see the oilers With another 1st overall. We would still be guaranteed one of the top three. Plus next years draft is supposed to be deep well into the second round.
