He has a good chance IMO.

He's produced at a 1st round clip in the USHL since about half way through his rookie season.

He's gritty and borderline dirty but he's also a good skater for his size and combines it with skill too.

If he keeps to develop as he did last year then he has a shot.

If anybody in the organization will benefit from having Lucic around its Pospisil. Prime Lucic is the mould of what he needs to be in the NHL.

That shift looked like a PP.

Maybe our prospects aren't as horrible as we've been told.

Man, Yelesin is fast!! Unleashes a bomb and runs down the oiler on a partial break.

Pospisil reminds me of Claude Lemieux.

Oilers look like they’re on a 3 in 4 nights.

Except that usually involves a lot of dirty stuff and then running away. No running away from him. Even if a guy half a foot taller jumps him from behind.

Liked Yelesin from what I've seen so far.

Brings the poise and calmness you want in an NHL dman.

Another great period from Pelletier. So dynamic and smart. Pospisil standing out again, and again not only for his greasiness. Just needs to get faster. Ruzickas looked much better than in years past as well. Wolf solid so far

usually, but sometimes you get that Steve Begin/Denis Gauthier/i can't think of another example

Dirt was a factor missing from the formula last year.

Johnny slashed on the hands? rub some dirt on it.

13 shots oilers? At least 10 of them are from the boards a shooter tutor would stop. They are no good.

I suppose. It's the damn 10/11 Canucks that ruined them for me.

Pelletier looks really good, phillips looks much better than expected, pospisil looks like he could find a role in the nhl, and if Ruzika plays like this all the time he will also make it.

However, they are playing against a midget triple a team so I guess we shall see what they look like against the real competition lol.

The Flames have drafted a slew of smaller skill guys. There's going to be a need for a teammate like Ruzicka.
