Yeah, I was kinda suprised we took him at 21. But Murray must have thought he was on someone else radar, so he took him with our 21st.. But in the end, this one make sense, since we traded our 35th and 48th pick for the 24th pick. I means, we could have taken him with the 24 instead, but it doesn't change much imo.. and he was definately not gonna be avaible with our next pick (the 61st). But yeah, I trust Murray.. people were all wondering why he moved up to take Perry and Karlsson.. look how good they are right now.

So excited for next season
Smyth
My favourite player ever

you realize the trade fell through correct due to brules health issues

Excited for the wings too with Jurco, Marchenko, Ouellet. Lots of decent players coming in this year, I think the Oilers are gonna have a great team in a few years with getting RNH as long as they can manage their contracts.

Wait what
They didn't get smyth back?

they had a deal in place but it fell thorugh due to brules concussion issues

It looks like the deal fell through

Hopefully the oilers will find a way to get him anyway.
