Draft Recap


Edmonton did another good job at addressing their needs, they are now thoroughly stocked at the defense and center positions, their organizational depth is deep in those areas. Edmonton had to trade up to get their main man, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, but their depth of picks made that move a non issue. With 19 picks in the last two drafts, the Oilers cabinet is stocked with talent.
