Thread: Major upgrades your thoughts
Something I'd like to touch on since I follow Edmonton's prospects religiously close is that you've resigned a bunch of guys for Bakersfield that shouldn't be there next season unless their production goes absolutely mental from now until season's end.

Larkin, Russell, Gambardella, Vesel, and Starrett will most likely not be Oilers property come July 1st 2019. The options coming up from junior or the ECHL next season, paired with Berglund and Persson coming from the SHL, and any other potential college or overage junior UFAs the Oilers may target this season, very definitively push those 5 out of a job. Hayden Hawkey is most likely going to sign with the team considering ChiaPete gave up a pick this year for him: expect him to start in the ECHL next season.

I'd also like to mention that Ryan Mantha's career is effectively over unless his eye injury wasn't as severe as once thought.

Beyond that, if this team is electing to run Russell-Benning as the bottom pair next season, the Oilers probably won't be any better than they are today.
