Oilers draft -- pick 'em

[MoneyGuy]

Here's a little game we can play up to the NHL draft. Name the player you think the Oilers will take. Once a player is named by someone then he can't be taken again. If your player is the Oil first-round draft choice, I'll rep you. If I'm right, someone has to rep me. I'm taking Anton Gustafsson. Why not, his daddy played here.

No rep at stake on this one, but also pick the player the Oilers won't be able to get but you'd love it if he lasted until pick No. 22. Me, I'd go ga-ga over Zach Boychuk. No way he lasts until our turn.

I think you're right. The Oilers love local boys.

I hope Joe Colbourne sticks around to 22 and the Oilers draft him.

So, make your own pics. You can't take someone who has already been taken.

The Edmonton Oilers select.... Jakob Markstrom - goalie - Brynas, Sweden

(If anyone would like my nhl mock draft creator spreadsheet, just let me know, has all of the players from central scouting on it.)

Hey, you leave Mules and Tuck83 alone, MG!

They're my main men!

Exactly. Just like Shane Doan.

Oh, wait...

For me it came down to a coin flip between Martstrom and Gustafsson. I don't think Colborne will be available at No. 22. He won't get by the Flames.

I like to pretend that never happened.

My dad went to a Alberta Sports hall of fame dinner a few years ago where the 80's Oilers team was inducted and Sather was there. My dad went up to Sather and basically went "WTF" with no drafting Doan. Apparently Sather agreed and he wanted to draft Doan but was over ruled by the majority of the scouting staff.

Calgary's going to snag him at 17. Plus, he's a local boy.
