Oilers prospect Sam O’Reilly exploding offensively in the OHL with 7 points in 3 games. Is this a sign of things to come or just a hot streak? What are people’s expectations for him this season? Likewise, William Nicholl, also in the OHL, maintaining a point-per-game pace. Anyone see this coming? How long can he keep it up? Are we witnessing the development of some legitimate scoring depth in the Oilers system? Bold prediction: at least one of these two players makes the Oilers roster within the next three years. What do you think? Which other Oilers prospects are exceeding expectations? Is Bakersfield’s rebuilding process impacting prospect development positively or negatively? Discuss!
