The Edmonton Oilers NHL Draft was kind of quiet. After deciding to pass on a potential future franchise goalie in Jesper Wallstedt the team decided to draft Xavier Bourgault with their first-round pick, but let’s not get too ahead of ourselves here.
The draft featured some feel-good stories. From New Jersey drafting Luke Hughes to Seattle drafting their first-ever player during the NHL draft. It was a really fun event. The Oilers made some moves during the draft and honestly, it was a pretty quiet night for them.
