The Bakersfield Condors have been the Edmonton Oilers farm team since 2015.

As of last season, we’ve now reached a milestone that 17 players in those five years have made their big league debuts. That’s a much better drafting record than what the Oilers have had in the past.

Peter Chiarelli didn’t do a lot of good in this city as GM, but one good thing he did was to do a housecleaning of the scouting staff.
