Penticton Preview: Edmonton Oilers

Related Topics: Edmonton Oilers, Connor McDavid

The Edmonton Oilers have been providing the tournament goers of Penticton with an annual infusion of electric offensive players. In 2015, it was Connor McDavid (although Jake Virtanen may have decreased how much McDavid the fans got to see) and in 2017 it was Jesse Puljujärvi. The 2017 Oilers youngsters will have Kailer Yamamoto as their biggest offensive weapon.

Top Prospects

Kailer Yamamoto: At 5’8” and 153 lbs, the Spokane Chief forward is undersized, but his propensity for putting up offense more than makes up for his lack of size.
