Erik Karlsson Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 he was forced to have a an ELC, meaning 3 years, 2 way. everyone gave him the exact same contract offer, what edmonton did was guarantee ice time to him, outside of the contract. not enforceable, but would reflect bad on the club if they didn't hold up their end.

UFCanuck Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Alex Bolduc has 8 points already. He's going to be a Superstar guys. MG missed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozzy Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 4 games against Colorado's farm team which sucks. He got 3 secondary assists on the powerplay tonight literally standing at the blueline doing nothing. Not to mention he's playing with PPG NHL players. It's like us putting one of our prospects with the Sedins in the AHL. Look, he's gonna be a good offensive defenseman. But I wouldn't brag so soon if I were you. There have been lots of young players that have lit it up in the AHL, only to fall flat on their face in the big leagues. He's not a bust, but he's definietly far from being a star at this point.

King of the ES Posted October 24, 2012 Author Share Posted October 24, 2012 He's likely gonna be a solid NHL defensemen, but so are alot of players. He may very very well even be another Mike Green type player, which is great for the Oilers, but the Canucks have enough of those type of defenseman.

Darkstar Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I don't wanna act like one of those fans that are trying to downplay this guy. But he's playing with Eberle and Nugent-Hopkins. These guys are WAY too good to be in the AHL. He's just along for the ride with them, picking up 3 secondary assists (2 off Nugent-Hopkins) on the powerplay.

Erik Karlsson Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 He has as many points as Eberle and RNH combined. This kid is good, especially for an AHL rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoneypuckOverlord Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 props to him, but don't pump a rookie AHL rookie with a fast start. Remember Magnuas Parjarrvi Svenson? Remember that dude? 5 points in his first NHL pre season game. But none the less, an impressive start to his career. I also hope this thread dies out. I don't want to be reminded of this bailer.

oldnews Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 A really good fit for the Oilers. And like DeNiro said - playing with guys like Eberle and RNH - point a game guys in the NHL - doesn't hurt. A few people here might want to have a look at the Lake Erie roster... Come up with some surprising results. Throw the twins on the Wolves (that is the quality of players we are talking about in those young Oil) and Kassian and Connauton might light it up at an alarming rate as well. Anyway - I hope Schultz lives up to the hopes (I like Edmonton, Winnipeg, Montreal and Ottawa) but I'm not going to get caught up in king-sized whining about the fact he didn't sign here.

James van Riemsdyk Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Yup, probably cup contenders in the next couple years. All they need is a decent goalie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
