"A number of years ago we were talking about Chorney, Petry and Wild in an excited manner - top 4 material all - and I suggested that maybe one of them would become a real NHL player. You can expect the same thing with our new young dmen - 75% will turn out to be magic beans in the fullness of time. 'Curb your enthusiasm' is a phrase to remember with dmen"
--Always-thoughtful commenter AsiaOil at Lowetide's place.
If 75% of the Oilers' defensive prospect pool will turn into frijoles, you've got to pick 3 of these 12 as the guys to make it.
| Kyle Bigos |
| Jeremie Blain |
| Brandon Davidson |
| Taylor Fedun |
| Martin Gernat |
| Oscar Klefbom |
| Martin Marincin |
| Johan Motin |
| David Musil |
| Alex Plante |
| Dillon Simpson |
| Colten Teubert |
However, given five of these kids were drafted in the first or second round, an optimistic view says 33% will turn out, so let's say that 4 of the 12 on the list will end up in the NHL and play significant minutes.
