Impending Lockout? RNH to the WHL -->AHL --> NHL
Ottawa Sun scribe Bruce Garrioch got this response from an unnamed NHL executive after the weekend’s free-agent spending spree finally wound down: "I cannot believe some of the deals. Well, enjoy the lockout."
Just a thought. If the Oilers really feel the NHL will end up in a lockout in the 2012-13 year, does it not make sense to send RNH back to the WHL, and let him play in the AHL the following year instead of burning 2 years of his entry level contract of which the 2nd would be not playing in the NHL.

My general impression from the comment made by Oilers management at the entry draft is that they are not going to rush Hopkins into the NHL
