Hot Links: Monday, June 15

Morning, folks!

Lowetide looks back at the 2016 (and 2010) Drafts. Ah, memories.

Over the weekend the Oilogosphere turned back toward the Jesse Puljujarvi situation after the player softened his stance about a return to Edmonton at the end of last week.

A look at the logistics of pre-camp, including how Alex Chiasson is relaying drills from David Pelletier to the small group of players allowed on the ice.

Darnell Nurse spoke to the media yesterday about playing with no fans and the Michael Jordan documentary The Last Dance.

More than 100 white NHL players have now made statements against racial inequality.

Cooper Marody’s tribute track to Colby Cave is emotional.

Remembering the past decade’s worth of AHL rookies, and what’s ahead for the farm team next year.

It seems obvious to me, but there’s still debate over which goaltender the Oilers should start in Game 1 against Chicago.

Kevin Lowe has been a polarizing figure in Oilers history, but his time as GM is one most fans agree included some very high points.
