Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch will be announcing more roster cuts
Breaking news in Oil Country as Kris Knoblauch confirms more roster will be coming following Monday's game against the Vancouver Canucks.
According to Daily Hive, The Oilers' last cuts came on Thursday when they announced that forward Ethan de Jong, along with defencemen Maximus Wanner and Noel Hoefenmayer, had been reassigned to the Bakersfield Condors of the AHL. Following the transactions, they have 24 forwards, 13 defencemen, and four goalies remaining in camp.
Raphael Lavoie, Mike Hoffman, Lane Pederson, Noah Philp, Matt Savoie, and Travis Dermott will be playing hard tonight against the Seattle Kraken as only a few roster spots are up for grabs.
Another impressive young prospect for the Oilers has been young Sam O'Reilly, who is only 18 years old. Although O'Reilly is expected to return to the OHL, don't be surprised if coach Knoblauch gives O'Reilly a mid season call up to make his pro debut with the Edmonton Oilers.
Game time is set for 7:00 PM MT @ Roger Place, Edmonton.
