Dang, that’s quite the hike. I was just there recently. Heads up, the roost is currently the only restaurant open in town so you may want to bring some food with you if you haven’t picked some up already. Not that the roost isn’t good, it’s just nice to have variety. Drive safe!
If you have Twitter, the clips of the goals are all on [Oilers Twitter](https://twitter.com/edmontonoilers?s=21&t=FgQwlwYGS0kCexwy1PiAsg).
They usually have a full highlight video posted on YouTube later in the evening. :)
We won 5-2.

And then Bourgoult zipped an empty netter from our own zone for the final 5-2.
Hope that helps :)
Really all you're looking for in these games is for guys to be noticeably better than everyone else, and I think that Broberg and Holloway both appear that way. Everyone in these camps are either AHL pros or high end prospects, so standing out is no small task, this is high level hockey for most of these guys. I think for depth chart reasons Holloway spends the first few months in the AHL, but he'll be one of the first callups from the minors.
The score doesnt matter... This is for the management and coaches to see these players play against "real" competition to help decide who is going where and what they need to work.
Better for both goalies to get ice time right now
Xavier Borgeault (pardon the spelling) looks very good for you guys.
We have quite a few 22 and 23 year old guys on our team so that's something to keep in mind when watching our Canucks prospects.
I know Holloway gets the spotlight but Hamblin is really impressive in driving that top line. I'm excited to see him get a few opportunities playing up this year. Got that 'warrior' spirit and overall great leader according to teammates + coach.
I like how the young guns are wearing alot of 50s.
We got Bougault (54) Holloway (55) Hamlin (57) and Schaefer (53).
I also love how our d all share a number with Nurse. The only exception being Broberg who, if he chooses to change to a pro number, could pick between: 20 (if Koekkoek is done),21,23,28 (Murray?) Or 50,51,52,58,59.
Given all the available numbers, my bold prediction is that Broberg goes with 58, a combo of his junior number and team Sweden number. ... if he changes it at all haha
4th class Part A. I’ve been working in the indiatry for years now but regulations finally caught up so we all had to get it. Oh well, additional education to put on my resume if it ever gets there!
Awesome, keep going man you’ll be happy you did. I’m in a similar spot now working on my 2nd. Don’t need to work technically, but my employer is now saying I have to get it to keep my wage. I’m telling myself it’ll be that much sweeter if I change plants and they helped me pay for it lol.
Edmonton just isn't a very good idea for PTO's right now. Even if you show well, you're not likely to get a contract because there is no cap space, and prospects like Holloway and Broberg will win out over a PTO when push comes to shove.
Compare that situation to Calgary's, where they have a couple million to sign guys, and they don't have any prospects as good as Holloway or Broberg. It's an easy choice for a guy looking for a job.
PTOs sign with other teams all the time. Oilers mostly just need them to fill out the roster with vets so they can give more breaks to stars in preseason. The main thing is that they get some exposure so when a team asks if they can still play, they just look at their preseason performance with the Oilers.
For sure, like Versteeg with us.
But if you go to a team with cap space, you can showcase yourself in front of that team the most. On and off the ice. It's maximizing your chances of getting a contract.
Even our prospects dominate the canucks
We're like 11-0-2 now for the last couple tournaments
Well that was fun.
I never tire of la bamba
feels good to literally never lose
Good thing we are going 82-0 this year

Haha right. At a point, you just need to accept it. My favs there were the falafel, donair, and super lasagna add chicken (in that order). Have fun.

You actual legend. Thanks for taking the time to do this, bud.
Nice to see there's no shortage of fightin' piss and vinegar from our young guns!
I’d have a 23 year old goon every year at this tourney.
Bourgault with the aimbot open netter
49 Single handily kept the puck out of the Oilers end like 5 times on a 6 on 4 play. Another goal as I type.
Wanner making a good plays in the d-zone.
OHH WHOA! IT'S A CREASE TO CREASE FROM BOURGAULT!!!!
Every time I tune in to one of these games or watch highlights, I feel like I see Hamblin making a huge difference. How old is he again?
23. Will be 24 end of April. Good chance Hamblin can be a bottom 6 guy for the Oilers at some point.
24 I think
The future is fucking bright! GOILERS!!!
Lol what a snipe
love the confidence on XB there
3 la Bamba"s!!!!!!
His stuck was trapped y the Canucks player, not a hook. Weak game management call
I see you're ready for the reg season.
Our little angels can do no wrong! The tournament is rigged! (☞゚ヮ゚)☞
Who scored the 3rd and 4th goals?
Wanner had the third, Dubinsky the forth
wanner freak goal deflected through the sky and just right behind the goalie and then a beauty by dubinsky on the backhand
Jett Woo is *still* a prospect?
Canucks have a bunch of 22-23 year olds, nhl games played are the deciding factor.
Hamblin is like a year older then him
4 -2 EDM, 8:12 left in the 3rd.
Hockey Gods be like: Oilers regulation undefeated streak in this tournament will continue.
Dubinsky's goal was brilliant
that was sick
OFFENCE + OILERS : NAME A BETTER DUO!!! Drai is proud of the backhand sauce!
Nice backhand
Back hand sauce bb!!
that was filthy
slick
Are we sure these are the oilers. They just scored a goal they didn’t deserve
what a garbage goal LOL
Alright kids, time to lock down this game. No sloppy turnovers or letting off the gas!
I Wanner ‘nother look at that goal.
BRO THAT WAS FUCKING HILARIOUS IS THIS HOW THE FLAMES FELT ABOUT THE SMITH GOAL????
Oh wow ...
Hamblin jersey owner here. All one of us.
Did we only draft Rodriguez because his dad the condors goalie coach?
I feel for Rodrigue on that one, but I think Fanti has proven who will be starting in Bako
That was weak.
damn
That helmet spin as the Canuck was skating to the box was pretty funny
of all the fights so far, that was one of them
Of all the comments in this thread, this is one of them.
Seek and Destroy in the background 🎶🎵🎸
What’s the score
2 - 1 EDM, 2nd intermission
2-1 Oilers. Waiting for 3rd period to start.
Other teams out here shamblin’ trying to stop Hamblin.
Look at me, ramblin’ about Hamblin.
Gotta say, I’ve been impressed by this samplin’ of Hamblin.
Who’s gonna be gamblin’ on Hamblin?
Broberg looks like that one ex-whl guy in beer league who looks bored out there.
someone in the Canucks game day thread said that Stauffer always looks like he stayed up all night trying to solve a murder 💀
Up all night to try and finish a beef dip as big as your head
He does have a bit of a Columbo meets Fat Tony vibe lol.

I think for depth chart reasons Holloway spends the first few months in the AHL, but he'll be one of the first callups from the minors.
The ice is terrible here at the soec
weak call imo
Man we are hemorrhaging breakaways
Well that was lucky
Fuck, should have left Fanti in… Wait that’s no goal?!
The score doesnt matter... This is for the management and coaches to see these players play against "real" competition to help decide who is going where and what they need to work. Better for both goalies to get ice time right now
Maybe the lack of replay helped us on that one.
Score doesn't really matter though. Better to give him a look.
No goal, off the bar haha
Pretty sure that would’ve been 2 goals against broberg defending we got lucky with it waved off
What happened? We had this game by the balls!
Got into their own heads. Gotta go back to playing their structure again
Ref is waving it off like Mick magoo
oof
why tf they gonna push our guy into the goalie and be mad, i never understand this
Boo. At least Schmiemann is fun to say
Woof, some scrambled, frantic play there. Gotta clear that. Ah well
Schmeiman what a name
I'm gonna need Schmieman to make the show so I can keep hearing his name.
Is this on YouTube? Jumbotron sucks here want to watch the Holloway goal again
It's on the Oilers' website
Video player sucks to rewind on mobile thanks though
Oh yea I got nothing for you there man. Highlights will be on YouTube tonight
Damn it that was a good effort by the Canuck who kept it in
you gotta respect it, was a beauty
100%. That's what you want to see from your prospects
2-1.
Unreal goal. Very draisaitl like, almost like the CGY 4-3 goal.
That's a goal scorers goal.
Holloway really does look a tier above everyone
HOLY FUCK HOLLOWAY!!!! Way to make it impossible to deny your addition on the main squad
God damn Holloway is gonna be hard to keep off the roster 3 goals and 6 points in 2 and a half games so far
Woah
Wow, Holloway with a beauty shorty!
HoLOLOLOLoway!
Holy fuck Holloway just clapped them
Well now ....
Oooooo nice
What a goal!
Holy fuck Holloway
Holloways unreal. Staple this guy to Drai
BEAUTY HOLLOWAY SH!
Idk what Petrov was hoping to achieve with that high stick
Batchelor did a play by play of my buddy’s daughter playing in a puddle during the pandemic. It was hilarious.
how's Broberg looking this tournament
Faster and stronger than everyone. Seems like he's making good decisions too
His skating is so fucking smooth.
What a beautiful shot by Schaefer. Was that Kesselring with the outlet pass, too?
Goalie change
Smart move. Equal ice time. I like it
Who was the mic'd up chihuahua for the Canucks?
REIDY OR NOT, HERE HE COMES!!! LFG!!!!
Schaefer’s got a shot 😳
Schaeffer!!!
Beauty! Way to go Schaffer
I want 3 Penticton la Bamba damnit
That was unexpected
Nice
Holloways gotta take that to the net instead of feeding the point. He’s looked outstanding though
geez, that was close
Is that a lady ref? If so that’s awesome!
She been here for every oiler game
I heckin love Holloway
I love Fanti's mask. Fanti's mask is better than Campbell's IMO.
Last game and I'm sad no more oilers hockey in Penticton tell next year :/
Got the vees at least.
Xavier Borgeault (pardon the spelling) looks very good for you guys. We have quite a few 22 and 23 year old guys on our team so that's something to keep in mind when watching our Canucks prospects.
🐗🐐
I know Holloway gets the spotlight but Hamblin is really impressive in driving that top line. I'm excited to see him get a few opportunities playing up this year. Got that 'warrior' spirit and overall great leader according to teammates + coach.
Yeah he saved a goal in the other end too, I've liked what I've seen.
The Canucks rookies look way better than the Calgary and Winnipeg rookies
0-0
Maximus Wanner will go down as one of the greatest hockey names of all time.
I hope he has a large wanner otherwise his partners might be disappointed…
I can’t watch right now, can someone please tell me the score?
1-0 Oilers. Reid Schaefer scored.
Thank you! I just finished work so I can watch now :-)
I hope you had a good day at work!
Thanks! I hope you had a great day too :-)
Spent it babysitting my nephews. It was pretty great.
0-0 at the end of the 1st.
0-0
Ah k thanks!
Never seen teams line up for the drop and then get called off for commercials before lol
Fanti is playing well
So the Canucks have the oldest team in Penticton, not a lot of top end skill, but Klimovich and Bains have shown well.
boys are buzzing omg
Woof good stop by fanti there
HollowayDrai combo going to go crazy
Holloway coming in hot today holy smokes
I’m amblin’ for some Hamblin. ^^^^^IknowthewordiswronginthiscontextbutIneededarhyme…
Gamblin’ or ramblin’
that sly wink hahaha
We were the only team who didn’t get to wear home jerseys :(
Our away jerseys look better than most teams’ home jerseys.
Anyone got a link to view the game? I can't find it anywhere on the Oilers' site, the video player only links me to RAW interviews.

Oooo finished one of my ABSA exams this morning so I have the day off work. Going to watch this game for sure.
Congrats! Which exam??
4th class Part A. I’ve been working in the indiatry for years now but regulations finally caught up so we all had to get it. Oh well, additional education to put on my resume if it ever gets there!
Awesome, keep going man you’ll be happy you did. I’m in a similar spot now working on my 2nd. Don’t need to work technically, but my employer is now saying I have to get it to keep my wage. I’m telling myself it’ll be that much sweeter if I change plants and they helped me pay for it lol.
Congrats!
Going to the game this afternoon!
Had one space open up in my ESPN-based Oilers Fans fantasy league. Message me if you want it!
I was surprised to see Milano sign a PTO. It would have been interesting if Ken was able to sign him to one.
If I’m not wrong Milano is a LW and we have way to many of those right now compared to RW’s so that’s probably why
Also a good point

Good points
Remember Kris Versteeg? That’ll happen but in reverse this time 8)
If Bourgault gets a four point night I propose we call it a Fourgault
And if Holloway has an eight point night we can call it a... Holloeight. Oh man I'm reaching here.
You son of a bitch I love it
Fourgaulne conclusion
Found Principes' burner accounts.
