chucker: Thanks Racki.I’ll check out the Oilers site because their streaming video is awesome.:/

On that note, here's a good video I just saw too that talks about the captaincy being named.. this footage was never shown in Oil Change. Kinda cool.

I’m not sure when it will re-air, but they are all available on the Oilers site… also can be Youtubed, I believe.

O don’t really think you can go wrong with any of the top five guys quite frankly. It’s really now at the point like it was at this time last year in determining who is the “best” pick in terms of who’s had a great year and looks like they are ready for the show.

Remember how Fowler fell down so badly. He’s still a guy who is playing in the NHL as a rookie D man and doing very well. He’ll be a stud on the Anaheim blue line for years to come.

Even if we take Couturier instead of RNH, I’m okay with it.

EDIT: Also, I missed Oil Change last night. Anyone know when it may re-air?

RE-EDIT: NM. I see it’s on Friday.

I don’t know how reputable that site is, but that’s a pretty good write up, at any rate. Interesting stuff.

Each of Larsson, Landeskog and RNH fit our needs in some way. Couturier I am not 100% certain on. He technically fits what we need. The word on him has been all over the place, though, whereas RNH seems to have that great compete level that we are really looking for.

Of course having a franchise d-man would be fantastic. He’s still my front-runner (Larsson). Landeskog is also a great choice now that we lost Penner. Having some size on the team with very good skill would be nice.

I really wouldn’t be upset with any of those guys.
