Tyler Benson + William Lagesson Called Up To The NHL! Russell + Nygard To IR | Edmonton Oilers News
The Edmonton Oilers have finally called Tyler Benson up to the NHL! He and William Lagesson will replace Kris Russell (Concussion protocol) + Joakim Nygard (Hand)! #Oilers #EdmontonOilers #TylerBenson #Nygard #Russell #Lagesson
You're not going to get a top 6 forward for Benson. If you were, HE'D BE A TOP 6 FORWARD! You're not going to get a top pairing defenseman for him either.
Benson + lagesson is better than nygard and russel, and first two games for the kids are St. Louis and the battle of Alberta… sheesh welcome to war boys
I hoping he starts on the third line, don’t give him to much time to early against STL and CAL but after those two games (after he gains some more confidence) try him out on the top line and move Neal down. Good like Benny!
I like your thoughts on putting Benson on the top line with McDavid and Kassian. I’d also like to see Khaira on the second line with Yamamoto and Draisaitl for some extra toughness along the boards like Kassian does for the top line. The Nuge, Neal and Chaisson had some chemistry in the pass. Sheahan, Archibald and Haas for the fourth line.
This is how a good GM brings along prospects. No need to rush them. Bring them along at there own pace. Ken gets a lot of dirt thrown at him for making some signings that ownership told him to make. Ken will shine and he will bring Edmonton to year in year out playoff team. He just has to clean up the roster. No need to rush anything this year. This is what s stable franchise looks like. No more need for fans to panic all the time. Too bad Puj didn't give Ken a chance.
I don’t know much about either. I had thought Bakersfield would kick some ass this year. They have barely a .500 record. Over ripen was supposed to be the word of the day in Oilers prospects during Ken Holland era?

Big call up time for the Hometown boy to shine
This a make or break chance for Tyler benson I’m excited to see how he does
Ken's always making good choices.
Ken going to make some moves
I'm hoping for Tyler Benson (and William Lagesson too, honestly hoping for the Oilers)

The auto-subtitles for this video read "This is stolen ETV". I laughed.

Why would you trade Tyler Benson? The kid is the future for the Oilers
Hype for the game tomorrow going to see it live
I like Nygard but he seems to have had some bad luck with injuries this season
Idk if bensons fast enough to do well with mcdavid. But it’d be interesting. I think he’d look good with Drai and yamo.
This is awesome…..Benson is one of those guys that I’ve been pumped to see with NHL players.
