And just like every year, it’s time to take a look at the Oilers draft class, and how experts across the industry graded the picks. On Jonsson: Samuel Jonsson is a large goaltender who played all season in Sweden’s J20 league with Brynas and had inconsistent performance. On Yevseyev: Yevseyev skates and competes well enough and can outlet pucks fine but the offensive upside in his game is a question. They have some interesting pieces with their late-round picks including 6-foot-5 goalie Samuel Jonsson, who fits an organizational need. Armed with only one pick of real consequence, it’s hard to trash the Oilers’ draft too hard.
