I would agree that Benson is a very long shot to have an impact at the NHL level. Missing so much playing time in his prime WHL years is something he just can't make up for. Still, he seems to be a hard worker and is worth prime playing time in Bakersfield, in my opinion.

How about Cooper Marody? Like Gambardella, had a brief, mostly forgettable call up to the Oilers earlier this season, and continues to do well for the Condors. Will he ever get called up to the NHL again? Who knows? I'm sure his agent and maybe Woodcroft will be giving him a push. A little bit of hype can't hurt.

"Marody, the CCM/AHL Rookie of the Month, registered three goals and 10 assists for 13 points in 13 games for Bakersfield, which finished January with eight consecutive wins.

Marody scored a goal against Colorado on Jan. 4, then put together a seven-game scoring streak beginning with an assist at Texas on Jan. 9. He notched three assists as the Condors defeated Stockton, 4-2, on Jan. 16, and had another three-point game – including scoring the overtime winner – in a 5-4 victory over the Heat on Jan. 18. Marody scored in a 6-2 win at San Diego on Jan. 19 and tallied two assists in a 6-5 OT decision at San Jose on Jan. 21, and would finish the month by representing the Condors at the 2019 AHL All-Star Classic in Springfield."

Maybe that 2019 Round 3 draft pick the Oilers sent to Philadelphia to obtain Marody was a good gamble.

Yeah - I like Marody's chances of being an NHLer. He's over a point a game. Same age as Benson but better numbers.

I can't remember the story with Marody - was he going to go back in the draft, unable to reach a deal with Philly? If so, the question is whether he'd have been the third round pick if the Oilers had the chance to take him there. It's looking like he would have been a really good pick in the third - especially since he could go straight to the AHL. Not to mention, we got the certainty of getting the guy we wanted there, rather than chancing it that someone else picked him up just before our turn at the podium...

Chia seems to have got that one right anyhow...
