Nevertheless, Olivier Rodrigue does seem to be holding his own in Drummondville. Hope he gets a chance someday to become overripe in the Oiler system. https://www.nhl.com/oilers/news/future-watch-rodrigue-named- chl-goaltender-of-the-week/c-304148912 "The Oilers prospect went 2-0 with a goals-against-average of 1.00 and save percentage of .963, improving to 27-6-1-0 this season with the Drummondville Voltigeurs." Awesome! At least we have the goaltending fixed! ... :) But seriously, it is good to see he's coming around.. he was pretty rocky earlier.. Impressive. Yeah - last I heard on this guy was that he was having a real rough go. Maybe he'll be good to go on Koski's final year to then be subsequently signed for 3 years at 5.75 (the equivalent cap percentage hit)

I think Starett and Skinner are doing well in the minors as well, goalies are an enigma, not a bad strategy to get as many lotto tickets as you can.
