Encouraging that we are targeting unknown guys with something good underlying.
I always wonder if guys like Emberson will be like Martin Marincin though. Analytic darling, never made it as a full timer.

Marincin’s numbers never suggested he was a star but he was an nhl player. 227 games in the show. That outperforms a lot of Oilers draft picks. The team tends to overhype prospects to the point where people feel they’re failures if they’re in the bottom half of the roster but that’s not really the metric that should be looked at to measure success.
And given the absolutely woeful defence the Oilers trotted out in those years, I think it’s fair to say Marincin could have been better than many of the others we used instead of him. Tough period of hockey all around.
As we’ve discussed with regards to Dellow, analytics has also come a long way. The fact is, even if Emberson never plays a game for the Oilers, flushing Ceci’s contract for just a third round pick is probably a win all on its own. Anything Emberson does is gravy.
