Ya but allegedly one of his teammates at UND says he's going to Edmonton not Vancouver but no one has confirmed that rumour yet.

Bob McKenzie has been all over this all morning.

@FriedgeHNIC

Hearing word that VAN & OTT have been told they will not be Drake Caggiula's destination. That puts the spotlight on EDM.
Oilers got em.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Yep

North Dakota star forward Drake Caggiula will be signing with the @EdmontonOilers
Guess that college education didn't help...

seriously - lol - if this kid picked the Oiler then he needs his money back. who ever is giving him advice needs to be taken away and shot for stupidity. Not really a big loss but what development has the Oilers given any player in the last 5 - 10 years. Proper development.

Any way, this guy will be gone from the league in 2 - 3 years, another bust as he was not developed properly and just thrown into a team with no leadership.

Perhaps the Oilers guaranteed him the top-nine spot that no other team was willing to do. Schultz should have given him a call but I guess a kid just can't say no to money after all. :hmmm:

I can't wait for Virtanen to destroy him... :evil:

I think the Oilers are going to be moving out some name players to get D help. They'll make room for him. They have highly skilled players and could use some grit.

Gotta wonder what the real attraction is, other than McJesus. Wish him the best, just not against us.

Not hard to see where he's coming from. It's probably as simple as him thinking the Oilers have a brighter future than Vancouver does.

Or there will be less pressure on him.

If that's how he's wired we're lucky Benning couldn't close the deal.

I'm going to guess that if Benning didn't think he had 'character', he wouldn't have pursued him.

I'm going to guess you're correct.

I wonder if he'll regret his decision once he experiences a mid-January 6 game home-stand.
