The Xavier Bourgault experiment is officially over

[@levirenfert3851]

Jackson reminds me alot of mcrimmond. Not afraid to let fan favorites walk or to trade them, flip under achieving prospects early, crazy free agent signings. Bro is cut throat and thats exactly what the oilers need if they wanna win.

....and to think the OIlers could have had Jesper Wallstedt before trading down to make that Bourgault pick.

[@VanMichael21]

Funny but I don't think I heard you guys say that before, that you think Borgault is a bust before the trade happened, but now that he's traded...... I guess the "always gotta make yourself feel better" mechanism is in all of us. Just human nature I suppose.

[@blakemcbeth3157]

Litterally everyone around the oilers knows he’s a bust, no point in talking about him until now. Are you new here?

[@VanMichael21]

@@blakemcbeth3157 before Borgault was traded hockey analysts had him ranked #4 in Oilers top 10 prospects list(Bob Stauffer top 10 Oilers prospects list) and nobody ever said he was a bust except for you claiming everybody knew and I think some even had him ranked higher than 4th, so idk what you're talking about. But hey whatever makes you feel better man.

I screamed Wyatt Johnston at the T.V. during that draft and got called an idiot on capfriendly when complaining about it. See fkrs! LoL

[@scout8424]

I wanted wallstedt, I was then hoping for Lysell, he get picked next, when the oilers pick came around I wanted Johnston. needless to say the 2021 draft was almost perfectly designed to piss me off.

Oh, that's what that noise was.....I thought you stubbed your toe. Ah... what's the use?.... nobody listens to you anyways, right? Stay focused, eventually someone will listen to your sage advice 🤞

[@rayk6449]

Too soon to be called a bust. Time will tell but it doesn’t matter now. Welcome Roby

[@devackroyd]

Giving up on a first rounder (even if he wasnt who the Oilers should have selected) when he is so young and his value is in the toilet seems like a bad idea, I get that he was underperforming, but developing a draft choice of that caliber shouldnt be "an experiment".

No one who watches the condors thinks he’s going to be anything
