The AHL Western Conference leading Oklahoma City Barons are coming back to Calgary to play the AHL battle of Alberta because the Abbotsford Heat, the AHL farm team of the Calgary Flames will play a home game in the Saddledome this Thursday night. While once again both corresponding NHL teams are on the outside looking in for the NHL playoff race, their AHL teams currently playoff bound. And so, for fans of both the Flames and the Oilers, the Heat and Barons may be as close to playoffs as they will get for the second year in a row.

The number of Oilers prospects who may wear an Oilers jersey or who are at the very least excellent trading tools is higher than it’s ever been. Yet, among all of the names there has definitely emerged a surprise this year. Currently leading the AHL in scoring is a prospect that many had forgotten about and who had been passed in the ranking by younger prospects; Philippe Cornet. Cornet has played 4 seasons in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League and now at the age of 21 (22 in March) is in his second AHL season.

About Oil Patch

Lisa McRitchie is a fairly new writer, online at least, but makes up for inexperience with passion for the game of hockey and memories of Mrs. Leskiw’s English AP class; who knew they would pay off one day.

Oil Patch focuses on the Edmonton Oilers, the Edmonton Oil Kings, The Oklahoma City Barons and Team Canada Hockey with game coverage, news updates, speculation and interviews.

Although the Oilers have had a difficult past decade… or three, here at Oil Patch, the future looks bright.
