I genuinely hope he gets topline Bakersfield minutes, he came from the WHL last year, and having 6-7 minutes a game in a bottom 6 role is not enough for development. I am all for him getting 21-22 minutes a night in bakersfield, coming up next year for a 3rd line slot beside henrique

So pumped. More ongoing competition for those top 6 spots.

Sabres fan here, we're happy on our end too. He's one of 6 high end prospects we have with similar characteristics. McCleod is a different type of player and one that we need. Seems to be a win-win as long as Savoie can stay healthy for you guys. He's had some injury troubles and got jumped for a roster spot by his younger former linemate

@@ML-my8qq you guys don’t need speed. Sabres do… BADLY. We also need a forward who is better defensively. Sabres scored a ton 2 seasons ago but were still on the outside looking in because they simply didn’t have anyone to limit the other teams scoring. Last season it was that we simply didn’t know how to not lose and by that I’m talking getting to overtime or holding off a surging team. He really helps us in that regard. Sabres definitely overpaid but it was a nothing pick that we obtained while still drafting the guy they wanted

​@@zwhit5760yeah, Clouder still has room to grow and mature, and he's lightning fast. It was a decent pickup who can help you now, forsure

Scouting Report: Seems like a great kid, good speaker and by all accounts has a ton of talent. Speedy, feisty player with tons of talent often compared to Brayden Point. He had 71 points in 34 games last year in the WHL winning the WHL championship with Moose Jaw. 9th overall pick in 2022. 3 years remaing on ELC and then RFA after. Wasnt old enough to play in the AHL full time, but played 6 games last year where he had 5 points in 6 games. “Savoie is like a gnat in the offensive zone. He’s always buzzing around, and no matter how many times you swat at him, he won’t go away. You can’t stop Savoie from making plays in the offensive zone; you can only hope to contain him. He’ll pester you on the forecheck, create turnovers, attack the puck, and constantly keep his feet moving. “Part of what makes Savoie so much fun to watch is that it seems as if he’s never content with standing around. He has to move around and keep changing the angles and lanes for the defense, slowly wearing them down until they make a mistake, and he can strike.” Best of luck to Matt and welcome to Oil country!

I hate that guy he is an old set in his way guy that gets mad when he dosnt get what he wants. Remember the Leon interview the guy don’t care about any of these players he just cares about getting sound bites for his blog. That’s why Leon was mad at him because he took what Leon said previous to that interview and twisted the narrative. I hate Matheson and have no clue why he’s still here.

Great to put something in the Stables! Too many picks Traded the past few years to try and win now. In the next couple years we're going to need young guys to start stepping in.

Buffalo fan here. I wish Matt much success (except against the Sabres). I followed him in Prospect camp and I was there when he hurt his shoulder last year. I'm not convinced he isn't injury prone but in any event I'm hearing from Edmonton fans that we got the short end of the stick. However, Mcleod adds something to the Sabres with his PK and defensive play as well as his speed.

You got a decent player, just paid way too much for him. Just don't expect McLeod to play any sort of physical game....at all. He's not a line driver either. Great speed, sound positional on D, good PKer.

Good grief man.. These media guys need to let the kid actually answer their freaking questions before popping another one on him.. I think I counted like 9 or 10 times they cut off the tail of his answer to ask him another question... Just pure class from Edmonton sports media....

Sad to see Matt get traded. We got something we needed back and frankly.. we have so many players like Matt trying to crack the lineup.. Bensen did, but we still have Helenius, Kulich, Ostland, Rosen and Wahlburg all trying to crack the lineup and we can't play them all.. we need the role players too and McLeod fits that.. Good luck Matt, hope to see you in the NHL soon..

Looking forward to October and next season looks to be a good one for the Oilers, go for that cup
