He was a mediocre flier pick in 2017 who would have went undrafted if his last name wasn't Brind'Amour. He's an average height player with a slighter frame who, at 23, has never really produced at a promising rate in the NCAA. He'd need a few years in the AHL at minimum (probably not even cracking the top 6 down there), and even then he likely never cracks beyond a 4th line in the NHL.
If he doesn't want to play in Edmonton, in the AHL, or if he just wants to play for his dad. That's fine, he's a grown man who's never going to get another shot at this. His choice.

Never heard of her, and we have better prospects anyways😆
More like the Oilers had no interest giving him a NHL contract….
No big deal. He's not a huge loss, and he's not even close to the talent that his dad had.
More like the Oilers rejected him only offering Skyler an AHL contract… lol

A talented kid looking to make a NHL lineup has the least chance making Edmonton's lineup. So why would he want to come here and be locked in the AHL.
I mean, I think he won a face off
Why would you name your kid Skyler?
Guys a bum, it's literally no loss whatsoever
This is only news because his last name is Brind’Amour
I think I speak for the average Oiler fan when I say, who?
I only know he isn't the former Flyer player's son who pushed a wheelchair down the stairs.
He would never be able to crack the Oilers, let alone an NHL teams line up.
Liam said “He’s essentially Zack Hyman who’s a little bit taller” ?? Haha we wouldn’t want a guy like that?
What as he done to hold an NHL spot?
Who gives a shiet😊
weve got alot of promising prospects as is. I.E- Matvey Petrov for just one.
