And now, time for autographed card #2 in
my 2013-14 Score (by Panini) box break, this
Hot Rookies card of
Edmonton Oilers 5'9'' forward
Mark Arcobello:
The diminutive forward went undrafted after four seasons with the
Yale Bulldogs, but worked his way through the Oilers' affiliates (the
Stockton Thunder of the ECHL and the
Oklahoma City Barons of the AHL, with which he almost a point-per-game player, including a 22-goal, 68-point - in 74 games - season in 2012-13 that culminated in a 12-goal, 20-point postseason in 17 games).
He played in one NHL game last year, filling in for now-departed captain
Shawn Horcoff.
This could be the season the Oilers return to the postseason, with an attack that added
David Perron, and
Boyd Gordon and a defensive corps that added
Andrew Ference,
Philip Larsen and
Denis Grebeshkov. A lot of grit to add to their already-potent offense...
