Sean Panganiban of Oilersnation.com revealed today that incoming Oilers defenseman Ty Emberson excels when he plays against elite competition.

It seems Emberson Enjoys playing against players like Jack Hughes and Auston Matthews while preventing them from scoring many goals. The 24-year-old defenseman who has a right shot and stands at six foot 194 lbs has a great opportunity to snag a spot on the blue line and play big minutes for the Oilers as Cody Ceci and Phillip Broberg are no longer on the team.

Oilers Insider Bob Stauffer also stated this as Emberson will be going to a far better team then playing for the lowly Sharks.

«Not everyone is going to want to hear this on August the 20th, but Emberson is going to have a chance to see significant minutes to start the year. He is an actual right shot; he actually played more games in the NHL in the regular season than Broberg did. He played on the right side, and he played on a way worse team and kept his head above water. There's going to be an opportunity for Emberson.»

Emberson will also enjoy working with his former head coach from the Hartford Wolf Pack Kris Knoblauch. He played one season for the Rangers organization and spent the bulk of his time in Hartford where he got to know Knoblauch and his style and recently, he had praised working with him.

It appears that the ceiling is high for Emberson, and it will come down to him and whether he takes his game to the next level and helping the Oilers move forward.
