Oilers Draft Pick Vinni Gets Chance | Edmonton Oilers News

The Oilers just added Emil Vinni — a top European goalie prospect who underwent major back surgery before the 2024 draft — and now they’ve got eight goalies across their system. After drafting a goalie every year for five straight seasons, the organization is finally giving Vinni a real shot in North America, where he can get more games and closer monitoring. With Andersen, Levi, and Jarry locked into the NHL, Vinni joins a crowded but promising goalie room alongside Connor Ungar, Nathaniel Day, Samuel Jonsson, and veteran Matt Tomkins. This move isn’t about panic — it’s about unlocking potential with a player they invested a second-round pick in, hoping to see what he can truly become.
