I'm a fan of Liam Reddox. Buddy was drafted 112th in the Ovechkin draft and climbed the ladder one rung at a time.The week he was drafted I wrote about all of the Oilers 2004 draftees.

Aaron Musick: Avs get penalty killed.
The Avs got killed tonight by their own lack of discipline.
The Avs took eight penalties for 16 minutes and the Edmonton Oilers went 4-for-8 on them, routing the Avs 5-3.
The Avs' penalty kill has been a strength of this team but tonight was pretty awful from the crease on out.
For the first time this year, Craig Anderson didn't look good at all. He couldn't...
