Edmonton Oil Kings have all of their NHL camp invites returning with a road trip to Brandon and Regina Friday-Saturday .

GM Kirt Hill says the Oil Kings are on their way back with all the NHL invites returning.

Oil Kings’s defenceman son Blake , 17 , could go in round 1 of the 2025 NHL draft because of the pedigree.

The Oil Kings have been blessed with top-drawer starters— Laurent Brossoit , Tristan Jarry , Cossa —but it’s hard to find studs in net.

The 18-year-old imports Holinka and Tij Iginla , both 18 , are top-class forwards.

Hill: “Holinka brings a mature element after playing pro in Czech . And Adam has gotten so much stronger and his skating has improved.
