The Edmonton Oilers have selected Sam O'Reilly from the London Knights with the 32nd overall pick in the 2024 NHL Draft. O'Reilly, a 6-foot-1, right-shot right-winger, was third in rookie scoring in the OHL this season with 56 points, including 20 goals and 36 assists in 68 games. He also contributed 12 points in 16 playoff games. The Oilers traded up to secure the pick from the Philadelphia Flyers, who received Edmonton's first-round pick next year or in 2026. O'Reilly is known for his 200-foot game and is expected to be a significant addition to the Oilers' roster.
