| The Edmonton Oilers drafted Horcoff
in the fourth round (99th overall) of the 1998 NHL Entry Draft. At
the time, Horcoff was in the middle of a four-year stint at Michigan State,
which he finished with 152 points (50 goals, 102 assists) in 155 games
from 1996-00. The center jumped to professional hockey in 2000-01,
splitting the season between the AHL and NHL. With Edmonton, Horcoff
notched nine goals, seven assists and was a plus-8 in 49 games. In
2001-02, Horcoff spent all but two contests in the NHL, collecting eight
goals and 14 assists in 61 games. |

| Scouting Report
(from TSN): |
| Assets: A
sound positional player and works hard at all aspects of his game. Has
good puck-handling skills and offensive upside. Can line up either at left
wing or center. |
| Flaws: Needs
to be quicker in his decision-making in order to apply his offensive game
in the faster pace of the NHL. Must also use his size more to his advantage. |
| Career potential:
If
he can make a few adjustments to his game, Horcoff could become a better-
than-average second-liner for the Oilers. His work ethic and versatility
should ensure a role with the squad regardless of whether he finds a scoring
touch, however. |
