Lavoie, 22, is coming off of a solid season with the Bakersfield Condors. In 61 games with the American Hockey League (AHL) squad, he had 25 goals to go along with 45 points. It was a notable step in the right direction for the Oilers prospect, and now he will be aiming to build off of it in 2023-24.
Lavoie will be looking to make the Oilers' roster at the start of the season. If he has a strong camp, he certainly could be in the mix for a bottom-six role this fall.
