Regular Season Statistics with the Franchise
|
Oleschuk had a better career in the minors than he did with the Scouts and Rockies. Many point to having better defenses in
front of him as the reason for it.
I also think that it was hard for him to crack the big club because of the goalies in front of him in Michel Plasse, Doug Favell, and
Bill McKenzie. 78-79 was the closest he would get when he played 40 games.
He retired in 1984 after his last season in the minors, where he played for both the Peoria Prancers and the Fort Wayne Komets
of the IHL.
Entry Draft: 1975 Seventh Round Pick (110th overall) by the Kansas City Scouts
