The Edmonton Oilers have sent down two Memorial Cup winners.

TSN has learned that the Oilers have sent forward Rob Schremp back to the London Knights of the Ontario Hockey League and defenseman Danny Syvret to the Hamilton Bulldogs of the American Hockey League.

Schremp was drafted 25th overall by the Oilers in 2004, and has played in six preseason games this year, scoring one goal.

Schremp scored 41 goals and added 49 assists in the 2004-05 regular season and was an integral part of the Knights 2005 Memorial Cup Championship team.

The 19-year old was the player of the game for Team Orr at the 2004 Propects game where he scored one goal and two assists.

Syvret was Schremp's teammate in London in 2004-05. The 20-year old posted 23 goals and tallied 46 assists in 62 regular season games.

Syvret played in four preseason games and had one assist.

The 6'0" defenseman was taken 81st overall in the 2005 NHL Entry Draft.Via: TSN.ca (http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/news_story.asp?id=138638).

This should not be a surprise to anyone. I can't wait until these two will hopefully be playing for the big club in a couple years.

Good thing for the Knights. They need all the help they can get right now.

Syvret won't be back with the Knights, although Robbie will.

It became obvious as a few things happened over the end of preseason:

#1) Robbie faded a bit
#2) Rita *finally* didn't fade during camp.

The only questions left are if Morrison stays (Jussi is hurt) and who gets that #7 spot.. Cross or Dan Smith. Here's hoping for the latter.
