I can't for the life of me, understand how there are any teams this close to us in the standings?? I absolutely hate the Oilers. I mean, it's one thing to point out that they are weak defensively and between the pipes, but how in gawd's name is it that they can't score either? With that firepower up front, there's no reason why they can't put the puck in the net at least. :rant:

Oilers.

It's sad that they aren't even better than Ron Wilson's Leafs...that team sucked but at least it scored a lot of goals and was exciting to watch run and gun.

if the blueline can't pass the puck up to the forwards, it's gonna be hard to score.

Oh right... The Oilers play the Canucks for their last games of the year.... That will be a big night

I can't see the Oilers winning. They are clutch when it comes to losing.

I just hope they can sneak in a couple of OT losses.

Leafs really need to pull the plug here. With the Oil putting on a tanking clinic, maybe guys like Kadri, Gardiner, Bozak need to be called into Lou's office for a "visit".

Also the Oilers had possession in the Ducks zone for a good 20 seconds with under 90 seconds left before McLellan finally decides to pull the goalie? What a joke.
