Man the Oilers are such trash without McDavid. They look like an AHL team out there against Minny and are only winning amazingly because of..checks notes..Jack Campbell of all people.
This might be what Jack needs to not crap the bed every other game.

The schadenfreude watching Edmonton is delicious. The hype from the media where so many picked them to win the Cup and the players pretentious attitudes leading up to the season with the “Captain’s Skate” and hundreds of quotes about how seriously they were taking this season only for them to fall flat on their faces to start the season is too good.

McDavid isn't the straw that stirs the drink on that team. He is the drink, the glass and the straw. He probably even made the damn drink.

Team is in (more) shambles without him.

What you mean to say is "You need a f***ing drink (or more) to watch that team".

Pens lose another game or two and Dubas might have to fire Sullivan.

Maybe Dubas should have shored up the defense. Oh wait...

Too many games to follow last night, but one thing that stood out to me is Bedard and Hughes have incredible shots. Ovie, Pasta, Stamkos have HoF one-timers, but these kids‘ wrist shots are deadly.

I think Boston has had the softest schedule of any team in the league, but their defensive numbers so far certainly are silly.

Ullmark is running 0.962 and Swayman 0.957. They've split their starts, three apiece.

Even without Bergeron, if they get that kind of goaltending, they'll be very good.
