I admit I haven't been following the Jack Campbell saga that closely for the last couple of years. What's his off ice problem?


I don't think it was ever rumored that he even had one. I think it was always believed it was pure psychological. Also, it's possible it's not substance related. It could be like Knight that it's a purely mental health related issue.
 
Nice to see Edmonton is seeing the benefits of strengthening forward scoring and weakening defence as a recipe for success
 
Super jinx? Kiss of Death? Or just super hype? Good luck Oilers.

I never care about predictions made before the puck is even dropped, but it's always fun to go back and look at previous predictions to see how far off they were:

 
Dumb Oilers Pound Sand
Do
Over
Please.
Sincerely,

Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers, Oilers.
 
I didn't know what thread to put this question in so will ask it here:

Did Mangiapane always play LW for you guys? Or did he swap between LW and RW on 5v5, PP etc?

Caps have him playing 1RW and he is a left hand shot but now there is talk of moving Ovie to RW (which makes no sense to me) and I wonder if they are going to move Mangiapane to LW.

Thanks in advance. Nice start to the season btw. Your team looks good and nice to see Mantha playing well (hopefully he can keep it up).

Off the top of my head he's always been a LW.

All of the noteworthy line combos he was part of featured a RW. I think he would've had some spot duty on the right side if he was tried with Gaudreau at times, for example, but nothing significant.

Naw, Mangi has played a decent amount of both. However the vast majority of his RW time was pre-Coleman. He had some RW time last year and in 2022-23 but was predominantly a LW w/ Backs and Coleman. In 2020-21 though he was almost exclusively a RW playing mostly w/ Backs & Lucic, Lindholm & Tkachuk, Backlund & Tkachuk, and Gaudreau & Monahan.
