Need big Stan to sit on him again.
That play certainly heated up our rivalry for a cup of coffee. Between Creed, supervillain Hartman, their punch my face booze dummy GM, and WWE heel fake news Vince Russo, it was intense for a minute. Without their former short man syndrome coach I’m not sure this has rivalry potential. Hartman keeps the flame from going out completely.

With Zuccarello's broken testicle I notice the Wild are running Boldy-Eriksson-Ek-Kaprizov as their top line, and that's a good line.
I said it at the start of the year that Skinner's game losing goal in the playoffs would affect his confidence this year. To make things worse Stan Bowman took that defense down a notch. Seems like every replay I see Ty Emberson is getting torched. They have a stud in Ekholm, but they are going to put a lot of mileage on him early. Also Jeff Skinner is a curse.
I love seeing the Flames ahead of them. They are getting goaltending, and they have a very mobile, young defense. They moved Connor Zary into the middle to fill a hole, and it worked against the Rangers.
If the Oilers miss the playoffs I am going to laugh so hard, because there were so many people predicting them to go back to the Cup, and I couldn't see it with the team that was assembled.

Oilers will get is sorted out before the playoffs but there is no doubt, hitching their wagon to Skinner carries allot of risk.

Oilers have more than Skinner to worry about, their D is worse than last year and they were pretty bad last year. They go as far as McDavid and Draisaitl will carry them.

First step. Fire coach.
Next step trade for defense. And goaltending. Might be the first step.
3rd step, Motivate Mc David to another level.
The thing is does there reach a point where Mc David's heart (Hart?) is no longer in Edmonton? Go to Toronto or New York you are the face of everything with fanbases and managements that are invested to win. Is this the year? These leaders like him and JT Miller I don't think are in it for the long haul in the markets they are in. We're lucky that way, with Scheifele.
Right now the best one two punch at centre in the West is probably Vegas with Eichel and Hertl. And they have the defense.

Need Flames, Panthers and Lightning to do the Jets a favour with clean decisive wins over the Wild, Avalanche and Stars!
It doesn't really matter where any of those other teams stand if we keep winning.

It’s a long season. These guys went to game 7 and lost. I think it will take a while to crank up their mojo but we’ll see.

First step: Get a goalie.
Next step: Get a goalie.
3rd step: Get a backup goalie.
Then they can evaluate their D corps. I think that will give McD all the motivation he needs.

That’s what you think! Still very good chance those teams go further than the Jets in the playoffs.
Because then the jets have stopped winning.
So, your whole point of worry about these other teams are a moot point.
Also Minnesota is going to come down to earth Kap is not in the McKinnon/ mcdavid weight class.
Will be interesting to see where Montgomery ends up but I don't think the Oilers will fire a coach that just got a team to an SCF, at least not yet. Oilers just need to add some depth and get a goalie. Trouble is there aren't many good goalies available yet. They are likely tied to who they have right now for better or worse.
