Those sniper shots from Drai and Mc-D just don't seem to be there.
Its almost like the stars run the team.Knoblauch and Woodcroft seem the exact same
Thought he looked fine. I only got to see the first two periods, but he looked okay to me.Also it's time to send Emberson down. Just... nothing happening there, at all.
The Switch seems to be turned off....frustrating.Because neither is willing to shoot until they are basically left with no other option at this point.
LOL. No. It's everything we got plus more.That’s a worse roster than we have now.
If our top guys still aren't peaking. But this roster has way more potential.I imagine similar results

Not really, the defense has gotten a lot better the last three games, on Woodcroft last year the D was just a hot mess all the way through until he got fired.
Our special teams suck balls and Skinner has an awful GSAA.
How does this game not demonstrate which roster was better? Unfortunately last years club could beat you a lot of different ways. Speed, skill, tough, had some energy and zip to it. Generally today if it wasn't top or 4th line out there not much was happening.LOL. No. It's everything we got plus more.

Every save is an adventure.I'm not that worried about our special teams as a whole - we have too much talent for the pp not to be successful eventually.
Same with the PK. Nuge and Rico are both legit pk centers, and then you got Brownmark, and Ryan and Hyman are pretty legit too.
Idk it has to turn around basically - the units are filled with guys who've done it at Elite levels for years.
I also think the biggest piece of the pks struggles is we aren't getting saves - the pk tonight is the perfect example, not much the unit could have done exactly.
Skinner though... I don't have faith in Stuart Skinner at all.
Couple plays out of 16 and a half minutes seems whatever to me. Moreso considering nothing hurt them.Had a pretty bad turn over in the 2nd and then a miscommunication with Skinner behind the net that almost gave Dallas a goal but Arividsson bailed them out by blocking the puck from going in the net.
spending money on those guys isnt the reason they couldnt afford the other 2 by the way.Should have matched at least 1 guy and not wasted money on guys like Emberson and Dermott. We really should look at moving Arvidsson sooner rather than later if its even possible. Just isnt a good fit thus far. These are the type of teams you'd expect Arvidsson to thrive in. He didn't piss A drop the entire game. Bench his ass
Oilers will make playoffs. Don't know what they do once they get there. We need some more grit in lineup. Game today sure it looked like we were running the stars but I think physically their battle on pucks was prevailing. We were winning all the faceoffs until Nuge gets beat clean on the first goal. That can't happen.I think they’ll be okay
Go figure 2/3 of the worst goalies are coached by shit hole overlord at his job in Dustin Schwartz.
Even with the Oilers being the no.1 team in the league from Nov. 12 onwards last year (so like 75%+ of the season), Skinner still finished like 36th best in GSAA.
He's just not ... good at making higher danger saves, lol.
