That Thomas goal was a pure sniper given time and space. Guy is NHL 89 percentile for mid-range shots; 93 percentile for goals (8); and shooting 80 percentile (16%). NHL EDGE Puck and Player Tracking Statistics - Skaters

That was a perfect shot that beats likely any goaltender. Let's talk about the second goal though.

This team continues to begin games on their heels chasing teams who simply work harder and skate. Brutal to see no desperation to correct a major issue in today's NHL chasing teams.
We’ve been ass at blocking shots lately as well.

Almost as bad as we are at shooting on 2 on 1s

A better goalie will have more impact than an upgrade on ceci imo....Tanev was the one guy you could argue would have more.

Answer: Darnell Nurse and Derek Ryan

Question: Name 2 Oilers that will never score on a 2 on 1?

Edit - ok there’s also Connor Brown and anyone else too, but you get the idea.

Blues would be dumb to trade away Buchnevich. The guy still has another year under contract and they are a better team than Oilers.
