Knob in the intermission

“Guys I saw a couple of hits there. Let’s slow that down. It’s not who we are. Knock it off”

The Oilers have cornered the market on guys that are close to doing something good then wind up doing nothing. Just about everybody outside of Draisaitl is the epitome of that.
 
Playing like they are missing a top pairing d, top c, and a bunch of wingers. Hard to watch this game without them.
 
Can't help but feel like the top 6 would be better having Drai and RNH swap wingers.

RNH lets Podz and RV just be speedy forecheckers and not worry above getting the puck to Drai, while Hyman would give Drai some size to play with.

I think that was actually a decent road period. We spent most of the time in their end.

We simply won’t shoot, simplify, or go to the net no matter what happens, so it’s irrelevant in the end. Not like we got buried or anything close though. A moderate increase in effort and actually attempting to play in the middle in the o zone will pay dividends, but that requires brains and effort. Not a certainty.
