The Oilers Need Their Offence to be Greasier
Sorry, but I'm not buying the overused "They got Goalie'd" phrase peop...oilersnation.com
absolutely hilarious they've almost been shutout SIX TIMES in 25 games...that's almost once every 4 games!
their forward group is ranked 28th in the NHL for goals scored...that was supposed to be their strength lol
It's almost as if other teams are some how "scouting" the Oilers with magical technology in some way.
You want to be a Cup contender, this is part of it. Teams will play you with playoff intensity and they will scout every one of your pet plays the moment they see you are in a Cup Final because congratulations you are now officially on the "team that every other team marks on their calendar when you come to town" category.
The Oilers want the cross-seam pass, teams are not cooperating and just giving it away to them.
We are not handling it well, the coaching staff especially seems surprised that "moar McDavid!" isn't actually much of an adjustment when the other team is already versed on everything they should be doing to slow McDavid.
You have to have some adjustments from your coach if the other team's coach is throwing 3-4 major adjustments your way.
