Edmonton's D is complete trash like even worse than last year's team with Ceci & Desharnais. Skinner isn't good enough to make up for a shit D. He needs protection.

The team is soft, soft, too. McDavid was getting crunched by Calgary and there was zero push back by Edmonton.

Unless McDrai pops off, they may not make the playoffs.

Seriously? With what happened last year, people should never count Edmonton out.

Sens win 8-7 in OT. Kings are shit. Damn that Pacific Division is awful.
The Pacific Division has the most GA in the league for a few years now. Which is not that fun for the East, because that means most of the top scorers will be from the teams that play those pacific teams the most.

I wouldn't count them out so easily. Early season can be misleading. The same D that played shit for the first 18 games last season was the same D that brought them to the finals.

It's not the same D as last year. That team is soft at both ends, too. They're lucky the Pacific is such crap. They don't make the playoffs this year in any other division.

They're taking a step back this year. They've already given up 15 goals in 3 games! And, are already -12 on the season.

you already said that. It doesn't change the fact 12 months ago you would've said the same thing about their D. How bad it was.

Which is exactly on par with what happened last year. You're acting as if we haven't gone through this before.

The team last year was struggling to start, but was still good & had depth. McDavid was injured to start. This team is just bad. I don't believe they're doing anything good this year. They need a top 4RD badly & some jam upfront. They're older, slower & softer.
