Holland is just awful. Mismanagement has ruined the Oilers, who should be cup favorites every year with Draisaitl and McDavid
But Dubas is a genius and he has Matthews and Marner....and they should be cup favourites every year...oh, wait...they are.....but not really.

Not disagreeing with you....just saying.

Oilers not rolling over.....6-5, love the pinball moment before the goal, McDavid to Draisatl, to Hyman, that would have been a nice goal.

the irony in ESPN broadasting the Rangers/Bruins game today when they called the Rangers and the NHL 'not a major market' on the air last week. Ouch

I didn't think Oilers goaltending could be worse than what they had last year yet here we are. Koskinen would be an improvement over Campbell.

That signing was not judicious from day 1. How do you give Campbell that contract ? A Campbell level goaltender isn't that hard to acquire. Actually, most of what Edmonton needs is well within reach, they just have had donkeys running their team.

No worries, Bettman's major market is Arizona....lol.

Jake Allen was a draft pick away....

Allen would have been a much better option. Cheaper, on shorter term, which allows you to keep looking for other options. He's a solid and reliable goaltender who would've done better than anything they've had recently.

Wow, sweet bank shot off the boards in his own end into empty net by DeMelo for Jets.

7-5 Jets. That should do it.

Winnipeg was under seige for the last 5 minutes.

Calgary putting on a nice ceremony recognizing Treaty 7 Nations! Good to see.

Awkward that they had the drummers singing in "Red Corner" in the Saddledome. I'm sure the guys had a good laugh about it :laugh:
