Sometimes he is out to lunch when the going gets tough or when he gets into analytics but his eyes still work well

I agree.
I would actually like to see McLeod and Bouchard in Bakersfield this season.
That would be awesome for the farm team and the players but the damn CHL agreement. I think because both are older they can pull a Yamamoto and come in next year instead of the normal 2 year wait.

Starrett and Montoya played the first half from a picture I saw. Both of them and Talbot let in two goals each, Koskinen one, and the last goal was an empty netter.
Edit: Talbot didn't play in the scrimmage. Starrett let in 4 of the 5 I guess.

I'm really pulling for Aberg because he has the speed and skill to help this team and I really hope the coaches have a clean slate attitude and don't shove him in the doghouse because of his stupidity last season.
Fresh slate for everyone to get this team up to the max level to perform hard right out of the gate with zero preconceived notions about certain players based on past behavior and performances.

So much for McDavid being unstoppable this year.. couldnt beat a rookie goalie and half a squad.
Connor must make them believe they are improving by “stopping” him. Just being a good captain.So much for McDavid being unstoppable this year.. couldnt beat a rookie goalie and half a squad.

Sounds like kings fans were happy with him prior to his health problems last year.
He could surprise after getting healthy and training all summer.

I've heard the complete opposite.
Friend at the game said he looked a little faster and motivated.

The whole team probably looking over their shoulders a bit more than usual. Less comfort zone this season. Probably a good thing although this could relate to players being tense once the season starts.
One gets the feeling of a whole bunch of emotion and need to show better, positive, but this too is a timing thing. After last season nobody was going to be coming in here without bells on. The thing is how long does the motivation last, and does it.
Continue to tune into this Oilers station to see all the future episodes and plot and if Harry really did marry Sally.

If the guys stay motivated and that leads into them playing well and Talbot/Koskinen are a top 15 tandem I think it'll last. McDavid won't slow down. Our penalty kill will be better so they won't have that to deflate them.
That said motivation can last...don't know about health and ability lol

Well... faster, for Looch, could still be slow as molasses. They could both be right.
You would've taken an 18-year-old Tyler Benson at 10th overall this year?

Yes... that's roughly his level of "goodness" (size/skill) in comparison to this current draft class. I rate Benson pretty highly. He's underrated by most imo because of his injury issues.

I'd rather have the team be tense, motivated and with a collective feeling that they have something to prove to themselves, to each other and to the coaches and fans as well after last season's ass-kicking.
Last season I felt they went into the season feeling content, loose and had a gentle stroll into the season as if they were going to walk into games and be better than the competition just by skating onto the ice and by the time they realized they couldn't do that it was too late.... especially with the injury issues they had on top of it all.

Never shy with your prospect hot takes eh? I think that's a pretty absurd call on Benson and I like him quite a bit. The injury issues also absolutely have slowed his development down. You can't just hand wave them away. I'm just hoping he's well and truly past them now. When he lost his teeth at the prospect game earlier I already had a sinking 'here we go again' feeling.
I agree. One of the few smart Oilers draft picks (rounds 2+) in recent years
