No System?

I just don't see anything that looks like it. When you watch the Kings break out, its strong side winger, center support, weak side winger provides mid ice option and weak side D backs up far side incase the puck misses.

The Oilers send the D up in strong side wingers spot, center is at the blueline, weak side winger never crosses into the middle for support and weak side D is picking his nose.

Well that wasn't very nice.

It's okay. We're friends.

Yeah....

Arco, Acton, Yakimov, Gordon will be just fine.

YAAG

Sweet acronym...sums it up actually.

I've been saying this for years but everyone crapped on me.....

1. Trade your 1st rounder all ready... It's disqusting to see you consistently picking top 5. That alone will Fix the "losing is acceptable because there's a reward at the end".

This team will not be the Blackhawks or Penguins with their drafting... Frankly there was no malkin, Kane, toews in edmontons big draft years

I can only imagine how toxic that dressing room is after being the junior team of the NHL for the past how many years.. Who asks for a trade first?

Can you honestly say Mcdavid or Eichal want to go to the oilers?

What an embarrassing train wreck...

"u shoulda done this!!"

The guy from Abbotsford has been pretty successful with youth, can't remember his name.
- Yeti1181

Graham James is from Abbotsford?

Is he? Not sure that's a slam dunk fact . Pretty sure Minnesota has a far superior D than Edmonton.
- Jeropotato

Their team in general is a pretty sound defensive squad.

but he's no good either.
you want nhl coaches. not "rookies" I thought
- hugefemale dog77

At least He had some time coaching some of the Oil players,which still is a better resume then Eakins.

That's Eakins for you scratch your best dman and bench your 2nd best.
Might already be time for McDavid pics

Solid post. Hasn't been brought up at all tonight.

Not quite the guy I was thinking about you degenerate.

Really happy my tax dollars are building an arena for a team with abhorrent management to play in for free.

Yeah right.

- AlEx_OiL

is that right?
the barons weren't tearing it with those kids by any means.
they were all putting up points, but the team wasn't anything special. against ahl teams...

and by now, Eakins has more experience with them.

I don't like the logic here

should I trade my 1st rounder?

you seem to be preaching to oiler fans here not oiler management. Your outside expert view is doing nothing for us

You go to hell. You go to hell and you die.

Wouldn't he have to die first in order to go to hell?

Okay, you can piss off now with your snide remarks. Were having a poopty enough of a time here as it is tonight without your trolling.

We need to make Jultzing a thing.

Its either a lazy one handed stick check, or standing still while someone blows by you.
- DTF69

how about when a guy easily splits him and his partner and he "makes a smart defensive play" by barely stopping a top notch scoring chance that shouldn't have been created in the first place. Wonder where we'd be if he had signed in VAN

someone got scratched?

Eakins is at fault??

Trying to do too much
- Ihatebrianburke

Hall does that when he's frustrated,I don't blame Hall at all,I know is only game 3 and some fan's are going to say that....but this game 1,2, and 3 is continuation of what we saw last season imo,so to me is not just game 3.

Wouldn't he have to die first in order to go to hell?
- Yeti1181

He's got it all wrong.
1.Eat sh!t
2.Die
3.Go To Hell
4.Start a Satanic Munity and return to Earth.

Like what
