Just read on sportsnet that Oilers4life14 hitting puberty is weeks ahead of schedule.

How'd u do that?

I won't argue this team is good. They haven't proven it.

But people were already debating that Connor was our best player by game ten. I didn't fully agree just yet, but considering how good hall was playing and that's he's one of the games elite wingers, that's saying a lot.
What we do know is it ain't gonna be long till there's no debate.

It sucks cause we needed everything to go right outta the gates to start turning it around. But the opposite happened. And now we're in serious trouble.
I do hope that they can shake off that loss last night and stay respectable until Connor comes comes back.
I think we can make some real strides when we're healthy. But yeah, playoffs are out of the question

This should say, 'gain respectability for when Connor comes back'. They haven't stayed respectable at all, not even a little bit.

I really agree with this post. Yes, they were 4-8 when McD got hurt, but they competed and they just kept getting better. I think I have had just about enough of Eberle's nonchalance actually...as talented as he is. I sometimes wonder where his heart is (but maybe it's just the way he carries himself, who knows?). The same goes for RNH actually.

Also, I guess it is a function of being so young and literally playing boys vs. men, but it annoys me when there is a scuffle/scrum of players after the whistle and Hall/RNH/Ebs/etc/etc/etc just turn the other cheek and skate away. I think that might be part of the issue for this team as well.

On the flip side, I see the direct opposite from Darnell Nurse. He gets right in there and gets his nose dirty. Nursey will go with you in front of the net just because he doesn't want to give up that extra little inch. I think we could use a few more guys like that with what seems to be a chip on their shoulder.

Package RNH and Eberle ... what do you think you could get?
How about RNH and Yak?

Yep

This is true

And mcdavid had peaked at this point. No way he could've helped the squad any further. Neither would a healthy squad done anything to help.

You're so desperate to drive home your troll to people that already know the oilers have serious flaws


Leon > Bennett

Give it a bit of time but certainly right now it doesn't even look close. Draisatl >>> Bennett.

For sure

Bennett's actually pretty damn good too

Just talking smack to buddy. He's desperate to make sure oiler fans are aware our team sucks in case we've been living in a cave the last 5 years.

Well not much right now since Yak got tackled by the linesman last night when he slipped on a banana peel, and will be out for a few weeks. Not sure the Oil can afford to give up RNH right now with McDavid out, or until they know what they are doing with Draisaitl permanently, unless its a deal that is a Bautista sized homerun.

Hopefully a Defenseman....preferably a solid 26-30 year old veteran with some term on his deal. But really, even for RNH and Yak/Ebs.....who's selling one of them?

This is even a question at this point?

Khaira recalled and Talbot starting... Those 2 need to get it done...
