Liking that Hitch is putting Khaira out with Kassian and McJesus.

I hope Khaira can make the most of it

Best player for the Oilers so far....Ducks have more shots then the Kings did in the first bit we are getting saves which obviously makes a difference

Oilers win the Stanley Cup.

Nuge is great in case that’s never been mentioned

As I said in the blog I counted the 20th because hitch had just come behind the bench and the lineups and systems were still essentially McLellan

He still made adjustments in-game. By his own admission, he was technically using mostly Todd's systems thru the first 3 games because he didn't have a real practice.

Regardless, that doesn't account for the 7 points that are missing from Draisaitl.

Oilers win the Stanley Cup.

I’m sure some are back in the playoff state of mind after the 1st period

Karma for Kesler’s diving demonstration.

And the ducks think they’re a playoff team! Please win oilers for multiple reasons 😎

I’ll only guarantee you the win if you give us Toffoli and Muzzin for Lucic, Puljujarvi, Bear and a 2020 1st.

this is the plan chia had all along. fans just didn't believe

This is all obviously because Russell is back. He's the reason. Elite heart & soul guy.

So Manning is already a healthy scratch?

Makes sense....playing with some emotion....good goaltending....depth scoring....hurray for Russell

It be nice to see a crushing, but it still does not change the fact this team needs some changes

Nor does it account for why all of McDavid's points are accounted for even though he had 3 points on that night against San Jose. Same for Nuge.

Yeah and I wouldn't put it past them to completely buckle from here on out. 5-3 Ducks final.

Nope.

Reider is a dump truck, after he gives the puck up after Drais play , he freezes in his own end and coughs it up.

Hate to say it you are probally right, positivity is a rare thing in Oilersnation right now.
