Looking like a definite possibility. Oil look horrible out there.

Bye bye Woodcroft.

Should never have started the season after getting out coached in the playoffs last year. Holland will be gone by the end of the season as well.

It must make losing 3 straight to us sting even more. Ask your local Pharmacist. I'm pretty sure they have a creme for the butt hurt you're experiencing. McDavid probably even endorses one by now.

Not Holland instead?

Facts. Woodcroft lost that series against Vegas last year. Stubbornly refusing to go with the hot goalie at the moment. Skinner was fatigued and maybe couldn't handle the pressure of the playoffs. Campbell was clearly on a heater and should have started after playing lights out replacing Skinner for the second time!

Not Holland instead?

Both sounds even better. Holland didn't do enough in the offseason. Time for Katz to prove he wants a winner and clean house.

This is the time, NOW!

Sincere question, who is out there would be your ideal replacement for Woodcroft? I’m all for cleaning house, but if it’s a move just for the sake of a move, I’m not sure it’s going to do anything.

Jack Campbell loses to the Canucks again, 4 goals on 20 shots.
Edit:
Forgot to mention it was the Abbotsford Canucks

Right now it appears that nobody is running the bench, doing nothing would only waste another year of prime McDavid.

Boudreau maybe. Maybe a GM willing to make a blockbuster trade. This team is so strange. Really think they need a big shakeup. Trade some elite offense for some defense/goaltending.

Elite Offense: McDavid, Draisatyl

Regular Offense: Kane, Hyman, Nuge

Who you trading? and what do you expect to get for it?

EDM can still make the postseason. If they were in the East it would already be over. Zero chance. West isn't deep. But without better goaltending, it won't matter.

Jeebus WTF is going on in EDM?

Wow.
Remember when people thought the oilers were going to win the west?
Ouch

Remember when STL was dead last on January 1, 2019 and won the SC in June 2019? Put your money on the teams that look good in November and you'll lose more often than not.

Remember when that happened once in the history of the NHL.

Bye bye Woodcroft.

You might need to bring in a veteran, hard nosed coach who knows how to get a team to play defense. Is Hichkock still alive?

Today's day is November 10th, 2023. My point that you clearly can't grasp is that a team recently has overcome worse odds to win a SC. So dismissing any chance for EDM is quite reactionary. November 10th, 2021 the Colorado Avalanche were 25th in the league. Won SC in June 2022. Had to go back a whole two seasons to find something similar happen. Further illustrating my point from only two seasons ago. PIT in both 2009 and 2015 went on to win SCs with worse postseason chances than EDM has now. If EDM plays at a 105 point pace from here on out they make the postseason. They finished with 109 points last season.

Oh, so now we're going from dead last to out of the playoff race. I guess that's all you have to cheer for since your team is the biggest joke in the NHL.
Losers cheer for losers.

Maybe if written in crayon font it would be more comprehensible to you, but I'm clearly a Pens fan. Why don't you put your life savings of $34.52 and put it on the Oilers to miss the postseason given you are so overwhelmingly confident. Nothing could wrong on that bet.
