This COULD BE A MASSIVE CHANGE For The Edmonton Oilers
The Edmonton Oilers defense got the boat rocked today, as our Head Coach threw together some drastic changes when it comes to the d pairs. Let’s discuss today’s lineup news! #EdmontonOilers #Oilers #NHL
Love putting desharnais with nurse I think he deserves it but I’m not sure splitting bouch and Ekholm up is a great idea rather see ceci and kulak together
I’m not sure about bouch and kulak and ceci with eky but knoblach has my full trust we’ll see how this runs. I like how he’s willing to experiment let’s hope this works.
kk is messing with the lines like all ex coaches. our d has been good. not a+ but a-. no need for big change. what is needed is the forwards. that is why we need another center…
This is a terrible idea. I understand Vini and Nurse paired but in no way should Bouchard and Kulak be a pair. They’ll get stomped in their own zone and won’t be able to break cycles….as well why on earth are the oilers looking at Tanev? It will cost them a first and he’s too injury prone and he is not under team control past these last few months…
Ceci is on the special menu these days!! Joke! This so called media or Pondis have no clue about the game.. before you call out Ceci’s name, where is Nuge? Where is Kane? Where is number 29?? That is our problem..
This strikes me as a trial run to see if ceci is tradable. If deharnais can play with nurse, and kulak is capable of holding the Fort with Bouch, we can say ceci might be expendable. Ekholm can play with anyone.

Do you think enough time has passed that Adam Larson might be willing to come back. Seattle is not making the playoffs
I get moving Cody. But splitting Bouchard and Eckholm is not what I want to see.
Bouch on 3rd line?
Great ep. Nice cut lookin good. Let’s go oillll
No one talks about neimelainen anymore. Is he regressing?

Imo the best D pairings might be? especially for the playoffs….
Ekholm Cece
Nurse Vinny
Kulak Broberg
Bouchard (PP only)
I hope we pick up Tanev!
Congratulations on the 15 🎉🎉🎉 But stop with the shorts they are pretty brutal.
This confusing me is an understatement. I could see Bouch with Nurse, Vinnie with Eks and Ceci Kulak.
I think they're sort of demoting Bouch, as a wake up call.
Desharnais played very well against Vegas, Bouchard did not. This may be a way to let Bouchard know that was noticed.

I kinda think Holloway McLeod foegle is the true 2nd line now
It's too bad Broberg couldnt be under the tutelage of Elkholm as his D partner…..I think they would make a heck of a duo.
Not sure if Kulak is strong enough defensively to cover for Bouchard's defensive weaknesses.
Ceci is on the special menu these days!! Joke! This so called media or Pondis have no clue about the game.. before you call out Ceci’s name, where is Nuge? Where is Kane? Where is number 29?? That is our problem..

I’m sorry but desharnais is terrible. They need to get rid of that guy.
