Put the hammer down on the lackadaisical players that aren’t pulling their weight, the bottom six need to step up 5 on 5, more checks and dump and chase.
I think the idea of mcdavid and Drai separated is good, but it is tough with some of the plays they make to see guys like Nuge, Foeg, Brown constantly not finish. Most good teams have their top players playing with eachother – lightning with Kuch, Stam, Point. Avs with Rant, Mac, Nich. Knights with Eichel and Stone. Leafs with Marner and Matthews for examples.
Sam Gagner has done nothing but have positive impacts, lets get him back in there and where is Jack Campbell because Skinner needs a rest mentally….not because hes weak but because hes human and we want him @ a Level 10 going into the playoffs. Thats not a knock on Pickard who is pulling his weight just fine at the moment. Contending Teams need solid depth and width in Goal.

Powerplay sucks put 97 and 29 on the same line for 5 games.

Oilers should sign gagner at the deadline. He is part of a goal every 2 games! A plus player and you can get him for cheap.
I like his thoughts keep the team together. this team has what it takes.
