Right now, the Oilers are as bad as the Ducks & Sharks! Playoffs? Forget it! If I were GM, I’d be on the phone Monday trying to make a deal. I’d even be willing to trade the selfish, pouty, temperamental Draisaitl. The return s/b great. Goalie and a top 6 scoring winger? At any rate, if no significant moves are made, forget even making the playoffs!
After Minnesota I told myself domt get mad at dumb hockey in February but after tonight,jeez. Hard not to when the trade deadline looms large.
When are they gonna put Kane on mcdavids line with Hyman. Draisaitil and kane domt work together. Kane needs to score to care more. Hyman getting career hights with mcdavid while Kane plays uninspired with Leon.
Im starting to think we are too easy to shut down. More bad line changes and giveaways too.
Just abd hockey. If we lose to the Kings Im gonna be pissed
Undisciplined penalties, team defense gone. Games in hand being wasted. Goalies have not secured their positions. Should be interesting after the next 2 games if no improvement.
No individuals are neither winning nor losing games. It is time to go back to team games instead of padding individual stats to win a scoring title. 29 and 97 have proven to be great scorers. It's time to revert to playing defense first and make the mediocre defense and the backup goalies look great agan.
I just don’t get this team. They start out miserable then win 8 then win 16 and look unstoppable they went undefeated in January paused for an All Star break and have come back looking like the October Oilers.
Brutal back check by McDavid on the first goal, brutal overage on the third goal, kulak and Foegele brutal giveaways, Skinner not good enough, as soon as Leon took that stupid penalty you knew it was 5-2, every time Leon takes a penalty like that the other teams scores on the PP. Just not good enough since about win 12 of the winning streak, you don’t know what team is going to show up period by period.
Skinner is clearly still not ready for prime time hockey. He looks exactly the same as he did in 2023 playoffs. Obtaining Markstrom in the next 2 weeks is their only chance.
Now a goalie is top priority, if Skinner is our number 1 we won’t make it out of the first round. Or even make the playoffs…last night showed he’s not a #1 goalie in this league. Too many weak goals brings your team down…we need a goalie that can steal a game in the playoffs, Skinner can’t do that.

Time to make a deal
4-5-1 since returning from the all star break. Simply unacceptable.
I had a bad feeling they were gonna fall apart after that all star break 🙄
I thought we weree more mature than this? Why are we fighting a team whose ia out of the playoffs about to trade whoeever they can?
Thats embarrassing. Down 2-0 and Nurse sarcastically smiling at a player trying to get into a fight. Juat dumb stuff
Remind me to turn off the game when Draisaitl is fristrated too.
