After going to the SCF (ONLY allowing two powerplay goals scored against them, iirc) every single western team with playoff aspirations has watched the tapes on the soilers, and modified their play accordingly.
Gone are the days that the rest of the teams would laugh at EDM's inability to put up a wall. Unfortunately for EDM, however, they've revealed their playstyle and teams now know how to combat it. They've lost a LOT of their pieces that contributed with speed off the rush. Factor in that teams have the book on the soilers play, it won't be such a walk in the park for them this year.
Ego ‘s are too big ….Skinner ‘s mojo is “fragile” …..McJesus going to get crucified this year’s failure and then .Dr. Dri just wants out of the frozen wasteland called Edmonton ….he will be a New York Ranger …..next year

Oilers just need a Glen Sather type coach
or get grid of skinner and nurse?
Don’t worry about the oilers
leafs -oilers-canucks-avs lost ,what a day
It’s about the defense usually.
Coaching, coaching, coaching.
I'm not surprised at all. Winnipeg has the best 3rd line in the NHL, and the Oilers didn't have an answer.
Both 🙂

nurse and is ridiculous contract unless he slaps on the pads and goes 1.87
They need to keep it simple until they can play how we know they can.
Lots of studying to do, and skating until the next game.
Biggest problem is how good the Winnipeg Jets are
Defence is unfortunately worst than last year
Nothing out of the ordinary. They lost. They’ll bounce back. It only game “1”.
Nurses Contract ruined the oilers 😂
calm down it's the first game. They were at the basement of the NHL in november and ended up 2 goals away from the Stanley Cup.
They looked really off. Their timing looked like a Game 1. Luckily they play Chicago next.

Wow …HEY TSN …all these segments talking about how the one team is doomed but …
