  1. Team lost 2 bottom players and 1 top player, so basically the same, and yet looks completely different from last year. There’s an underlying issue if they’re playing this rough yet started practicing weeks early. 🤔

  2. Good thing?!?! Duck off Jay! Time to wake up!! Ya we need a goalie!! Measure your response?!?! Good one jay!!

  3. We have to trade for better D. We have two B goalies. Imagine if we have a couple of of shut down D men and an A goalie. With no cap space how do we fix this?… I doubt anyone wants Campbell or Nurse. We have too many passengers making too much money.

  4. Paying nurse 9.25 million might be the worst contract is the league at this point

  5. I’d switch Kulak for Gleason. Kulak has not looked good at all so might as well give it a shot.

  6. Sorry man but i’m afraid there’s a change coming. I don’t want to be mad at you. Defence and goaltending let us down again.

  7. Not ready to start the year. Skinner plays even half decent they win it. Quit making excuses for Skinner. He’s lousy.

  8. No defense, no goal tending, same story.
    I'll go watch the NFL, oilers management seems to have no clue what's wrong.

  9. The Nurse and Campbell contracts destroyed any chance we have of going all the way. Unless Kenny finds a way to rid the team of those, it's another year of McDavid and Draisaitl gone down the toilet.

  10. Total disappointment tonight but EDMONTON PLAYED much better than the first game which was a total disaster and embarrassment but they showed a lot of heart and spilled their guts out despite defeat and dealing physical play and tight defense of the CANUCKS . It’s still early in the season. No one is going to hand you the CUP. I FEEL BAD FOR THE TEAM AND THE MEDIA IS LABELING THEM STANLEY CUP FAVORITES… too soon. The Vancouver Canucks are playing just like their head coach RICK Tocchet who is an outstanding head coach. As a player He was a tough nose hockey player who played his game with passion and a physical presence and his team is playing like that. Hard , strong work ethic and physical and tough. DeSMITH LOOKED A LOT LIKE BILLY SMITH OF THE ISLANDERS especially tonight. Bouchard sucks and should be dealt as should FOGGLE. Nurse is not good defensively and SKINNER LOOKED SKINNED. Again Hyman didn’t play great and neither did EVANDER KANE. Connor BROWN MIGHT BE A BAD SIGNING AS HE LOOKS LOST OUT THERE. The defense is horrible still and they have a goaltending crisis . The only players who stepped up are LEON draisaitl and CONNOR McDAVID. Finally RYAN NUGGENT HOPKINS SCORED.

  11. Yet again.. Bantam B2 Goaltending. Trade for an Elite/consistent goaltender. Stop ducking/shying away from a trade that will change your team’s life.

  12. Total disappointment tonight but EDMONTON PLAYED much better than the first game which was a total disaster and embarrassment but they showed a lot of heart and spilled their guts out despite defeat and dealing with tough physical play and tight defense of the CANUCKS . They are very aggressive on checking the oilers especially on McDAVID. It’s still early in the season. No one is going to hand you the CUP. I FEEL BAD FOR THE TEAM AND THE MEDIA IS LABELING THEM STANLEY CUP FAVORITES… too soon. The Vancouver Canucks are playing just like their head coach RICK Tocchet who is an outstanding head coach.

  13. Why do they always look the same…a discombobulated mess in their zone?? Can't anyone clean it up? Must be someone available, no?

  14. Jay, last year all we heard was “we’ll take it and learn from it” a LOT last year. Two games into a new season with superstars playing a new system and your message has been the same, “we’ll learn from it”. Please get better. That’s what anyone would say to their favourite team that was loaded with talent but can’t win.

  15. Mental error? Lol Don't you mean common error? Like Nurse saying hey I need to put up some numbers, I think I'll leave my post on the blue line and park myself in front of the net. Whaaaat? No way, how did that 2 on O-MG happen? Rogers Place should play the Britney Spears song Oops.. I Did It Again! everytime Nurse forgets he's a defenseman. Same old same old. Nothing new here folks. My final analysis? Goals against? Way up. Lessons learned? Way down. Learning curve? Non existent. I'm starting to warm up to the Edmonton Boston Ullmark trade rumour. 4 on 16? Really Skinner? Do I have a problem with Skinner being traded? Nope. There I said it. In the minority. We pay Jack to be our #1. Let him be our #1. My vote is for Jumping Jack Flash.

  16. How can it be 41-16 in shots. And the Oilers still lose. Who is calling these soggy donuts shots.

  17. Fire Dustin Schwartz. How has that asshole held his job for 10 fuckin years????
