The Edmonton Oilers lost again last night making their record now 2-8-1 after eleven games.
Edmonton had a promising start putting 19 shots on Thatcher Demko, who was between the pipes for the Vancouver Canucks. Mattias Ekholm was able to beat him with his first goal of the season. However, that was the only bright spot for the Oilers last night. Shortly after, the team collapsed allowing two goals in just under two minutes after two mistakes. The rest of the night tilted in the Canucks favour from there as the Oilers fell 6-2.
The Oilers showed some flair in the third period with Zach Hyman getting into a fight with JT Miller; along with Connor McDavid getting involved in scrums. Jay Woodcroft even saw the gate early after being ejected for making comments to the officials.
Last night certainly felt like rock bottom for this team. On today’s show, Tyler Yaremchuk and Liam Horrobin will break down where this team is at right now and what changes need to be made. Tyler was also at the game last night so he will give us the perspective of what it was like from inside the building.
What would you do the change the Oilers fortunes? Is it time to make a trade? does Jeff Jackson need to drop the hammer and relieve Ken Holland or Jay Woodcroft of his duties? Should they consider calling up one of the two goaltenders in Bakersfield? Leave your thoughts in the Finning/CAT live YouTube chat throughout the show.

Key card ! 😂
Switching an AHL level goalie for another, this won't do shit lol
How is this the same team from last June? I don’t understand
Skinner was worse
Why so much disrespect to the Canucks? You say it with disdain that we are 18 points behind them. They are a very good team this year how could you not see that
Bouchard is a plug. And he always will be.
Tyler tell us again how edmonton is going to finish ahead of the Canucks.
fire dustin schwartz now. hire carey price *new goalie coach
get tyson barrie back
we need a top 10 goalie to win the cup, a top 5 goalie even better. Don't get any goalie less than that
trade nurse for the top goalie
the only way skinner has a chance is to fire the goalie coach and get an effective goalie coach. carey price?
if oilers get a top goalie, players will have major confidence and all guys will play way better ie: Demko / Vancouver
The oilers biggest mistake. They forgot that the most important player on the team is the GOALIE. This is basic hockey. Any hockey player knows this. Now they learn the hard way. Demko vs Skinner. What else do you need to know. Think about it, if Edmonton had Demko, and Vancouver had Skinner, Edmonton would have won the game.
The collapse and eventual dismantling of this team is going to be biblical
I feel for Soup…he is the scapegoat for many other problems
Why would McDavid ever want to stay with a organization like edmonton. Look at the last 15 years
When was the last time oilers had at top 5 in league goaltender………..Grant Fhur
They can’t score. McDavid is not producing. They scored 325 goals last year to lead the league, against a sky high goals against of 260. They outscored their defensive issues. They have always had subpar attention to defence and questionable goaltending. They hide it with offence. Without that, attention focuses on defence and goaltending. They need to score more, like last year. And that is on McDavid.
Picard is not a solution. He is a temporary injury backup. Let’s be real.
