First.
Not the start I thought they’d begin with. They look like they’re trying to do too much 😬. Also, just fire the goalie coach already.
They better score many and win big tonight! It's a perfect matchup tonight to wake Oilers up! They better dig in early tonight!
They look awkward at both ends of the ice, even McDavid. Screening the opposition goalie (not your own) will result in a few of those 30 plus shots actually reaching the back of the net.
I am not happy with the start, but all the changes have to affect a team and coming off such a big year, so not worried, will just wait until things come together.
31 views in 7mins, bros never falling off. Thanks for the updates again Pat! Awesome content as always!. Disappointing start to the season again 😢
The top 6 has no firepower in the first two games…all frozen beasts without any offensive threats on the ice…
Thanks a lot Patrick for the latest update about the Oilers. Best channel for the latest news. Regards from Germany.
Should I even watch the game tonight against the Flames.
Same oilers when they struggle. No line up at the blue line, give as much space as anyone wants to any high scoring area they choose, while the dmen skate backwards and make sure they arent even in stick reach. On the other end, they line up at the blue line and are constantly wacking anyone who goes anywhere except the wall
Having patience over here ✋🏼😂 LGO
not to sound dramatic or anything but this is kinda a must win. You lose, someone is getting fired, waived or traded
Am I worried? Somewhat
Losing 3 defenseman is tough for this team. Ceci, Broberg and Desjharnais. Ceci and Vincent had some good chemistry and Vincent Broberg were a big loss.
While the guys will get better with time, I am worried about the size we lost. We are no longer tough to play against
We lost 3 6 foot defenseman. And replaced them with 3 undersized ones.
Even if Emberson, Stecher or Ty get a lot better, I dont know if any of them are hard to play against
Vincents toughness allowee Ekholm and Bouchard to be more offensive and calm. Nurse having to be the toughest guy in defenseman leads to his bad penalty taking and possible injuries
A trade is inevitable to sure up. Maybe we get Shattenkirk.
But we need some toughness.
Im not worried about the offense. The better the defense is the better the offense gets
I think if the boys could of capitalized on some of there chances in the 1st the game would have been a different story. The refs 2 a certain extent played apart in the boys MOJO as well.
It's only 2 games………….? we are not firing on all cylinders, we need to be better everywhere. I have never been confident with our goaltending, including last season i hope they can find there game. Iam confident that Knobs will figure it out. GO OIL !!!
I never give up hope. And it's only been two games so it's waaaaay too early to panic. That said ,I honestly think the boys are going to regret changing the core from last year so much. I'm no hockey expert and I understand that some of the new acquisitions have a ton of talent but I do feel the younger up -and-comers on the team that left added a spark and energy to the team that seems to be missing. Anyway go Oil!
My main concern, is goaltending. The skaters, there are many new faces, and that does take time to tighten up. Skinner……… the defense hasn't done him any favours, sure, but he hasn't done them any favours either.
I really don't care that he limped his way to G7 of the SCF last year. He is as unreliable as they come.
Just hope the team meshes soon. Don’t want to be behind in the points race too early.
