Nuge has got to be moved down and Skinner moved up when McDavid comes back. I feel like we need to call up 2 players in general for our bottom 3 or 4 line cause the team looks so slow.
Put stu skinner bak in the little league he sucks n quit sticking up for stu he sucks perid Put Picard in net he’s way faster n reads the puck n players better then stu
PP unit useless, Skinner confirms one more time his Top-Bottom-Bottom performances, he is not an NHL goalie, period. With Skinner as our number 1, we will NEVER win a Stanley Cup, no one, not 20K Oilers supporters can change my opinion. Regardless of who is defending, Skinner is a bottom goalie, if at all NHL level! And Knoblauch just about the same, whenever we get scored on, is game over, he cannot manage any smallest crisis situation. I bet anything Knoblauch will not be an Oiler trainer come Christmas. The team plays 25% of their capacity. It doesn't matter what skills Knoblauch may have, how many trainers we changed in the last X years, that the players need to 'step-up', none of that matters. The players and the trainer have NO connection, so trainer needs to go!
Defence and Goaltending were both pathetic tonight…Stu stinks in the net…Defence was barely on the ice…got outplayed so many fk times just let them circle around to score…Top lines without McDavid completely looked lost on ice…How tf not swap Stu with Picks after Stu let 3-4 goals in? Can't bet defence on goaltending! Can't bet offense on only the best players! It was a BS show tonight
This team looks dead. Now with McDavid injured. Ouch! Hope he is not seriously injured. That would be a huge blow. We have lousy goalie. Lousy defense. I do miss Broberg and even Holloway. I thought they turned a page but the problems continue. Nurse and Bouch are awful. They play like they are not into the game or season. Not good. If this continues, Knoblauch who did a great job last year will be fired. Knowing Stu Bowman, I see Joel Quenneville hired.
As a longtime oiler fan that was one of the worst displays of hockey I has watched in a longtime……..everyone was playing like nurse! The officiating was horrible as well, both sides. I’m normally not worried missing 97, we have done it before but for god sakes stop saying the team was rattled by him out, these are god dam millionaires in the so called best hockey league in the world if that rattles them we may as well fire them all and start over! It was lazy and not crisp and some would argue this is how they played all season so far! Columbus was ready to play and giving no time and space, that’s how you win hockey games!
Jeff Jackson chose veteran players over youth. Signing Perry and keeping Ryan over Philp & Lavioe, also poor management by not getting a GM signed before free agency. Lost Broberg & Holloway for nothing, and Lavioe on waivers. Traded McLeod. Gave up youth and speed, got older and slower. Im just a triggered Oiler fan who sees our poor start as a result of a mismanaged team and want to complain lmao.
Drais is a concern. Scores w McD and shows heart at times…. and really lazy/sloppy at other times… and has never been able to center a line w/o McD. Oil may have overpd for him…. w/o McD its unclear of his true value. ???
Hey Kris, the task is now simple, don't lose upcoming games ugly like tonight again… without McDavid the team should still play somewhat disciplined and competitively, at least let the team pretend to fight for every shift on ice…if Stu let 2 goals in, just pull him out…Nuge doesn't deserve on top lines, give the Arvidsson and Skinner more chances, now it's the best time to test them what they can truly bring for Oilers. Hope McDavid won't miss many games, wish him a speedy recovery.
If letting in six goals isn't on Stewart Skinner then who do we blame Mr. Coach? Defense? Offense? Backup goalie that didn't get to play? We need to care.

COOKED without 97. Praying that he's ok
This team isn't getting anywhere near the cup finals again. Roster was downgraded with old and slow players.

72 games left to figure it out. We are slow.
Seems like coach is too soft. This isn’t the first train wreck this year. Call people out! Hold some accountability!
Lose McDavid and this is what you get? Seriously? Wow!
Totally unprepared again!
You guys are a joke
3 goals on 6 shots. Great goaltending.
This oilers team like look an ahl team right now.
Get a new goalie and why can’t 29 ever do something when McDavid is down like cmon
I love our OILERS. But I am getting tired of Knobs excuses, they were so good, our team was great. Lets be positive, but realistic at the same time.
Draisaitle is way to hot and cold…..Hyman needs to sit a game to see the game from above, Eckholm needs to step it up physically @ the blueline.
bye bye ….season's over before it started….get a goalie….and a defense
“Not on him at all”

LOL. Hung over from a Leon drai bday party.

I think we need to blame Katz for having too much product in his hair. We havev to blame someone for something. Waiter…check please. 😎
