Sadly, this group doesn't have a good enough 12th F in their system. Woody should go back to 11-7, and utilize his "strong spine" where he has 1 of the big 3 on ice at all times at C and run: 97, 29, 93 down the middle with the wing pairings as: 37-18 91-28 55-71 13-10 WAKE UP!!!
Team relies too much on pp goals.. if they somehow dont score in the first 10 mins of the 1st period they just give up and expec the top 6 to win it somehow. Every team that plays against oilers know who theyre up against and put more effort on defense and offense. Broberg reads the ice better and makes safer plays compared to Desharnais. All vinny brings is size and has no IQ making good plays and doesnt even take shots from blue line. Lot needs to be fixed and this "take care of the days business" strategy isnt making any difference. Win 1 lose 2.. no consistency. You have 3 100 point players sorrounded by other big name forwards yet we play with no urgency or compete against teams that dont have the same calibre of players

The new system is not working. Go back to the old system from last year
I'd like to see mcdavid Holloway hyman, draisaitl McLeod brown, nuge Kane fogele. But I'm a nobody so nvmd 😊
Enough with the whining about the system. Lack of effort, which has been the main culprit in half the games, has nothing to do with systems.
Coaching decisions lost the series against Vegas. And now this disaster. This guy needs to be gone.
They need to go back to the system they played last year!
Kulak may need a stint somewhere. Abysmal!
