Look. After every loss everyone in the organization speaks in baby pablum talk. Yes, they all say, we need to clean up the mistakes. Hang together. Stay the course. Well I am sick of this sanitized ##%*. Itās been YEARS of āclean up the mistakesā. In my opinion no one in the organization holds anyone accountable.
The defence is awful. Every analyst, from 630 Ched to TSN, says so. Who leads the D? Nurse at $9m. And Campbell has been inconsistent, at $5m. For those dollars they can afford a pablum publicist.
In my opinion, trade Nurse and just cut Campbell. Go with Skinner and a couple of tough D. Forget the BS of trading the little guys. They donāt even get enough ice time to show what they can do.
Woodcroft should go. He's naive, doesn't adapt and inherited a pretty good situation that people say he's the reason it worked out. The message extends to how they play, and rn they have a lot of denial that it'll work out, but they aren't making changes, adjustments which is what good teams do.
You never mentioned the truth of whatās really going to happen, and thatās the 2 players youāll cry about when they ask for a trade. Except nobody will want Leon so youāre stuck with him and Connor will walk and itāll prove my point that Leon is useless with McDavid.
Itās all or nothing time. We need a goalie and a top 4 RD upgrade on Ceci. Pay to unload Campbell and use the cap of D. Trade our 1st this year and next and Bourgault or Holloway. If we canāt go for it with Draisaitl and McDavid whatās the point in not blowing it all up.
If they fire Woody Iām gonna be on my last straw with this team and thatās saying something considering Iāve been a fan since 92 and have seen some of worst times this franchise has seen and Iāve stuck with it
I think a goalie coach replacement is definitely something to look at. maybe the new one can find new ways to inspire our two goalies. also think we need some changes in the bottom 6. gagner was a good change in my opinion. but we need some defense and some fresh energy in the bottom 6 along with gagner. 1 maybe 2 players and one or 2 defensive changes.
If Dustin Schwartz isnāt gone by the end the season, theyāve made a mistake. The goaltending is such a mess. Stuart has potential but isnāt ready to be a starter, and Jack Campbellās time has passed. They need to get a good, solid, consistent goaltender, and make Skinner a backup. Campbell just isnāt the goaltender they need, and honestly, I donāt think he ever was.
Quenneville used almost the exact same System in Chicago to win his Cups as the Oilers are trying to use today, it is called an NHS-Adjusted-Hybrid. He could walk in not miss a beat and be an instant Playoff upgrade , I might throw the Farm down in Vegas if Joel showed up sooner than later.
I usually donāt comment but Iām gunna say ceci needs to go, the last year he hasnāt even close to second line D and send Holloway to Bakersfield, give another strong D from there a chance to impress, and Iād also be sending Campbell and skinner down each at different times for conditioning , Iād also say signing Bouchard to that 3.9-4 million deal was a terrible idea, if I was holland i would have said 2-3 years back to back of stellar play then you get that type of a deal, cause letting Kostin, bjugstad go to sign Bouchard has shot them in the foot pretty hard!!
I would dump brown before his 10th game; trade bouch for a real dman, and think about moving Leon. There wonāt be enough money for him anyways , so start thinking about it.

We need 3 and 4 line hard working, in the trench guys, not scorers
I think a new goalie coach will do this team lots of good. Itās just time for change, Dustin Schwartz has to go.
Just a SHOCKING start. Something needs to happen. What that is, I have no earthly idea.
why cant we bury campbell in the minors? he doesnt have a no move and we get 1.25 mil cap relief
If they fire Woody Iām gonna be on my last straw with this team and thatās saying something considering Iāve been a fan since 92 and have seen some of worst times this franchise has seen and Iāve stuck with it
They need to get super disciplined real fast, especially around defense, obviously. No more stupid penalties.

Thought you were supposed to challenge for the cup this year,no defence one dimensional team can score a million goals but canāt defend

Get rid of Nurse!!!!

Pinto would be a good acquisition. Heās a real workhorse
Even with all this misery, I'm still excited to watch the next game. Pain of being a lifer as an Oilers fan.
