Oilers could do better, and the oilers can not stop being in the penalty box.. like they need to Quit it and the defense was ass and some of the players weren't playing there roles and weren't playing as a team.. and the management needs to wake the fuck up fast, cause right now there playing as a bust.. I believe there on the point that they will lose number 29 and 97, and if they lose these two numbers then the fans will be more pissed off even more pissed when the Oilers traded 99 to the Kings…and if 97 and 29 leaves is that when the management will change and will win a cup..
Shots on goal are nothing more than a mere statistic. However, execution is a completely different matter and this is why the Oilers lost a game that they should have won. Shooting practise anyone?
interesting watching Bouchard on that 1st Boldy/Wild goal… he was ahead of his guy…then so relaxed in letting him skate right by & hold position to tip/rebound etc…. while Bouch was a perfect gentleman in letting thru… but stayiung close enough to make it look like he was trying… fortunately that other goal was called back – as he wsa teh one that lost the puck in the corner… he does some nice things – but sure doesn not compete.
this game almost reminded me of the beginning of the year, where we could out shoot them and get A grade opportunities, but couldn't finish it out. i agree on the last 40 minutes being great for the boys, and that pickard wasnt at his best tonight. but everyone has bad days, it was his turn apparently. i wonder if giving rodrigue a chance would be an option though. i know you have mentioned it before. didnt help that mcdavid hit three posts ( one in each period) either. the posts were putting up saves tonight as well, on both sides.
97 had 3 goal posts or a different game. Tough game to see so many shots and so few goals. Picard didn’t have his best game. Perry didn’t get as much ice as he should have. Flames up next. Put the loss behind and move on. The loss should see an angry team playing the southern rivals
Sounds like Guentzel might be off the trade market. I wonder if Buffalo would consider moving Alex Tuch. Mackenzie Blackwood for goalie insurance. Matt Dumba for right shot defense depth.
Why does Ken Holland seem to always wait to the last minute in his trade deadlines deals when there is less quality selections & higher prices for what is left? Free agent signings he is a bit better at not being last to get in on the action yet I still find myself scratching my head at some of his choices & the contract money he throws around. 😢

Move Kane back to 3rd line. Plays die on his stick…too slow.
Go back to
Nuge McD Hyman
Foegele Drai Mcloed
Kane Holloway Perry
Janmark Ryan Brown
Trade Cece for Matt Dumba
I think its time to speed up a trade to get dowd and sundin from caps
When is rig 72 showing up again
Or a trade for walker and frost from Philly

Definitely not the same team as before the all-star break.
