They ttreated you like an Undersized 3-4 D-man tonight…had you on your heels right off the bat…..be ready next game. It will now be a trend you are a target. Dont let them pigeon-hole you as unable to contain the Wall.
Every game is unique in its own way. In this game Dallas was relentless in their pursuit of the puck and it didn't matter where the puck was at any given moment. However, this should not serve as any excuse for the Oilers as they have the ability to skate just as fast or even faster than any team in the NHL. Therefore, trying to "over think" their upcoming plays just won't work in this type of game so better preparation and execution is essential.
Game after game it's the same scenario: Draisaitl makes a turnover and the opposing team scores. Draisaitl (-2) is very bad at faceoffs and it makes the Oilers game even worse. In addition to Draisaitl, Bouchard also loses the puck frequently at the blue line or in the Oilers zone. A $9 million man Nurse ( – 3!) is worth a lot less based on how he plays. What to expect from the 70% of Oilers mediocre players like McLeod and the goalies? Answer: not much. Once the opposing team deals with McDavid and Hyman, the Oilers team is "done". 🤑pathetic Oilers
This was pure S£&T! They should be totally embarrassed. Looked like beer league D & puck protection & just everything. No pride or fight to correct course or make it marginally it better. Even more disappointed in someways than the beginning of the year.
Not at all on Pickard. Poor guy must be wishing he’d be back in bako!
First place is gone now. Just Sit Leon & nurse a game. They are supposed to be leaders ffs! What the actual F£&k were they smoking?

That was a large 💩
At least we know what we’re up against. This an Colorado are the benchmark.
Let's just get that home ice !
Hard lesson today. Need to move on and get ready to battle for the W against Avs on home ice.
What? No Leon or Nurse interview to own their play tonight?
Sloppy defense. Foolish penalties. Costly mistakes. Can’t happen.
That’s what happens when we play good teams
Where's the captain after a loss like this?

One of the few that showed up tonight.

It’s a senseless waste of time and money watching these losers continue to get their asses kicked.

The true #1 A on the team, not a doubt in my mind.
