  1. Goaltending is our only problem that I care about. I am liking all of these young guns tho maybe one of them will be able to keep up with Connor and Leon.

  2. 9:55 the defense needs to learn how to take the man and eliminate them from play (Florida can do that), Oilers let the opponents skate into the slot and get high danger chances. They are extremely bad at this

  3. Lazar doesn’t produce at the NHL level
    Not the type of player that improves the Oil.
    A lot of nothing going on for the Oilers🤬

  4. Curtis Lazar sucks. Barely able to hold on to an NHL career. This is a total waste of a contract and further example that Bowman has no ability to actually improve the team. Total lack of creativity.

  5. Not expecting much from Lazar but hard to go wrong with the price we got him for. That's what we were forced into right now is getting some AHLers for league minimum contracts. He actually could probably make the roster as the 4th line center.

  6. As a Habs fan looking in the Oilers in my humble opinion are worse now than they were before Free agency. The Habs have a deeper team than the Oilers by far

  7. I have an idea, let me know what you think.
    Not right now but midway through the regular season.
    Trade Skinner and a second for Filip Gustavsson.
    Why would Minnesota do this
    1. They have Wallstedt coming up, and skinner and him could be a decent tandem. This won’t be a case of throwing a young goalie to the wolves but still gives him more opportunity.
    2. They didn’t make any moves that I’d classify as an upgrade, so it is entirely possible they miss they playoffs
    3. If that’s the case why hold onto a quality starter, trade himself away and give yourself the best opportunity to get McKenna or a top 3 pick in a loaded draft.
    4. Gustavsson will be a ufa and do they really want to pay him if they see Wallstedt as the future (probably not). Skinner should be a lot cheaper, while still being a solid enough goalie.
    5. Minnesota doesn’t have a second in 2026
    I think it makes a ton of sense for both sides tbh

  8. Feel bad for you guys.. hope it works out but you need a goalie that was your primary concern. Not sure what the plan is.

  9. Hey man how do you feel about James hagens? I am so so excited. Finally the next generation Bruins are coming!

  10. I think David Tomasek will get a serious look on the rights side of Leon. If he can adapt to the NHL system. SHL has softer defense and goaltending but Tomasek has good accuracy and hockey sense. There are a lot of good players that came out of the SHL.
