Is This the MOST ELECTRIFYING Oilers Forward Lineup Yet?
Tyler and Liam discuss projected Oilers lines for next year. Who lines up in the top six? Where does Noah Philp fit into the mix? Could the Oilers be making a mistake?
I think Mangiapane will be on the first line before Howard. I like the confidence but dude hasnt even played in the NHL yet and youre gonna put him first line? I really like Podz but I think Tomasek will be better on the second line, third line is beautiful. Put rico on the wing and see what happens.
Also kinda sad to see stetch out of the rotation, curious how much an impact Ty can make.
I feel like Janmark and Max Jones will be moved. Moving Janmark and carrying 13 forwards to start the season might allow the Oilers to give another try to getting a goalie in the $4 million range (if they can find a trade for Skinner). Philp needs to be in Edmonton next season. This is a bit of an internal retooling year with the team, so this is the year to get Howard, Savoie, Tomasek and Philp into the line-up on a regular basis. Word is Hyman will not be ready to go by the start of the season.
So after skinner, Arvidsson and Henrique last year I have a bit of fear that Mangiapane could have a disappointing year. After the decade of darkness I have a low belief that guys like Savoie and Howard will come in and light it up. Could they be unreal? Sure. But I think it’s best to keep expectations at a tight playoff race this year even with the weak pacific.
boys, the community is putting a mount everest worth of pressure on savoie and howard… let’s chill. not just oilers nation but everyone needs to chill a bit and let them play it out
Haven’t even played a game and you are spitting pressure on a kid…. What happened to the critical thinking smart hockey talk oilers nation, now you are just a bunch of stupid gen z influencers
Im an Oilers fans but When Kane and Perry left, this team just straight up look soft. Sure they may be electrifying but they lack some sandpaper type of player. Frederic aint Kane, Nurse aint Perry

Edmonton did not have a good offseason. Lots of unproven players and not much proven talent outside of Mangiapgane.
Insane. 'Electrifying' is adding a complete unknown and a guy guaranteed to get between 15-18 goals on the top 2 lines??
More delusional oilers talk. Oilers are toxic organization and your club got worse . Wake up

No it’s weaker than the 3 previous years
Agree but you can’t forget he’s just come off a really impressive playoff when he signed that.

A lot of hopium.
Yall said the same thing when they acquired J.Skinner and V.Arvidsson last year.
JEFF SKINNER FOR THE ROCKET RICHARD!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Hearing "you're over it" about a guy who scored 7 goals in the last two playoff runs sounds insane to me.

‘Electrifying’ 😂😂😂

Goodbye McDavid

If Howard and Savoie both breaks out and become legit NHL players that would be huge. Oilers lacking that speed, and young energy last year
Oilers is way to light up front
Where is the grit and sandpaper?
This team doesn’t need to score more goals. They need plumbers like Janmark. He also has speed which this team needs.
After saying Yanmark can be replaced by half the price, what would make you believe Frederick is a good fit at his price for the fourth line?
Janmark is fast, reliable defensively and you wont find many 1.5 mill players better than him in the playoffs
Tyler ! You don't have to scream to get our attention.
