  1. We know Stu can deliver two, it's three we need to pay attention to. Maybe Savoie is there to kick the fourth line in the butt?

  2. Liking how the lineup looks. Tomasek deserves that chance at top 6. My player to watch is Podkolzin, that third line looked good vs the Rangers. Dark Stu pls stay 🙏
    Edit: score prediction 5-1 Oilers

  3. Roslovic hasn’t played much hockey, so I’m not expecting too much until after a few games. The mass line shuffle could be risky, as everyone will have to readjust how they play.

  4. I love the 4th line….Henrique is just the right type of player to teach the 2-Princes how to play a solid 2-way game with a hidden offensive bite. I am a massive advocate of letting Ike and Savvy develop to together and learn to depend on each other as they build roles for themselves on the Team… I believe that the investment in this line will pay off wonderfully over the course of the Season and I actually see trio elevating itself to the 3rd line in 15-20 games… Ice-man off the high half-wall threatening a true bomb (like Dougie Weight used to do) but slipping it to Savvy backdoor all day long with a nasty Give-and-Go onetime option if its open.

  5. So sick of Knoblauch demoting young players before they have any kind of chance to develop our prove themselves!! I love the Oilers but absolutely despise the coaching and management!

  6. "If you're doing good things the coach will reward you"!?! Philp out again after scoring a goal in game 2!! Ridiculous!

  7. Austin, Henrique had two attempts to help deliver a Cup, he failed, he didn't help! He had a chance. Time to give Philp and the younger guys an opportunity. Henrique should be an option. He shouldn't even be killing penalties imo, too slow!

  8. I think bako is better for development than the 4th line, especially when they aren't supposed to be 4th liners.
