The Edmonton Oilers play the second half of a back to back against the Dallas Stars tonight. Connor McDavid, Leon Draisaitl, and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins combined for zero shots on goal vs the Blues last night, as the team continues to play a boring style of hockey that is difficult to watch. Austin Hockey brings you the projected lines, stats, keys to the game, and more in today’s Pre-Game Report. #oilers #edmontonoilers #nhl

So, how many points will Bouchard get for the Stars tonight?
Any takers? 🤔
Oilers have one of the best rosters in the league, its whatever idiotic system that the coach has them playing that is severely holding them back. They don't drive the middle unless it is clear. D-men throw 20 muffins a game that is easily stopped and cleared or turns it over and results in a goal against. Their D-zone play is terrible. Can't establish any forecheck or O-zone time. Goalies can't stop any turnovers and they face the around the least amount of shots in the league. If Dallas avoids penalties then they easily win this game. Knoblauch needs to change this system, just horrible to watch, also the Oilers road record is horrible so far which means they probably get smacked tonight like 4-1 or even 4-0. I just can't stand how inconsistent this ENTIRE team is, it's literally only the powerplay that has been consistent so far.
Funny 😂😂😂😂😂 watch a oilers game ta fall ASLEEP
They will lose tonight again with no care
I feel like when we are good on paper we lose in person, when we’re good in person, we’re supposed to not be good, on paper atleast
Scheduled loss unfortunately 😣
They suck bad
Your takes get more and more delusional the more you post. Crazy for you to say skinner and nurse don’t get picked on by the media Like Bouchard does. I’d say those 3 are the worst for getting hate. It doesn’t fit your narrative tho so let’s just lie🫨
You brought it up yesterday, but yes, I do find myself picking up and randomly scrolling during Oilers games this season. It’s the darndest thing, I wonder if I’m a victim of brain rot, or if the team just can’t hold my attention.
Hahah I approve of this message 🤝
6-3 Oilers loss
lol. Yes boring hockey. Guess all the players are happy with their raise they got and just wants to skate around.
Thanks for the video Austin. Whilst I agree about Pickard and especially Frederique (bad signing and on worse terms) the general picture I think we all know they will turn it around eventually, I sincerely hope your score prediction is wrong as well!!
I am not massively positive for the game either, but 6-2 and .835 is probably over the top.
I Think I am rooting for Otter
I have zero expectations for this game after they pi$$ed away yesterday's lead. Whatever happens happens
The Stars are really injured right now, so believe it or not this is an opportunity to get to our game.
We just need a consistent 60 minutes, and a .900 from Skinner… Is that to much to ask for?
BEST BET: BOUCHARD-2 AGAINST DALLAS.
BOUCHARD-2 = 2.1, BET ON IT, IT'S EASY MONEY.
THIS GUY'S A PEEWEE DEFENSEMAN, A FLOATER = NO TOUCH HOCKEY.
It’s funny, and I’ll come back to this comment, but we are going to win tonight & again all will be forgotten of the previous disgusting performances until the next one lmao.
It’s only 14 games into the season there are still 136 points available on the season it’s always just an extended pre season in October and November and the December January and February is where it matters I’ll start freaking out if we suck in January season is still extremely early
i miss old McDrai
Bouchard's loss of net presence should have him benched or better yet on a plane back home to Edmonton.
Mcdavid and Leon cannot have a combined 0 shots on goal tonight. Beyond unacceptable performances lately from those two.
Do you think Bouchard might actually try to prevent a member of the other team from scoring tonight?!
Or do you think he will continue to get out of their way so they have unimpeded access to the goalie and the shot?
Bold prediction Austin 😂
