With pressure building and expectations sky-high, is it finally time to panic in Edmonton? The guys dive into what’s going wrong and what might come next.

McDavid hides a lot of their issues. They really are a so-so bunch without his leadership on and off the scoreboard.
The Oilers seem to have poor starts but, in recent years, have went on runs later in the season to save their bacon. Can they do it again? That strategy isn't going to keep working, especially when the two stars are getting past their primes.
4th in Salary for D.
The worst D in the league. Worst GA, and yet leading league in Puck possession.
Said it for years they need a solid goal tender
Flames are the doormats of the league and these guys talk like the gals on the View. lol. Shame on you Noodles.
So over the last 2 years, the oilers lost
foegele, brown, holloway, McLeod, Broberg, Kane, Perry, Desharnais ( speed, grit, toughness, size across these players)
Skinner, Arvidson – 1 year duds
in comes Mangiapane, Podkolzin, Walman, and Frederic – are any in the group an upgrade????
savoie and Ike are too small and non-factors
All those who left are now overachieving, while all those who came in are underachieving.
No upgrade in goal. No size, toughness, or grit. The D looks completely lost.
And fans are surprised??????
Does anyone else feel that McDavid should have shared that he would sign for less so that some of the key players could have been extended ? I mean, they were trying to make room for his anticipated contract.
And does anyone want to comment on Nurse and Bouchard making $20 of the annual payroll. You could get at least 5 or 6 actual players for that if you were a competent manager
This is a debacle
I hate being an Oilers fan and loving this show!! WTF
