Is loss to Sabres proof Oilers have big problem?
After an ugly performance in Buffalo Monday night, did the loss to the Sabres prove that the Oilers have some big issues? Even if they make a playoff push, will Edmonton’s early season struggles come back to bite them? TSN Hockey analysts Martin Biron and Jamie McLennan join Domino’s That’s Hockey to discuss.

Is it seriously taking you all this long to admit this? We knew this back in 2022 when they got swept by Colorado
Caveman think Oilers have big problem š
Finally some recognition this is a defence problem. Not just personnel, but system. Not a word about who the assistant coaches are. Why not?
Yes.
Are the canes in big trouble for loosing to the oilers ?????
Do you realize that the oilers record of 9 wins and 8 losses is exactly the same record as last season November 18th and they went on to the cup finals stop the panic the oilers will be fine , they showed you that last season . lolš
Edmonton is in a downward spiral with very little chance for recovery. I wouldnāt be at all surprised if they didnāt make the playoffs. If they do, they wonāt go far.
I am a Tactical Systems Analyst … circa2009…I was doing adhoc online Podcasts before there even were Podcasts……..I invented the Job Description and Position and I am the first , yes you may request Consults by finding me online where and when I comment ,its a free World. Please pay attention to Marty Biron when he says Teams are Pre-Scouting the Oilers and dissecting them because thats almost a National Passtime online these days……..The Oilers Identity is Firewagon burn you down Uber-Offense….their System is a Possession based System that is poorly run and is infested with Stats-related diseases, the Oilers have been in B2B SCFs because their System even run into the ground and mismanaged is incredibly potent…. BUT….this year they lost 2 Coaches, Secret Agent Paul Coffey was a critical part of the B2B SCF trips because he optimized the Oilers System in some critical ways…without giving a Free Clinic online right here suffice to say the Oilers System this year is NOTHING LIKE the System that took them to B2B SCFs… its still Possession based but the core value philosophy and tactics have changed. This was not unexpected by Management they knew it would be a rough and rocky road and a long learning curve for the Players…its the Fanbase and Online Homebased Media thats in the dark and who is piling on individual players and or Coaches…this is why Coaches are not Benching and punishing specific players when things go south statistically — this is a learning curve..a massively high risk one to if the System as it is fails to produce. Oilers Ownership is having a lot of fun and treat the Franchise on every level like a weekend Trip to Vegas right after Payday. My god what did they do to piss off Paul so badly he took a Flyer when they were sooooo close to it….theoretically this could have been their 3rd Cup in a Row…or the start of 3 in a Row…. Mr. Coffey has been an inspiration during my career as a Tactical Systems Analyst in fact one might say he has had a significant influence on my path and on how I teach my Interns, it would have been a complete pleasure to work with him.
Get rid of skinner
the new defensive coaches and goalie coaches are maybe to blame. new systems? not working
Blame Bob Stauffer!!!
Ha ha ha ha ha. Brutal. Get it together you Goons.
They've played almost double the away games than home games at present. They have home games to come.
Donāt forget my cats will be in the SC finals once again no doubt on that āonce they play their gameā no team will be able to match them going win for win etc
big problem but can it be fixed? because today it is nurse, next day is bouch, then it is the goalieć they r taking turns to lose the game.. moreever, these bottom 6 r not contributing. all of them are minus…
IDIOTS
BOTH GOALIES and COACH MUST GO
Iām going laugh so hard when the oilers not win the chip again this year
Oilers will never win with Nurse on the team.
