Woody was fired after going 2-9-1, Knobs is lucky with the empty net goals they’ve scored cause it could easily be 2-7, and that 2-9-1 team looked better.
He's a good coach but come on man. Enough is enough. Everyone needs to lock in after this break. Defence needs to smarten up in front of our goaltending, goalies need to start making some key saves, top players need to start taking charge and playing with some passion and we need to stop with the breakaways. Regroup and get it together after the break.
Better be a world of changes before the deadline of course just in time to rush into the playoffs because you couldnt get good enough chemistry all year.
This team is not a Stanley cup winning team. There has been no consistency with this team this year at all, especially being that it is 58 games in. We can barely scratch winning more than 3 in a row. This is not the year with coach Knobby driving this team and his two favourite players, McDrai, into the ground.
Blows me away how may people say fire knoblock. Serious? 2 cup finals after he came on. It’s the overall coaching staff change that is the issue. I’ll say it again Coffey and Guluzan leaving was terrible. Their team system this year is gross
Paul Coffey made this bum look good on the defensive side of the game. Bowman, Jackson and KnobLOCK curse will grip this team till they say UNCLE! Anybody miss Kane? Connor Brown? Kulak, Skinner and Troy Stecher are doing alright for their new teams. Pittsburgh got the better of that package trade with the Oilers.
The lack of defensive output from all players is failing this team, and that’s a coaching issue. They’ve put so much emphasis on offensive line matchups while neglecting the defensive side of their game.
Nice that the coach does not throw his players under the bus. The coach is given the players to play from Management Trades, big contracts, draft system, the coach has to deal with what the head management brought to him on the ice. When the Oilers were first in the system, must have been quite something when the Coach was the General Manager, so he could really tune the team and make trades at a whim.
Penalty kill having “gone through a cold stretch“ ( 1:27 ) during the past couple of weeks? Against the Flames, in this week‘s game between the two Alberta NHL teams, the Oilers’ PK was no doubt a disaster, with two goals allowed on that count.
I think the players have given up on the coach everybody blames the bottom two lines but really take a look at it. It’s right from the top. They are absolutely terrible defensively.. by now they should know that defence comes first that creates offense, but not for the Oilers coach. The system totally sucks. You can see things changed big time once Paul coffee left he was the one running the team and they respected him . There has to be changes coming or else the orders will be out in the first round. Just like Leon said is charged from the top and he was pointing straight to the top.
We need the Olympic bullshit out of the way first off! We need to play all players…………with exception of 10,88. I think regula could play better than nurse if he saw more consistent ice time, nurse makes maybe one play a game worthy of mentioning. Top lines are not focused right now, olyimpics are outside noise and it’s plain as day distracting. D side of things needs a new voice for sure!

Why is he so scared to call out Jarry lol. He was one of several problems tonight. The 2nd goal was not a breakaway he was far out to the side.
Fired

Goodbye KNOBBY DONT LET THE DOOR HIT YA ON THE WAY OUT

Time for some changes…..
Knoblauch says reset and refocus. Oiler fans say fire and hire. Coaching staff changes imminent.
This is a defeated man
6 hits in a hockeygame? Are you kidding me? The organisation need to change attitud
He needs to go
Lets grind our top line into the ground over and over. That will fix everything!
This is a very low point for the oilers, when’s the last time it was this bad?🤣

Bye bye
28.22.8 …..and no depth , no defence
That’s all . The wheels have come off
Please teach Bouchard to play the man not the puck.
That power play goal against was embrassing
A break, trade deadline, home stretch ….26 games left.
Nobody remembers hockey I January and February
I’d give lines 3 and 4 some time on the ice.
the knobs tenure should have ended last spring
I’M TIRED OF THIS GUY.
…
What can he do ?
Last game Lazar was scratched because bowman wanted to show Mangiapane to the rest of the NHL again.
It's such a crazy mess.

Kris has lots of work to do on the break. This team is not playoff material.
