  1. The Oilers organization is wasting Connor Mcdavid and Leon Draistyl prime time in Edmonton Oilers.

  2. I said it numerous times, and I'll stick to my guns here. 3 things need to happen between now and the start of next season, and if they don't, Bowman should be fired.
    1) Knoblauch needs to be replaced. When it comes to player deployment, he is by far the worst I have ever seen.
    2) The Oilers need to get rid of Nurse. I know it won't be easy, but it absolutely has to happen. Bowman is making millions per year, and his job isn't supposed to be easy. I have no tolerance for excuses… just get it done.
    3) The goaltending mess will need to be fixed. Again, Bowman is making millions… earn your salary, and get it done.

  3. After two Stanley cup finals in his first years now everybody what's Knoblauch out??? Same stupid discussion we had before regarding the goalies… Sorry but its the players on the ice, especially the defence and here the guys who are in the team for a while… Seams like the "experts" are about to completely destroying the team now. But let's face it, Canadian teams in general are done at the moment. Why not the Oilers as well…

  4. a coach that INSPIRED would be grand, and give the players lines some time to develop their chemistry, and lastly place players in the spots they're GOOD AT, for goodness sake. I'm no coach, but that seems like THE LEAST the coach can and should do, and isn't. instead seems!!! the coach is pissing all over the players' corn flakes which is way terrible. you can feel it from the players.i could scream.they can, but the coach is supposed to enhance that which is already good; not shake it up or downright destroy it.

  5. Yay Connor McDavid your the best I love you I will always love Connor McDavid win or lose Connor McDavid is now tomorrow n forever my favorite player ever.

  6. I truly hope that you are ok Connor McDavid I will be praying for you I love so much Leon Draisytyl sucks n Connor McDavid rules Connor McDavid is always gonna be number one

  7. In a league that doesn’t have enough talent to go around, in a league where most teams have ample cap space, on a team that has zero draft capital,,,,,how do you expect it to get better in oil country?

  8. @2:02 "if the Oilers win a Stanley Cup", that is definitely NOT happening. Its possible they dont even make the playoffs and if they do make the playoffs they are not just going to flip a switch and suddenly start winning games against top teams.

  9. Next, year is the year get in the playoffs or Davidson, and the coach have to go!Bedard, who I was skeptical of, and was wrong, as proven himself, if Bedard, was a few inches taller and 20 more pounds he would be unstoppable!Help, the guy, please!No flash in the pans, just gritty talent!Thomas A.Filipiak!

  10. I’m not a fan of constant line juggling but mismanagement of trades and free agency has been evident for 3 years now. Jarry in goal when trying to secure a playoff spot is suicidal . Meanwhile Picard gets a shutout in Bako.

  11. Jarry against Utah? Ok this 52 centimetres 46 kilogram 62 year old retired Goalie will step up instead of Jarry I want ya all laughing but unfortunately I’d probably do better then him 😢

  12. 11 games left they haven't figured it out yet. If they make the playoffs there gone by the second round.

  13. Hi Patrick…. My only comment outside of 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 for 29 & 97 is this. If system play is incredibly inconsistent, I’m just not sure the continual blender theory is the solution. I mean it’s like mixing up how you add ingredients and expecting a different outcome. I’ve heard so many times from players talking of building continuity with line mates. I guess in my books it’s a sign of a coach rolling the dice and hoping for a different result.

  14. My take on McDavid's comments is that for him to publicly announce his private thoughts is a real insight into how frustrated he is. Normally these comments would be made behind closed doors at home or without media in the dressing room. With this in mind Knobs could be fired any minute.

  15. They are the ones the ice. It’s up to the players to score goals and keep the other team from scoring on them. Some players are not up to par with Connor so they need to step up to his level. They need to work on their scoring, defensive play and take the other player off the puck in the own end and to stop chasing puck in their own end. They need to become better hockey players.

  16. The guy who should be gone is amazingly still drawing a paycheque. Jeff Jackson screwed this team two years ago and they’ve been struggling to recover ever since
