The Oilers wrap up a 5-game homestand tonight against the Red Wings. A win would give Edmonton 7 of a possible 10 points, but a loss in regulation would give them a record of 2-2-1 which would be completely unacceptable. The team has a lot to prove, especially after losing to the Sabres two nights ago. Time to dig in! Austin has you covered with today’s projected lines, stats, keys to the game, players to watch, and more! #oilers #edmontonoilers #nhl

"Must win", really? 🙄
Bro you've got to stop coping for bouch. I like your content but this is getting ridiculous. Any average defender that can limit mistakes is way more valuable than being able to shoot on a mcdavid PP. He’s the most overrated player in the league, soft as cotton, and lazy. Expected goals don’t mean anything, reality matters.
There are too many passengers on the Edmonton team.😂
So many fans are complaining about individual players who aren’t going anywhere. Ever. This is the team in the McDavid era. Is it good enough? No. Now enjoy the roller coaster. Or don’t; who am I to dictate how you spend your leisure time.
We saw McDavid celebrate a goal last night. I know it's weird coming off a 4-3 OT loss to buffalo… But McDavid is mentally invested in this season again. He cares. So should the rest of the team. Pedal to medal early and we win this
I'm a Wings fan. Best way to beat us from my point of view, is having your blue line throw shots on net and get bodies in front of Gibson. Gibson has been atrocious with net front presence and shots from the blue line. As crazy as it is to say this, we actually have players that can dig pucks out from the boards now so if that's Edmonton's weak spot then you'll be relying on Connor and Leon for some run and gun offense.
are we sure picks is gonna go sunday or sat. i bet trade incoming
wow who would have guessed an older team showing its age and poor free agency moves lol. Are we really surprised?? honestly
I honestly hope they win this one Austin!
I’m going to say 3-0 loss because we didn’t get gibbon
Wings are going to win… hands down!!! put bouchbag and sloppy out there as d man and goalie… and watch 4 goals slide in🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Adam Henrique is still much more effective than Trent Frederic. Trent is another passenger for the ride.
Truth be told if this is our playoff roster either Dallas or Colorado kill us in the first or second.
Oilers for the win!!!
Sorry guys, I absolutely love the team and watch every game. We need a new coach and severely need to get rid of bodies that don’t want to compete. I don’t know how this is even controversial. They don’t respond to low energy coach. He’s soft and he’s allowing soft players and plays. It’s not just Bouch but his mistakes are amplified being a defenseman. If you don’t like my opinions that is fine, but I’m looking for wins too. Just trying to be honest about the situation.
It’s gonna get hot red wings of chicken oiler time! Oilers have gonna get lucky once for the Red Wings going to demolition game on the ice.
If the oilers have any chance they need to get rid of Bouchard
Fire knob.
Great to see Connor celebrate. He needs to find and express the joy he has for the game. It inspires his team and his fans.
I’m predicting a Bouch turnover that leads to a breakaway goal. He’s due for one.
Red Wings going to win, Edmonton relies too much on 2-3 players to win, the rest of the team are mostly useless.
