Reggie Dunlop would be an improvement.

Both goalies were pulled. Little more leeway for Carolina though when Edmonton is averaging 6 SOG a period.

I don’t see what the problem is. They only need a mere 12 wins in a row to erase the poor start to the season.

And, uh, McLellan...? The same McLellan that was barely a .500 coach here, got us to the postseason 1/4 years and who we then beat out in the last two playoffs? Weird guy to pine over.

I can't tell if you want to keep everyone on the team who hasn't achieved greatness, or get rid of them. You seem to want to have it both ways.

As long as you’re being entertained…. Lmao…

Blame the goalies, eh...

Don't confuse me as an Oilers fan, but outside of poor goaltending, poor defensive play and indifferent forward play, including the big three, what is wrong with the Oiler's.

It seems like a precipitous fall off from last year. It's like NOTHING is working. Firing Woodcroft was a mistake that early in the season. But I predicted they would.

Unless they turn it around soon, their season is done, they will not make the playoffs. And some people were predicting them as cup winners? On what basis? They have been an incomplete team for years, and they can't fix it with paying a few players so much money.

Anyways, it makes the Flames look better and they pretty much suck themselves.

I think maybe before Holland leaves Carolina he should have a chat with the Zamboni driver / emergency goalie maybe he’s got another NHL win in him. Can’t hurt. Might get us out of this losing streak.

Yup. EJ summed it up.

McDavid is like <65th in points
Behind Bouchard in points on the oilers.
Sitting at -8?

Yikes.

roper1 11-22-2023 10:01 PM

Which one of the other 31 teams can make cap space for McJesus?

Talking moose 11-24-2023 01:26 PM

7 shots to 4 halfway through the first and 0-0.
I’ll call that a win and take it……
NEXT!!!!!!

waldedw 11-24-2023 03:30 PM

Maybe all they needed was an afternoon game :thinking-006:

Wow they look like a hockey team today:sHa_shakeshout:

Talking moose 11-24-2023 04:47 PM

Well goalie fixed. Check.
Defence fixed. Check.
Wake Mcdavid up. Check.
Hockey this June? Check.
This is our year.

Sundancefisher 11-24-2023 05:41 PM

They had a way better game. Capitals played poorly which helps. Power play was sharp, sharp, sharp.

I wouldn't be so sure, it could have gone either way!

That was the jist of my post.

Talking moose 11-26-2023 07:38 PM

3 shots 3 goals. Don’t see that often unless your an oiler goalie..

They were rocking the last couple games, now let's see if they can keep that going and string together about 6 or 7 wins in a row :scared0018:

1899b 11-27-2023 07:26 AM

I was skinning my old mans deer last night. Had the game on CHED.

Got to love that on ice cohesion finally! :sHa_shakeshout:

jungleboy 11-30-2023 09:24 PM

A come from behind win in the 3rd? Who are these guys?

waldedw 12-01-2023 04:42 AM

Great win last night, they are starting to show a little moxey, time will tell if the can maintain that level of play :thinking-006:

bessiedog 12-01-2023 10:10 AM
