So what is this "something wrong in the dressing room" ?? We sure as HECK don't know because none of us are privy to that info.
Nobody in that room got enough "balls" to get this team to man up?? I mean let's face it...this is an ENTIRE squad of millionaire MILLENNIALS

Cant blame the coach or upper management anymore .
I would pay good $$$ to be a fly on the wall of that dressing room and hear what is going on.

They are trying, it’s just that their skill is terrible in comparison to other nhl teams. They want to win they just can’t. That’s on the GM for building this to where it is... poor ranking / rating of nhl ready talent. IMHO.

I agree....Connor as a captain needs to step up and be a MAN......Actually, I see a timid kid that should not be captain of this team....He has the heart and skill but not the hype and motivation to get your team moving...

IMHO....

Looking good so far. Skating and passing looks much better tonight. I’m not sure if it’s all Oilers though, the Pens look a little sleepy.

I'm kinda curious how somebody can hang on to McDavid's leg for a three count right in front of a ref and not get a holding call...really???? The officiating this year is brutal. And then the empty net. I guess Pens/Crosby had to win that. Garbage non call though.

All I can say if Kassian is in our top 6 with a minute to play, down by a goal, then we deserve the loss.

Well..yeah....but it should have been a 6 on four pp if they call that brutal hold on McD...but your point stands.

As a die hard oilers fan it pains me to watch the games, lack of effort and complacency, face it folks we are not going to make the playoffs no matter how mathematically possible it still is, when you look at that collection of players and realise that there is $79,000,000 in salary skating around out there................wow.........wow

Sure glad I have my grandsons AAA midget to watch and follow, firmly in 1st place, 8 points up with 4 games remaining........ nice work PAC
