Koskinen was solid. Not overly tested but he was solid which in my opinion, is all they need.
. It's nice seeing some guys on the Oilers defence capable of moving the puck and hitting guys on the tape with passes. It's early I get that but having some puck movers like Bear and Persson is making a difference in my opinion.

Koski getting the win has to be a lift for him after all the criticism aimed his way and the puck movers really give the team a dimension they were lacking before, being able to utilize the speed of some of our forwards to better effect. The bottom six is much improved and has some speed so all of this adds up to a much better overall team game. Big win! Holland is looking like a genius right now especially with those bargain priced Euoropean players ( and the Lucic trade of course ) but I'm sure there's more to come.

I am hesitant to declare the newbies a smashing success. Our third and fourth lines have accounted for one goal in three games. They haven't been awful by any means, but right now this team is still being carried by the top half the lineup, and more specifically by McDavid and Draisaitl. They have 15 points so far, and Draisaitl played almost 22 minutes even last night when they had a commanding lead for half the game.
The depth guys aren't embarrassing themselves right now (although I think Cave and Russell both look like AHLers), but they're not excelling and they haven't yet given the coach the confidence to take minutes away from the top line. That's notable because ideally, Draisaitl & McDavid aren't playing 23+ minutes a night all year. (they're current #1 and #4 in the league in TOI/game).
Special teams have looked pretty solid so far though - which is a real positive.
"Thinking that a bad team's best players are the reason the team is bad is the "Tambellini re-signing Lennart Petrell" of sports opinions." @Woodguy55
