This team looked so good under Hitch the first 10 games - now they look....dare I say...Eakins like.

No Klefbom. No Russell. Now your defence is playing 5 more minutes against players that are a line better than them.

Your 2nd pair guys against 1st line for 25min. Exposed.
Your 3rd pair guys against 2nd line for 20min. Exposed.
Your AHLers against NHLers for 15min. Exposed.

Not a recipe for success, doesn't matter if Scotty Bowman is behind your bench. You spend all night trying to keep up with far better and quicker players.

Once I realized that this is the Oilers formula, all my hate directed to the players and coaches over the season evaporated. Though I still give props to Hitch for noticeable improvements, player downgrades aside.
