Quote:

The part that bothers me the most is exactly what Hitch said about the board battles,


Have not been too many games where they are engaged enough to work as hard at keeping the puck when pressured or getting it back as they are when an offensive opportunity presents itself and that just has to change. They do lose puck battles and turn it over all over the ice but especially in their own end. It's true, effort and hard work are involved and when you see the lazy leon play factor into a couple of the goals last night it just burns you. What else has he or any of them got to do but give their best effort every game? Not sure, but the results speak for themselves. Hitchcock realizes that putting in that effort and paying attention to details is the only way the Oilers have a chance due to lack of skill but they only seem to buy in when they feel like it. Not many real keepers on this team from what I have seen. Every time they have a good opportunity to make some headway in the standings they choke. ( makes you wonder if they are just playing out the string because they don't believe they have a real chance of doing anything in the playoffs anyway ) This team is too weak to have any passengers let alone half the team some games.
