Boy, are all you Negative Nancies going to look really stupid when the Oilers go 20-4-2 and make the playoffs.
MUST WIN. MOGA.
Carolina wins 6-2.
|
This team went from a wildcard spot to three points out to three points out but needing to pass 6 teams to 6 points out and basically dead so fast I barely even noticed.
I did notice the Kings were an OT winner away from moving into a three way tie for last with the Ducks and Oilers last night.
Edit: I actually didn't notice they're now 10(!) points behind the WC1 spot. Holy is that a collapse.
|
anyone who didn't see this coming has drunk far far too much Oiler flavour koolaid, and is probably easily fooled by propaganda.
|
Anyone remember that 9-1 run when Hitch took over? Good times.
I don't believe we will make the playoffs, but amazingly, a win tonight would have us only 4 points back with same number of GP as the Wild. How bad is that?
|
What are we - 1-7 in the last eight? And with another 6-game losing streak too? We sure gave back those early gains in a hurry.
I still think the over-reliance on 3 players has meant A) those players are constantly fighting exhaustion, and B) other teams have a really simple time game planning against the Oilers. Executing the game plan of stopping McDavid isn't that simple, but when you know you don't even have to think about most of the rest of the team and you'll just dominate them? It makes it a lot easier on opposing coaches.
I think the recent sniping at McDavid and Draisaitl about their defensive coverage is missing the element that A) they are out there so much it's hard to be going full steam at every second and B) they know they are the ONLY offence the team has, so they have to think offence first, because if they don't put up numbers, the team is getting shut out more often than not.
"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
