I can't believe the Chicken Little's are coming out after the first regulation loss in 12 games.
Just calm down.
|
No kidding!!
They have been one of the best teams in the league since just before Christmas. It was their 4th game in 6 nights while on this road trip. So they looked completely out of gas. Did I expect a better result yesterday afternoon? Of course I did. But all is not lost.
|
The chicken littles have always been here pointing out the schedule, obvious outstanding issues that will limit the team, and desperately trying to find solutions.
|
The team just embodied Leon yesterday. That’s all there is to it.

While he may be dealing with some nagging injury, I think we're also going to do this thing every time Draisaitl is not scoring at world-beating rates where we over-analyze him. He's never going to look like he's flying around out there, and part of his game is phenomenal passes - but there are always going to be some that get picked off. He's exactly the kind of player that Edmonton Oilers fans always (wrongly) accuse of being lazy. We do love the guys that just churn their feet endlessly, even if they get nothing done.
The team has been playing him a lot with Derek Ryan lately, so he hasn't had the best set-up to succeed in some of these games.
He's definitely levelled off though - I have him in a keeper pool and it's noticeable how much less he's scoring there. Fortunately the team's depth has really picked it up lately, which has taken a level of the pressure off. Unfortunately for me, my keeper pools depth guys haven't picked up the slack, so I really hope Leon takes off again soon. I had been hoping he wouldn't get to the All-Star game...
