So you're telling me Pickard isn't now a #1 goalie that can take us 4 rounds???

You can just see the bench sag on some goals lately.
Their expressions tell no lies. They know too.

These guys would lose to a good AJHL hockey squad right now.
Your 24 - 25 Edmonton Oilers... "Fragile" is the defining word.
Weak.

Older and slower. Can’t stay in the play, bottom of the league in hits. No toughness. Goaltending is suspect at best.without some big changes there’s no chance they compete for another cup this year.

The AJHL isn't what it used to be. Across the whole league the number of commits to the NCAA is less that what Brooks and Sherwood Park alone have. No chance the Oilers lose to any of those team.
Trail in the BCHL maybe. Those guys were playing really well.
Please do not feed the bears. Feeding the bears creates a dependent population unable to survive on their own. Bears.

Smoke Eaters!! Awesome barn.. saw a game or two there.
Oil are awful.. back checks, defensive zone coverage and puck possession are all abysmal.
This type of overall suck by the franchise is not good timing for re-signing the best player in the world..
Not very many of his teammates Digging. the F. In..
Too many passengers
Negative vibe coming off this team.. nothing going on except for Leon and McD
Too bad Arvidsson, Skinner, have a NMC's.
McDAVID! Oh YEAH Baby!! (Thank you Lord!)

Report from Oilers that they are shutting down Ekholm to recover from illness.. might explain why he hasn't been himself the last few games.. from Staples
