The Oilers are soooo slow. Montreal is making this team look like glaciers and pylons.

Show the eff up, boys.

Extra slow start to this one for the good guys. I know it's still early in the season, however the organization has committed to Knoblauch as the coach. If this super super old man in cement boots start to the season continues, I wonder if they'll blow this nonsense up with a big trade partner like Buffalo or Toronto.

Nurse looked good playing 4th forward for a goal. Then he went back to being terrible at playing D.

Poor Brett Kulak. Gets put out there back to back with Nurse and Ekholm. Just brutal having to baby sit those two.

Montreal is a much better team than the Oilers right now. They deserve to be up in this one. If they can find a legit starter, they might do some real damage in the postseason.

The Oilers aren't even in the same league as the Habs right now.

This is a classic oilers meltdown. Goaltending mediocre and skaters horrible to ensure a disaster.

This team needs a solid collapse to realize the season has finally started. Most of this group still think they are playing preseason games.

Gross hockey... just gross hockey.

Lol (9.)25 is basically unplayable. Just a total disaster every time he touches the ice.

The Oilers need to part ways with Nurse in the worst way. We can't afford to have two complete defensive busts on the back end.

This is the end of the road, Darnell. Find anyone to take his albatross of a contract.

Welp, powerplay saved the day for once. And took advantage of Montreal going into their own panic mode.

In general, it's nice to see some new young guys names on the score sheet often this year. Not just a team of old farts this season.

Man does having Wallman back make a world of difference for this team.
