Hmmm. I’ve watched that same game way too many times. Used to need Skinner or Campbell in net to make it happen, but Bowman managed to find a goalie that is both of those guys at their worst in 1 body.

That whole game was amateur hour. Jarry is garbage. Nurse is absolutely brutal still. Bouchard had a rough night, but I'll give him a pass. Ekholm too.
Thought the bottom 6 guys looked decent. That's encouraging at least. Whatever - assumoing the Ducks don't come back, we'll be at worst tied for 1st with Vegas with 4 games to go.

score 5 goals and lose.. pure Oiler
That defence other than Ekholm is a defensive tire fire.
Murphy is slow as crap but at least you can see he thinks the game properly
Walman .. slow, lazy, dopey liability.. no offence .. unless he is dealing with a major injury Oil need to find a way to unload that pending 7M boat anchor contract..
Nurse.. dopey liability.. no offence.. he is what he is.. no hope of reform
Bouchard .. dopey liability (at least he adds some offence)
Did you see Ekholm track down and eliminate Cooley on that break away?
Holy crap..
Cooley is ranked at the same max skating speed as McDavid 39 kmph and Ekholm gained ground on him.. !!!!!
Wish we had 4 more Ekholms 😪
We need upgrades at defence.. some how.. some way
Problem is I don't even think Oilers think its an issue that needs to be fixed.. they actually think they have the right guys.. 😓
Oilers need to wake up and address the problem

Dach looking like he can take a job..
Kapanen is starting to look ineffective.. his contract year.. I used to think he was one of the Oilers better forwards.. he's devolved in the last couple months..
The kind of player you under value the market price at contract time.. or it'll bite you.
