There we go. Guarantees the Oilers to be in playoff spot during the Xmas break.

Sheahan-Arch showing they can, in fact, do more than just PK

Again, I realize I may be in the minority here, but I think Holland brings Arch and Sheahan back. And I fully support it. Especially if they can keep up this offensive support. They are 2/3rds of a dang good 4th line.

I think most of us are in the minority with you on that one.


Yep. Keep’em.

As for the game? Two bubble playoff teams with lots of warts made for a entertaining evening.


I'll be the contrarian here. I really liked that game from Archibald and Sheahan, but fourth liners still need to contribute. Any forward who doesn't get 12-15 points at minimum should be cut loose. Penalty killing is an important skill, but it's one that can be taught by a good coaching staff. I don't think you can waste spots on unproductive players.

Now, it's possible that Archibald and Sheahan have great second halves, and then maybe there's a case to bring them back, but I'm sure not doing just because of the PK.
