Down early, not much scoring support, and the bottom 6 got caved in, along with a couple pairings on D. Koskinen makes 2-3 huge saves then lets in a couple from distance, high glove that he should stop. I checked the 3rd, couple for Leon on the PP, but a poor to mediocre effort throughout the lineup.
Did not expect this team to go sub-500 on this 5 game road trip. Disappointing.

The Bottom half of this team has been just dreadful. Ryan now is -10 and on the ice for 13 ESGA in 15 games. That's incredible. His line almost nullifies the positive impact of the Draisaitl line.
I suspect coaching is part of the problem and that the Oilers are asking the bottom six to take no chances and just try to protect the house with the idea that if they can break even, then the top six being as dynamic as they are gives us the wins. But it's a bad strategy - it's basically playing the defensive shell whenever they go on the ice, they get caved in and we aren't even close to breaking even. That's the only way I can figure it when the team continues to cycle in new guys in the Bottom 6, including some guys who were successful elsewhere and then they continue to faceplant no matter who we put in.
I'd try some new combos, but I'd also make sure that they know they have the green light to try to create offence too. I mean, they're generally playing against the other guys lesser lights, so they should have some opportunities.
