One thing that has not improved since Manson has been the PK. I'm ready put money on this team not making the post season. They are a joke.

I’ll bet you a grand.

I want in on this action too!
The Oilers are going to make the playoffs. The West is pathetic this year so far. There are only six teams in the black for goal differential (as opposed to nine plus two even in the East). The Oilers are one of those teams (along with Vegas, Dallas, Colorado, Winnipeg and Seattle). There's so many weak teams that even the ones who seemed to position themselves this summer for Connor Bedard, like Chicago and Arizona, can't separate themselves from the pack to sink in to the mire.
The Oilers are 6th in goal differential, 6th in points, 7th in points percentage and that's while playing below expectations for the bulk of the season. If Woodcroft can make some systemic adjustments and get a little more even performance from the group, especially on the PK (but also 5v5 where they're mediocre so far), then we'll vie for a division or conference title, never mind missing the playoffs.
So if anyone wants to make that $1000 bet that we're going to finish outside looking in? I'm ready to shake hands!

I'd take that action too.
Speaking of betting, I'm not a sports bettor, but I do play a lot of online poker, and my usual site started up a sport betting section and gave me some free bets, so I was just perusing the NHL bets. I was amazed that they gave 5 to 1 odds for the Red Wings to beat the Rangers on this past Sunday. It seemed too good to be true--I think any NHL team will beat any other NHL team 1 out of 5 times, so I would take that bet all the time for any match-up. What made it even stranger, is that the Wings and Rangers actually had similar records at the time. I'm still not sure what the odds makers were thinking.
Anyway I used my free bets on that game, which the Wings did win and they paid me my money. I haven't seen odds like this since, so I'm almost wondering if it was a mistake.
Edit: Ok, I just figured out why I got such good odds. I made the bet after the first period when the Rangers were already winning 2-0 (I didn't realize the game had already started). I just realized the site accepts bets mid-game. Now it makes sense--guess I just got lucky.
