Well I hated the game.
Jets looked strong and due to their struggles and defeatist mentality, they couldn't hold onto the win. The Oilers kept their eyes on the win and were able to pull it out, but there were no heroics to the game where the Oilers had to dig deep, Winnipeg just got sloppy and allowed the win.
Maybe it's me, but I think the Oilers should have lost that game.
Frederic got into a fight with a 6'7 Stanley, takes guts to stand up to a giant like that, but he needs to do more besides trying to slay a giant. Get physical on the ice, fighting isn't physical impact to the game, it's about standing up to bullies on the rink, and he did that. Good on him but so much more needed from him in his game..

Yeah, that is likely a loss if we weren't playing a team in the middle of a monumental collapse.
Just gotta hope this team snaps out of whatever little funk they are in (the depth at least, McDavid still looks like he's 100% ready to destroy the Olympics), and pray we get our new starting goalie back ASAP.
