Nope. Not sure how any Oilers fan could still be either.
Guess they still have those 5 cups though.

Eakins was 'fine' with the 3 on 1 goal.
What?
'We had a good chance there and then it went the other way, so I don't mind that one.'
Seriously? So as the coach, you don't care that a forward didn't cover when Schultz went deep? You don't mind that there were 4 Oilers behind the goal line? You are 'fine' with a 3 on 1 against from inside their own blueline?
Are you frickin kidding me?

Effectively out of it 14 games in. They are probably longing for last year's shortened schedule.

Caller suggesting that Kevin Lowe's fingerprints all over the Oilers
Hosts shut him down saying this is clearly macTavish's team and Lowe is only involved in the new arena, and getting rid of Lowe "will not have any effect on improving the team."
Yup. Word for word.

On CHED: I looked at the schedule and 14 games in October and I thought 12 points would be reasonable. They got 8 <clear implication that that was close> and the difference between 12 and 8 was injuries.
This stuff is beyond belief.

The good news for Oilers fans is that Lowe has won more cups than pretty much anyone in hockey, so he clearly knows a thing or two about building arenas.

I can never get tired of seeing the Oilers lose. Eakins is an overrated AHL coach that was hyped up by the Leaf media and the Oilers drank the Koolaid instead of interviewing every possible coach out there that was available.

it makes sense in the same way Bart Simpson learned French: throw them to the wolves and let them fail until they figure defence out on heir own.

Next caller proclaims that "Kevin Lowe and Craig MacTavish will bring a Cup to Edmonton in the next few years."
This is good stuff. For the poster that suggested it, thanks. Free entertainment.

Those wildcard teams have games in hand. The chances of making the playoffs are a million to one, there's a better chance of successfully navigating an asteroid field then the Oilers making the playoffs.
They're not only bad, but embarrassingly bad and being let down by their talented but defensively ######ed uberforwards.
