I didn't see anything wrong with Eller's comments. He was obviously asked about the Oilers and he was honest in his interview... he said what everyone is thinking... cudos to him
As with the Oilers reaction... they acted like a junior team. Eakins I think took the comments personal, cause his system, whether they are playing it or not, is not working and he can't find a way to wheel them in and get them to play.
If he needs that to motivate them, like many have said, then the Oilers are in more trouble than they think they are.
Although it could also be a coincidence that as soon as Hall goes down, Oilers go 2-0.
