The problem with the Oilers is you almost need to breakdown the Corsi and Fenwick by period. 9 of their 13 loses are of 2 goals or more so naturally the teams aren't as aggressive. A few of their 1 goal losses had them losing by 2 but scored in the third to make it a one goal game. That is one of the thing that drives me nuts with the advanced stats and the oilers. Congrats you have the puck because 75% of the season you have been down 2 or more goals and the others teams are playing it safe.
