I'm sorry but I think if we won the past two games it'd be more luck than anything. The whole first period we outplayed the oilers, 2nd was a non factor and third we had to regain momentum whereas the oilers had it. Breakaways should never happen and that's on the players thinking too much. Switching systems takes a bit, why do you think I said the reason the oilers have been so bad was because they switched coaches annually, this is probably the first time they've had a consistent coach back-to-back years. Of course having a whole entire new coaching staff and systems wasn't going to fix everything in game 1. I'm sorry but we all knew there'd be growing pains, and if we are saying no it should just click and we should be the best team were kidding ourselves.
Although there's no excuse to lose to the Nucks... Oilers at least have *barf* mcdavid....
