This. We're totally the pre-McDavid era Oilers. Feel free to knock around our undersized superstar, no biggie. This team has no balls whatsoever in terms of a physical game, it's embarrassing.
This is starting to feel a lot like last year. They'll probably finally find their game and start gelling when they're a hundred points out of a playoff spot and it's way too late. The painfully slow starts every single year (with 2014-15 as the lone exception) is really getting old, and I have zero confidence in this coaching staff to be able to fix it.
