The Oilers have a different philosophy than the other teams, according to MacTavish. The best way to develop talent is through failure. By the end of the season, look for Koskinen to become the league's best goalie.
Considering how much 'development' has been going on in Edmonton over the last 14 years, - I mean, no other team in North American sports has developed this much after all - I think that all their fans and media are right to be so excited about. This must be the year!
