Can’t score, special teams blow, yet the team is “too good” to tank

Go pick top 10 please

Brutal start to 2025, dropping two winnable games.

Overall this team has been more entertaining than I expected... but I'd rather see us make some trades and bottom out the rest of the way.

Finishing 8th-11th in the West would be pointless.

That’s a good loss.

Only 4 points away from the bottom-10.

Send Andersson to Colorado, Dallas, or Winnipeg and lock that bottom-10 finish in.

Kuzmenko's gotta go. Via trade or waive. It's just not working at all.

Ok we know they don’t practice 5 on 3.

How about the power play? We are getting killed on special teams.

Ron and the panel coming up you say? Ron has changed his underwear by now and has his cute little oilers play on words prepared. Mute, mute, mute, until Lomberg is on. Ro

Power play was better than PK. That’s unusual.

You know who was responsible for putting us on unnecessary PKs. I can’t bear to watch that cap dump. At least he’s wearing that horrible uniform and not the flaming C.

To be expected.

Without Wolf and the two young guys this team is unwatchable. No point to push for the playoff with this roster. Save us some time.

Classic road win by the Preds. hang on at the beginning, rely on goaltending, get some timely goals on special teams, hang on for a win.

Negative... Further away from the playoffs.
Positive... Closer to a top 10 pick.


Frustrating game to watch, but also a fun loss. Might as well take the positives out of it. Onto the next.


Oh.. and hat's off to Coronato sticking up for the captain that way! Good on em!

Missed Lomberg dapping up Coronato. That’s leadership.

I honestly don’t know what Connie can do to sort this out.

Scoring woes continue. It’s not sustainable to win games when you lack skill up front. I’m actually surprised they’ve done as well as they have to be honest. Let’s just hope they don’t continue with middle of the pack results. Finishing with a top 10 pick is probably the most realistic hope as the path of mediocrity will delay the rebuild.
