No. The ranking in the link is based on quality of competition.

That second Buffalo goal had the Oilers top line trying to be too fancy in their rush, which was followed by Buffalo coming back and jamming the puck into the net.

Awe. Mcwhiner got a penalty called against him. That’s a shame.

Was that not a penalty on Nurse? Or are takedowns allowed?

Buffalo's powerplay is still awful.

I just hope Ralph Krueger can stick it to the team who fired him over Skype.

What a change, though, from being worried about every shot Smith faces to being amusingly hopeful.

On the replay just now, it was actually a pretty good play by Nurse. Just pushed him down, with body position.

I don't know why they're surprised the Oilers don't have a shorthanded goal; it's pretty obvious, McDavid doesn't kill penalties.

They stand completely still, I can’t believe in the NHL there are coaches who watch these units play and don’t implement more motion

I doubt very much that Buffalo's coaching staff is instructing the players to remain stationary.

OK. Randorf and Remenda were giggling about Kassian running into Olmark and I had to turn away. I missed the replay.

At the Oilers game right now, so far so good lol. Oil are absolutely terrible when McDavid isn't on the ice. That being said I can't believe how much of a floater McDavid is, just hovers around the blue line waiting for Kassian or Draisaitl to help the D out and feed him. Also sitting next to an oiler fan who calls all the players by a first name nickname, Conny, Zachy, Mikey...he talks to them alot...

Anyways the beer is good and it is actually pretty cool being in a new arena (last game was in the dome 16 years ago)

Go Buffalo!

With the over the top homerism of the people who cover the Oilers it's no wonder their fans are so delusional.

I’ve watched a good portion of this game. Is Neal even in the lineup?

He is playing on a line with The Tenderness and Jujar Khaira.

That'll go well.
