Ok. So the minutes aren't an issue. Glad we are in agreement.
Lol they are an issue if the team wants to make progress in the postseason before the lottery twins are gone.
So amusing that oiler fans don't see nor acknowledge the burnout that was on display in the POs.
Keep burying your heads in the sand and defending the TOI. The elite talent will be gone from Edmonton in no time.
The oilers are totally going to squander a whole decade of these guys because of arrogance and overconfidence in strategies that aren't getting results.
Stay the course. We love it.

For all he’s accomplished in the NHL thus far, Connor McDavid feels winning the Stanley Cup with the Edmonton Oilers is key to cementing his legacy among the great hockey players in history.
No sh*t, McSherlock

Edmonton is again considered a Stanley Cup contender this season, but McDavid believes it takes more than just one great player to win.
Oilers A team beat the Canucks’ B team tonight on an OT goal by you know who. I’ll bet they double-shifted the wonder twins. Gotta get that preseason champs banner.
So many stupid Oilers fans insisting that Joshua "leapt into the boards" there.

Those same idiot fans are probably praising Pissy's slash to the back of a Canucks legs. I really hope someone feeds Draisaitl his teeth the next time he lays the lumber on someone. I have no doubt that his cheap shots played a huge part in what Pietrangelo did to him in the playoffs. It's not like players don't talk. I'm sure players know that Pissy is a cheapshot artist. How many times have the cameras caught him spearing players in the family jewels?

The Oilers played their top 9 forwards last night, along with Bouchard and Nurse, with Skinner in net. And managed to scrape together a 3v3 OT win against the Abbotsford Canucks.
It's Cup or Bust for Edmonton this year. For no reason other than they lost to the Cup winners in the playoffs two years in a row. The pressure on the team is going to be ridiculous and it will all add up to them crumbling against it and missing the playoffs.
It is hilarious how quickly McDavid wanted out of there after shoving Petreangelo.
I figured that series was over with that and also how long (and how timid) the Oilers took to get over there. Watching Draisaitl blowing a hissy fit (fair) but then skating AWAY from them was the icing on the cake.

It reminds me of when the skilled Lightening would get bullied by the aging but experienced Red Wings. Tampa had no business losing against Detroit but Detroit too control over the guts of the game.
Spittin Chiclets doing Pacific div review and were talking oilers.
Hilarious exchange about Nurse. Goes like this: If Broberg develops like how people feel, then that would allow Nurse to play appropriate minutes of 12-15min per game. Then they debate if he should be 12-15min guy or 15-20min guy. The guy is paid like a 25-30 min player. I love how non-Oiler folks see him as borderline top 4 now.
