Actually, that's what "digging in" looks like.

Not sure if “stud defencemen” Emberson and the $9.5 million dollar man Nurse can dig in anymore, think they hit bedrock last night.

Conner Brown is more most impactful player? I am starting to think that with all the press releases pumping their tires, someone forget to tell them they still have to play their games.

Then they go to intermission, and there is zero mention of the Oiler game at all and I thought it must be really bad, like a blowout like game 1 last year. Then about halfway through the 2nd, Stackhouse casually mentions that the Jets are up 5-0, and I laughed. Yup, so predictable - Sportsnet could not bring themselves to even talk about the Oilers being down. Had it been 5-0 Oilers, we would have been subjected to highlights between every whistle.
Some people think that the Sportsnet bias is just our imagination. It is not. Once you see it, and watch for it, it is INCREDIBLY rampant, among every single member of the Sportsnet crew. As I said, I knew the Oilers were getting blown out, simply by the silence, and the muted tones of the panel as they were (remorsefully) discussing the VAN-CGY game.
Please, please Hockey Gods... Please give us a TV contract from someone other than Rogers, for Flames games.
Also... Haha, stupid Oilers!

And of all viewers, who besides flames and Canucks fans would be more interested in a score line like that?

This is only pre season for the Oilers. Regular seasons starts after they fire the coach.

Maybe was mentioned but Broberg played 20 minutes for the Blues with a goal and a win. But not a big loss according to Oiler fans

They could have at least said Western Conference Champions. Same difference, but at least it sounds like something to be proud of.

The fun part of the oilers inconsistent goaltending is they don’t have the draft capital or cap space to improve it.
