Draisaitl I can understand - he's a forward that doesn't think he has to play defense. But Bouchard could have pressured Miller but simply chose not to and turned away.

Astounding.
I have said before, Bouchard gives absolutely zero ####s…. You could see it last season in a contract year and they thought it would get better??????

I only wish they would have signed him for 8 yrs.

I wonder if it was the player and agent that only wanted 4 years because of the increasing cap? If so they may regret as IMO he's a product of that powerplay and playing with two of the best forwards in the world. When McDavid leaves in three years he's going to be exposed big time.

They are all frauds that threesome.
McDavid actually looks like he pulls up not to get in Miller's way.

Of course he did; Miller had right of way, after all.

With Nurse recently benched and now Boo-Boo's misadventures maybe Oilers defence is really a problem?

Didn't they have an article about how their defense is among the best in the league? That couldn't be wrong could it?!

With our season lost, I will be closely following the Oilers failures all year. Them missing after McLottery took an insane discount to "build a strong team" will be absolute cinema.

Let them be the organization known for trading Gretzky & McDavid lol

I really want to think that was Tulsky trolling. Which blossomed beautifully for us all.

Carolina is a well run decent team, seems odd that they would have wanted to sign him to an offer sheet like that. he really is the gift that keeps on giving.

Well run, decent team that has made some straight up bizarre and frankly terrible moves over the years. This would have been one of those. They have drafted a lot and drafted well combined with 1st class coaching make them a consistently good team despite all that.

Mangiapane had 3 points in his first three games with the Oilers. He has 1 point in his last 10.

Andersson is awesome. I hope we keep him, and his game turns around as we start adding better players.
