I dare them to go a game without exaggerating something. Probably impossible.

12-4! and lots of improving to do still.
Refs tried to keep the oilers down? I hope this is a joke account.

Part of playing a great defensive game is taking a 4 minute penalty in a tie game with a minute to go.

McDavid had a 2.54 xGA/60 in this game 5v5 (probably as the Oilers' best defensive player)

Sean Monahan had a 1.95 xGA/60 last season... on a broken hip... playing half the season for Geoff Ward


Some serious limbo dancing being performed up north... how low can the bar go

You do realize there’s no shootouts in the playoffs right? What an awful take.

Common now. Oilers are #3 in ES goals for in the NHL behind Washington and Florida.

Now don't ask me about ES goals against....Differntial is like break even. Won't go far without a better goalie and more importantly, D zone coverage. This "keep them to the outside collapsing" thing they do brings on too many shots. Hate it.

He isn’t great.

He’s elite.

Like top 5 worst in the league.

You realize they do that because the Oilers rely heavily on rush scoring, right?

If the Oilers played a possession game, their magical scoring would dry up the way it did in McLellan's final year, the last time they tried to play a possession game.

It's all about the individual points up north.

You can tell it's not really a team. It's a bunch of buggers and two nitwits.

God bless you TSN. McDavid willed them to a win tonight. Yes he sure did. I won't take away from that nice goal to tie it, that was something but holy christ you wonder why no one cares about McWhiney. The boner Jermaine Franklin had for him tonight post game was disgusting.

Vegas is right in the thick of it despite all their injuries.

And now they have Eichel waiting in the fold.

Seth Jarvis scores the go ahead goal midway through the third period, 2-1 Carolina.

The Knights are cruising to a victory, 5-1 right now.
