the most this or the most that is always misleading in the playoffs...the Oilers have played two teams and neither was great.

Talbot, Rittich, and Silovs are the 3 goalies they have faced

I thought he was passing up shots so he could chase that historic 100 assist season.

Are all oiler fans excuse detectives like this?

Not like he really ripped his shots. How many deke/tap-in deposits over the years? Most of his goals are that. If you can pass well enough for 100 apples you can score the way he traditionally scored.

And if there's a real injury that has hampered shooting all year then why the #### are they playing this guy 30 minutes. What a careless team. They deserve whatever shortcomings come of that.

lol, not an excuse detective,and certainly a guy like him doesn’t need an excuse from me. It has been talked about since October, he sure as heck didn’t get 64 goals by tap ins last year, I think you and I both know that. His shot last year was pretty elite.

21 minutes a night in case you wanted real numbers, as for why he kept playing if he is injured? One can only surmise because it wasn’t going to get worse.

Again though this is all speculation but it’s been discussed for a while. Maybe he just stopped shooting as much, I don’t know. Sure aren’t going to hear until the seasons over and maybe it turns out the suspicions were all wrong. Won’t be the first time, nor the last.

any time he doesn't score 5 points a game they say his is injured

he isn't the scoring leader and shouldn't win the MVP...his fanboys in the media are trying to cope

Whether McPissy is hurt or not it’s time for Dallas to put his ass on the golf course

Exactly this. Literally anytime he goes on a cold streak the media starts saying he is injured. Not speculating, they are sure he is injured.

Considering the Oilers luck so far in the playoffs I'm expecting some kind of injury to Oettinger in the first period tonight

Read a bunch of comments from Oiler fans this morning proclaiming that their team was just as deep as Dallas, and that even if Skinner just plays average, the series will probably go 7.

Dallas has been off for a little longer, they lost the first game in both series they've played, I see the oilers winning their last game of the year tonight.

Meh, they lost both game 1's by 1 goal, one game in OT. They'll be fine.

Hintz out and Oettinger on the mend from an illness of some sort.

I still think Dallas takes Game 1 regardless.

Weakest of the 4 by a country mile.

Teams that are golfing are better than the oilers (CAR, COL, VGK, BOS)

Enjoy the trainwreck!

I assume Hintz may be concussed. Not great but it seems like the Oilers are getting way too many breaks with their opposition missing key players. Stars still have enough talent to take care of business though.

You must be getting your stats from Monster Truck announcer Jack. He cannot count along with the rest of their media personalities or, their fanbase for that matter.
