Engelland not good at clearing the zone.

About $10M poorer. It's nuts when you think about it.

Smart coaching by Hartley.

Wow, #2 for the Oilers just stops in the middle of the ice hoping for a line change but notices he cant and A Flame just blows right by into the zone. These Oilers truly, certainly do suck.

Engelland not good at hockey.

If he was an Oiler he would be a top pairing D-man. Put that in perspective.

He'd be an easy 3-4 for the Oilers though.

Schultz is the ideal personification of the complex that Lowe has.
He went there (and is still there) because Lowe rolled out the big guns, and flexed his 80's muscle, and got Coffey and Gretzky to call on his behalf. The acqusition of Schultz is likely very high on Lowe's own list of accomplishments, and probably brings it up all the time.

That's just cruel.

A 2-1 for the Oilers and FOUR Flames beat the lead rushers back to the D zone. This is ridiculous.

They have Schultz who is basically just an offensive guy and still have Brad Hunt up there fiddling around on the PP because Schultz can't shoot.

Excellent point.

It's crazy how irrelevant Nail Yakupov is.

[GioforPM]

Announcers keep mentioning Oilers out shooting Flames. Could it be because they are desperate and shooting from everywhere?

Oilers have controlled the puck most of the second. They're not rewriting a narrative here

Hope the flames can bury them in the 3rd. Can't let up.
