But look at all of the top-end veteran talent they have there to guide those youngsters to the Promised Land!

Even coming from the mouths of their top players.
What an insufferable high horse culture.
Even the players in Toronto in the same situation would say its on them and they weren't good enough, maybe even give the goalie some props for putting up a .980%, rather than say "he's doing nothing special."
If there truly is luck and superstitions like Oiler folk claim then the hockey gods should serve up a Winnipeg sweep for that.
What a little bratty Deusche, like the media and fans.
Maybe next coach Tippett will claim the refs are hooking his guys, since apparently they have sticks now.

Ah yes. Conner can tell them to "let's go" as he gobbles up their ice time. Mike can stare them down and make them cry if they make a mistake. James can sulk and bore them with stories about when he used to be someone.

the beauty of this is this is the Oilers best chance. Barrie will be getting a big raise and apparently Nurse is now one of the best d men in the league who will need a raise and RNH is a free agent and he is an amazing 2 way center. Then if they dont resign old man Smith, they have Koskinen. Although they will get back a top dman in Klefbom, so they will be set there.

As certain as the laws that govern this earth. As constant as gravity. As reliable as the sun rising and setting. As dependable as the tides ebbing and flowing. The Edmonton Oilers are decidedly NO GOOD!!

Does mavI ask for a trade this summer, or hold off for one more year so he can make sure there is no chance of going to BUF?
While I'd love to see him out East, there would be something poetic about LAK.

Not sure that he wouldn't rather be in Buffalo. That would be the deepest team he's ever been on.

I hate the Oilers, but Nurse has improved quite a bit. He's getting paid for sure.

At some point he’ll realize the lesson is to go somewhere else.
Imagine if Carolina won the lottery in 2015 and Brindamour developed McDavid instead of the jock sniffers up North who basically have asked McDingle to develop their franchise.
