i think it was understated on how horrible the team was when it started this rebuild. They absolutely burnt everything to the ground and essentially became a bad expansion team. I do tend to agree that with the current management nothing will change because to build a successful team you need to be able to recognize talent outside the top ten in the draft. I do have a worry that they will collect another first overall and then clue in and get rid of Lowe.

I also think it is a bit a karmic justice with them intentionally sucking to get picks when they did. Being bad is one thing, but being bad at the right time can really help a team.

They should be able to beat the Panthers. If they don't then they need to start trading asap.

Panthers are probably saying that we should be able to beat the Oilers.

Just reading that both the Oilers and Panthers have 10 first round picks dressed tonight and 2 out of the line up. That's 20-24 first round picks and they are 2 of the worst teams in the league.

Florida can't string together two consecutive passes and they still look better than the Oilers.

Yakupov and Gagner are -1 already. More stellar defensive play by the Oilers, 1-0 Panthers.

Have the Oilers faced the easiest competition in the league so far?

I'm almost feeling sorry for the Oilers fans. Not there quite yet but almost.

This game has got to be the lowest attendance of the year. So many empty seats.

Remarkable, with the speed that the Oilers are supposed to possess, how many loose puck battles and races they lose.
Scared and/ or soft? It is not tactics or strategy.
