How well does a good defenseman play when forced onto their opposite side? What about a terrible defenseman?

Knob moving Nurse to RD, because....
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Nurse at anything other than CD looking at the net with the puck in it behind his goalie.

Maybe, but some people show their character by no longer cheering for a team when the ownership and management of the team makes morally questionable decisions

He said he would be done with the Oilers and the NHL if Stan "look the other way" Bowman was hired

He hasn't posted since the hire

Mavi on the OT winner tonight is exactly why they’ll never win anything but All Star skills competitions summed up in two milliseconds.

Funny how things happen in milliseconds that explain how some athletes never win anything

The OT goal against is so Mavi.

Looking for his hat trick so he blows the defensive zone…he is literally moving the opposite direction of the puck and play. He knows it’s Bouchard getting caught at the point and that it’s pissy as the lone defender. Does he pick up the opponent?

So not thinking about the defence. That’s consistent. Selfish play. Also consistent. Keeping the puck out of the net as a first priority? Negative.

And haha it’s pissy that got hung out to dry.

Could the great digger not have just defended for 6.1 seconds more? Not on your conn smythe trophy, baby.

That's only cause the oilers have stunk out of the gate.

It's been crickets from the insane clown posse, as one would expect.

Don't think he actually traded in his fan card.

But his gripes with the Flames/Dube don't hold a candle to what the Oilers have done lately. So I guess there's no point in coming here to argue moral high ground from the gates of hell.

The Oilers are in 29th. The only two teams they've beat are in 30th (Philly) and 31st (Nashville)

He did learn under the tutelage of one of the greats. Papa would be proud.

Yup. And you're right. Once again, McAvi absolutely hung them out to dry.

No coverage. Blows the zone. And just absolutely abandons his teammates. Brutal, brutal stuff.

Looks like Coilers fans are finally realizing why everyone else calls their 'generational talent' McAvi...

The Oilers are not a fast team, and they really slow down in the second half of games. I wonder if besides the team being as old as Bob Barker if there's a conditioning issue.
