Flames who are embracing a rebuild, trading away veterans and are barely above the cap floor: 18GP 21 points.

"Here come the Oilers" who are against the cap with every ounce of their being invested into winning this season: 19GP 20 points.

Lane Hutson, for one, doesn’t have a goal yet. Neither does Aaron Ekblad.

Sue me for saying it, but McDavid might be a little overrated these days.

There's a very long list of more exciting players this year than bumonton's top players. Even "Team Canada" Hyman and "HHOF" Nuge have fallen off of a cliff.

Just a boring group that shot its load last spring and came up short.

Meanwhile MacKinnon is tracking to out-perform McDigIn's career year and Ovie is going on pace to crush the record.

Luck is still their greatest strength by a mile, as it has been the last few years. That horseshoe up there finally rusted through?

I get so sick and tired of hearing about the best player, and how the 2nd best player stepped up. Give it a rest.
Most visible pouter is not a trophy, yet.

Some here thought Jeff Skinner was a good addition. At 3 million lol. He's been terrible like he was in Buffalo last year. Arvidsson has been a surprise though, thought he had more left in the tank.

TBF, that was a great move around Caulfield and Hyman totally blew an easy goal. Hyman really sucks this year. Good to see.

Gosh what a guy! 3 crossovers and an IGA logo board slash.

Stupid teammate! He’ll do it himself next time. And expect to hear about digging in!

Well then Hyman needs to "dig the f*** in!"

Hyman is who he is. McDavid would have been better off trying to bank one off Hyman or get it on the net so Hyman can dig for the rebound.

Oilers are the oldest team in the league and are showing it. Keeping their older players and losing some key younger guys who helped on the PK is hurting. Foegle, McLeod, Broberg, Holloway are all missed.

Best comparison is that Crosby clip where Malkin (I think) misses a wide open net and Crosby gets the team calmed down, tells them Malkin knows he missed, and then tells them to go get another one. Night and day.

Crosby took a ton of criticism for his leadership early and he became what he is. McDavid is never criticized and this is what you get.

Future hall of famer RNH just continues to look elite. The bar was set pretty low when Lowe was inducted, so i can see why Oiler fans would think he should get in as they arent very bright in the first place

Getting shutout. They've excelled at that.
