Oiler fans can complain about the goalies all they want, but they can't help but have PTSD after their first 4 games.
2 on 1's 2 on 0's, unguarded tipins in front, cross crease passes, rebounds not being picked up. McDavid and Draisaitl slowly drifting back, then looking disgusted that their team mates can't bail out their pathetic play without the puck.
The Oilers are looking slow outside of McDavid and Draisaitl. Bouchard, now that he got his raise looks like an ahl defenseman when he's trying to defend. Ekholm looks injured, Nurse looks mentally checked out. Their bottom 8 forwards just coast around.
They look like an entitled team. "Wah Wah you should have given us the Stanley Cup right off of the bat".
They've played non playoff teams and with the exception of Nashville, the Oilers look prime for relegation to the AHL. No heart, no desire, nothing.
Its glorious.
17 goals against in 4 games, a wet dog with a note in its mouth would do better.
11 goals in 4 games, with 6 coming in 1 game, where's the vaunted offense?
oh and 5 of those 11 goals for came on the powerplay.
Oh and Conner Brown their big free agent signing that was supposed to put them over the top to awesome town. 4 games nothing but a -3. McDavid 6 points and 2 goals in 4 games and a -4, that makes him a liability. Evander Kane is playing like he bet against himself on Bet365.
Right now the sweat is pouring off of Eddie Munsters fore head in droves as this season has started disastrously.

They were trying part time with lots of dive-and-whine
Bench boss a Pee-wee dummy
He dropped an F bomb line, and was facing a fine
Cause they played a bit too leisurely
Seems that they were floating doing something close to nothing
Exactly as the game before
And they all look so sour, ooooh, so sour
With just one win in their first four, first four
They planned a Lord Stanley Parade
Planned and fanned by their media whore
Lord Stanley Parade
And when they fail once more, they’ll blow up the core
The Oiler Charade
Love that disass-ter

i think it would be funny if draisaitl went to chicago... just think of bugging oiler fans for years and years that draisaitl wanted to go play with the 'better connor!'
ha!
Ah...why wait?
Start bringing it up now. The cap works and it makes total sense. It should be the standard line anytime Draisatl's name is brought up.
So, Reid Wilkins says that opposing teams are DESPERATE to not get embarrassed by the Oilers who can out-talent anyone in the League. Because of this, they are playing the 2024 Champions-in-waiting like it's Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Final every single night. Poor Edmonton doesn't get a break against any teams.

And this exhibition by the Glitter Twins is exactly why they aren't on US National broadcasts very often. They can try to sell McDavid as the face of the league but he has zero personality and zero desire to become a well rounded player that they can market.
