No...but you could gif that slapshot he put right into the Detroit players shinpads while the Oil were 5 on 3 and ended up costing his team about 30 seconds in the offensive zone.

Thanks in advance.

This Winnipeg Ottawa game isn't terribly exciting.

Trade Eberle for a center or defense. Comrie 2.0.

can someone tell me how finishing last 3 years in a row, having no D, and questionable goaltending is doing doing a great job as a GM and rebuilding?

not to mention not being able to score 5 on 5

I think the oilers have done some things well in their rebuild - mostly drafting. Unfortunately for them (but fortunately for us) they haven't done much with the rest of the team though.

If they aren't competitive soon with the top end talent they have, that's a pretty large fail.

It's not but it's Oilers so it's ok. Just let them keep thinking they're on the right track.

This has becoming comical at this point. We're all so lucky to be witnessing the play of the greatest team ever assembled apparently.

Looks like these "high flying" oilers are in freefall

300 goals, easy.

Even in the shortened season.

Hilarious. That was the worst effort the Oilers showed this year and the broadcast is still gushing over them. Outside of a PP goal by the Olympian, the Oilers created nothing and Khabibulin bailed them out just to keep it that close.

They were in the top ten in 2010/2011, but dropped last season.
