Draisatl with 2 goals and a -2. McDavid with 2 assists and -3. It's definitely the fault of the role players though.

The Stanley-Cup-favourite Edmonton Oilers have played 36 games. They have 14 regulation wins, and 12 regulation losses.

The rebuilding Flames have played 35 games and have 12 regulation wins and 11 regulation losses.

It's not fair that the league required them to play back-to-back games with the massive travel from Los Angeles to Anaheim.

Nice to see those clowns get dummied in their 2 games back from the break. They've been artificially propped up by OT wins and a favourable schedule. If the breaks ever even up for those fools the losses will pile up.

Can't wait to hear about the unfathomable adversity the Oilers faced having to do that grueling back to back. A feat no other team has faced*

Most other teams do it all the time but the Oilers are gifted a tired opponent every time they have to do it.

Brawls at WEM on Boxing Day? I know we joke about it, but Edmonton really is stuck in the 80s.

I mean, if it was Sbarro's for the last slice I could maybe understand that, but Spacesavers?

No one ever accused Edmonton of having class.

LOL, the mall hosted a wrestling promotion entitled "WEST EDMONTON BRAWL" last August.



Curiously, the link to it on the mall's website has been removed, lol.

Guess they couldn’t agree on getting an extra pair of glasses or prescription sunglasses.

It’s obviously a planned thing though. No one goes shopping with 100 buddies “just in case”.

Remember when the Oilers decided to sign Skinner and low-ball Holloway leading to the offer sheet for Holloway?

Holloway has 24 points in 37 games, a 53 point pace. How's Skinner doing?

https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article...g-time-coming/

Quote:
You could feel it coming — almost hear it — like a train in the distance, the decision to healthy scratch one of Jeff Jackson’s big free agent signings this past summer. As inevitable as Christmas or New Year's Day, Jeff Skinner’s seat in the Anaheim press box on Sunday had been waiting for him for weeks now.
Quote:
And here’s what is truly damning: If either one of the top centres in Edmonton — McDavid or Draisaitl — really wanted Skinner on their flank, it would happen eventually, if not immediately.

But they don’t, and he isn’t. And as this $3 million pick-up fails in Edmonton — while collecting his buy-out after failing in Buffalo
