Scoring Winger

Makes one wonder how much Leon relies on Connor for his points. If Connor is not running at full speed he’s been invisible. The second best player in the world should probably have some impact.

Hamblin scored his 1st NHL goal tonight, and was a +2. How did the Oilers reward his play? With 7:02 of ice-time. McDavid with 0G 0A and -2 played 23:00 minutes. Draisatl 0G 0A and -2 with 23:15.

McDavid has the worst faceoff percentage of any Oilers Centre this season. Today, he only won 23.1% of his faceoffs.
Rather than sitting him to heal up, they're going to ride him until he has a full breakdown and then they'll lose him long term.

I remember after his first year Crosby said he worked on his face offs all off-season and became one of the top guys. Still don’t understand how Mcdavid can even be compared to Sid.

Didn't watch the post-game. Are the dips*** talking heads at SN/HNIC still saying this, lol? Good grief, what a bunch of pathetic clowns. The evidence that the Oilers are a garbage team has been right in front of them this whole time, and yet they're still doubling down on this nonsense. Pretty clear at this point that none of them actually believes the crap they're spewing, but if they don't, they probably lose their jobs.

amuses me that Oilers fans think teams are lining up to give them a great goalie in return for the 2 way wizard that is RNH. Especially Boston, the tenderness is not a Bruin type player

With the pre-season Stanley Cup favourite Edmonton Oilers struggling to develop momentum, Premier Danielle Smith blamed the team’s performance on the Liberal government’s carbon tax.
“Alberta’s capital has been suffering greatly under the Federal government’s hostile attitude to the oil industry, and one need look no further than our beloved hockey team,” the Premier to a raucous crowd of supporters. “We told you how Ottawa’s regulations will be a burden on Canadians’ wallets, and now Leon Draisaitl can’t even buy a goal!”
“Before the devastating carbon tax, the Oilers won five Stanley Cups”, Smith pointed out, “but since Trudeau introduced the carbon tax, they haven’t even made it to the finals. The numbers don’t lie”.

Connor really looks like a shadow of himself. He looks slower, and honestly not all that interested. His defensive work is still shoddy, but he's literally hurting the Oilers right now.
If he's healthy this is troubling, the Oilers are on the way to an early playoff elimination.
Florida is probably going to harmlem globe trotter the Oilers on Monday.
If 95 points is the playoff barrier, the Oilers will need 84 points in the final 66 games. or a 44 and 22 record. Which is a .666 winning percentage. Which means the only way in is to sell Katz's kids soul to the devil.
Last year there were 7 teams that played at a .666 pace or better. and the Oilers weren't one of them.
