Gene Principe's opening punologue was far and away the highlight of tonight's game if you're an Oilers fan.

Five or six more power plays and the Oilers could get back into this.

Usually the 4 defenders collapse on the net, 4 oilers were within 8' of that net. If Jersey got the puck it would have been a 3-1 the other way.

They could... I don't think they will. Devils are a veteran team and have an all star goalie. They hopefully will shut this down!

I love the fact that Kevin Lowe is still there after all the mess he helped he create, it's unbelievable, really.
Their drafting has been bad, but the development has been worse. They don't teach their young players how to play, and don't insulate them and put them in positions to succeed.

They throw them on the ice (sometimes injured) and expect their skill to overwhelm teams.

Look at Tom Gilbert. They paid him $4 million/year and let him be lazy and soft defensively...he had to take a PTO this summer because no NHL team wanted him.

Let young players do whatever they want...this is the result. That's why no matter how much individual talent there is on that team they'll never contend.
