Oilers lack:

 

- discipline, their players are way too reactive

- puck moving defenseman

- strong goaltending

- supporting coaching staff 

- over dependence on their forward core

 

These glaring issues MUST be fixed if Oilers want to even make the playoffs let alone go far as everyone predicted.

 

You can't have players like Bouchard or Nurse imploding and taking dumb penalties this has to be corrected.

got to many prima-donnas on there team and no defence and goalies

Standouts so far: 

 

Quinn is taking over the game in the last 10 minutes. 

Tyler Myers has been great so far too, maybe even our most effective defender in the 1st. 

 

Garland - Suter - Joshua have been the most effective line, despite Joshua's penalty. 

 

JT Miller won some big faceoffs on the PK too. 

 

Not impressed with Beauvillier and Friedman in the 1st, they look overmatched.

Oilers only one shot over the final 9-10 mins apparently. After the Canucks scored it was a different game.

 

Canucks were chipping the puck in alot early, Oilers big Dmen were just protecting it easily & they broke out easily.

 

Canucks started holding onto pucks upon entering the zone (Ex. Kuz on the first goal) and started creating the way we've seen them create.

 

Gotta keep holding onto pucks & let the Oilers self-implode.

Is everyone calmed down now ??

 

A few people were close to having panic attacks about 15 mins ago? Lol

You mean when people observed they were playing poorly?  Why is that bad to say?  They were

Guys like Garland and Beauvillier are a bit if a waste of cap in the bottom 6 but also what a luxury.  They aren’t putting the numbers this year but they’re obvious NHL talents - and they do the little things (haha) right.

Exactly. Beau can spot himself on the top line and not look out of place either

Oh they are still playing like dogshit.

 

But they finally made a pass at the 15 minute mark so things are trending up. That was the furthest thing from a Canuck hockey period I hope Tocchet rips em in the intermission.

Game suspension. Intentional cross check to the face. He knew it right away and was trying to justify it to his other 3 wingers in stripes.

I'm not sure why he bitched about that, he's lucky he didn't get more.

They are grinders without the physicality. They are hard on the forecheck and wear the defense down on the boards. 

 

Yeah, Garland is constantly winning puck battles and setting up teammates. 

 

He's been solid this year despite the lack of points.
