    This is exactly what needed to happen in my honest opinion, the other forwards that they brought in along with the other top guns need to start producing cause the defensemen are outscoring them atm. They are slower, softer, and no clicking anywhere on the ice. Brutal turnovers, bouchard and nurse doing bouchard and nurse things. Skinner stuggling with all this going on is very problematic in the start of the season. I dont see them making the playoffs this year considering how fast they were last year compared to now. I mean edmonton was known for their SPEED, losing all their young speedy players was their greatest mistake. This aint the same team as last year.

      @@CaidenYoung-eo8xo This Oiler team may very well end up not being the same as last season, and sure hasn’t been looking that way on a consistent basis, with six losses this regular season, one of them in OT, during the first 10 games.

      @wainber1 management has been bending this team over ever since Holland made that nurse signing and I've been following them for years, it'll be a miracle if they actually hit a wild card this year.

      @ I haven’t yet found an authoritative list of teams that made an appearance in a Stanley Cup final one season, but missed the postseason in the season after that. That said, I count only two Stanley Cup finalists that the following season, if that season occurred during the modern salary cap era (2005-06 to present), to have the season after such an appearance, failed to see playoff action:
      - 2006-07 Canes, fresh off a Stanley Cup championship the season before that
      - 2021-22 Habs after having appeared in a Stanley Cup final the previous season, but having not won the Cup itself
      The Oilers, with 9 points (4-5-1-0 win-regulation loss-OT loss-shootout loss record) over 10 regular-season games, arguably have more points than at the same point 3 regular seasons ago the Habs did (just 4 via a 2-8-0-0 record). Those Habs, over their first 10 regular-season games, played:
      - 8 during which they had scored under 3 goals (0-8-0-0) when compared to 6 such games this season the Oilers have played (0-5-1-0 record)
      - 7 and 6 respective games during which they had allowed at least three and four goals (leading to 0-7-0-0 and 0-6-0-0 relevant records) while the Oilers have so far this season played 7 and 5 relevant games (1-5-1-0 and 0-5-0-0 relevant records)
      While the Canucks, Flames and Jets have found ways to earn points in more of those games they played than not, the:
      - Flames have started to fade
      - Leafs, even with their not-great 5-4-1-0 record, have found ways to earn points in at least some games during which they’ve given up at least three goals and so far have only played five games during which they’ve given up at least three goals
      - Sens have played 7 of 9 games during which they’ve allowed at least three goals, but have found ways to win quite a few of them
      - Habs have a similar record to the Oilers, but at least aren’t expected to see playoff action this season
      Is it time for the Oilers to panic just yet? I don’t believe it is but there are signs of not enough players putting up points, with just Evan Bouchard, Matt Ekholm, Connor McDavid, and Leon Draisaitl having averaged at least 0.5 points per game. Among multi- goal scorers I count Draisaitl, McDavid, Bouchard, Ekholm, Jeff Skinner and Brett Kulak. Zach Hyman, Matt Janmark, Viktor Arvidsson, Derek Ryan and Vasily Podkolzin, among forwards, have yet to score despite having already played in at least five games each. this coming off-season, one or more of those forwards may be gone. Podz at least is signed a rather inexpensive contract and, because he is ineligible for unrestricted free agency simply based on age or number of non-preseason NHL games played, surely knows he needs to give a lot more if he is going to get a qualifying offer from the Oilers in June 2026. Yes, it’s pretty routine for players signed to entry-level contracts, provided the ends of such contracts take them to restricted free agency, but don’t give them the opportunity to exercise arbitration rights, but Podz is on his second NHL contract, so pretty much anything goes for him as to whether he will get a qualifying offer from whatever NHL team for which by June 2026 he is playing.

      I agree with all of that, except I do think they are good enough to make the playoffs. But they are not a serious contender. Management failed them significantly this off-season.

    This may be exactly what the Oilers need. Instead of relying on McDavid they are going to have to step up. Once this team figures themselves out then add McDavid.

      It doesn’t matter that the game against the Blue Jackets started under 24 hours after the Oilers had beaten the Red Wings in OT. Nationwide Arena in Columbus is about as far away by driving distance from Detroit’s Little Caesars Arena as:
      - Belfast, Northern Ireland, and Waterford, Republic of Ireland
      - London Saint Pancras train station is from Manchester United’s home stadium of Old Trafford
      - the town hall of Hawkesbury, Ontario is from the Belleville train station in the same province
      Playing games on consecutive calendar days Mountain Time is a reality across the NHL and NBA, at least during preseason and regular-season play. So far this regular season, the Oilers have a rather putrid 1-2-1-0 win-regulation loss-OT loss-shootout loss record in such pairings of games, with, among such pairings of games that remain, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2 and 1 respective sets of games in November, December, January, February, and April, resulting in 12, 24 and 48 respective sets of games, games, and potential points the Oilers can earn. That’s 1/3 of the games the Oilers still have to play before the 2025 postseason although they may very well find out by the week of 6 April Mountain Daylight Time whether they have clinched a playoff spot or been eliminated from qualifying for one. The Oilers will have to learn to play as a team without McDavid in the lineup although whether enough of his teammates will step up to do so, to stay in the hunt for a playoff spot, if not actually get into one, still remains TBD.
