Go gas up the truck? Better go to a self-serve, or the pump jockey will want to know how that first goal snuck through your glove hand last night against Florida.
Their seats are so hot they eat dinner standing up, the tension so high that even the family dog has asked for separate vacations. We don’t see Tippett getting fired any time soon no matter what happens Saturday night when the Calgary Flames come to town, agame that folks will watch from coast to coast like rubberneckers on the Don Valley Parkway. Nobody can avert their eyes from a good wreck -- and that perfectly describes these Edmonton Oilers -- but that doesn’t mean Holland is going to fire a head coach in the middle of the season for the first time as a National Hockey League general manager.
It’s hard even to watch poor Koskinen take the nets these days, as the oddsmakers make lines on who has less confidence in the six-foot-seven Finn. His teammates, or himself. “Getting a win in your division is a good way to start, grab two points here and start moving in the right direction.”
Spec Are the EdmontonOilers honestly staring Koskinen. Fuck
Spec Not a peep about the fact that Dustin Schwartz shoulda been shit canned years ago . He should be at the top of the list , he'd rather let his players take it on the chin though ..
Spec Resting for over a week and played against one of the worst team, senators, and lost miserably. That was the pivotal turning point in the mind of many. Now another pivotal point again. What happens nothing changes again? What can really trigger a change then?
Spec We have sports reporters talking about what oilers should do. All they can do is blame the goalies which they be doing for the last 20 years. That's there answer all we blame the goalie. Everyone knows oilers have the worst defensemen in the NHL. You can't win with BAD DEFENSE.
Spec Bob Nicholson is actually to blame, yes, Holland is to blame also. Daryl Katz needs to pull a Canucks, fire everyone and bring someone in with proven salary cap experience with success.
Spec Spec, I believe Nicholson is the biggest problem. You can’t just get away with hiring your buddies.
Spec Go Flames!
Spec No mention the two biggest issues:Nicholson and our D core. We downgraded our D this summer and spent more on it…and its going to be even pricier next year
Spec Mystery why Dustin Schwartz is never mentioned by the media. Does Nicholson & Lowe have that much control over them to protect their golden boy?
Spec And once again - the Goalie Coach is flying under the radar . . .
Spec how about playing empty net and bringing in an extra attacker for the whole game?
Spec Really? How is their “generational” offensive talent not at fault?
Spec Yet another first overall pick should fix things...
Spec Koskinen is not under any pressure, he is a backup goalie with the contract of a starter, holland should have signed markstrom, all of this is on him
Spec Koskinen is a minor league goalie at best. This team sucks.
Spec You forgot one Oilers
Spec I smell Mike Babcock in the air unless Connor wants out of town.
Spec What
