Ferland is better than Hamilton.Dougie with the big -4 tonight. I wonder if anyone still believes he's the best player in that deal.

They're still giving up way more chances and high danger chances than they're getting.
Their chance differentials under Hitchcock are the same, if not worse than they were under McLellan.
Literally the only difference is they're getting elite level goaltending since Hitchcock took over (3rd in the NHL)
Well this is going to get worse before it gets better lol. Literally a fan running a team except that fan doesn’t know anything about hockey
Hitchcock took the Stars, superior in every category, to a 6th place finish in the Central. The Oilers may be tightening up defensively but their style of play is antiquated and doesn't set them up for long-term success.
We also had stretches under Gulutzan where everything looked like it was clicking and we were finally going to stop underachieving. But then it would all fell apart, "inexplicably", and we would be plodding along, playing .500 hockey expecting the dam to burst again. If the Oilers are still routinely winning games when the 40-60 slog hits, then they deserve a lot of credit
Absolutely. He's been phenomenal.You gotta hand it to Koskinen though. He's doing what Talbot did for them two years ago. Carrying a bad team. With all-world goaltending like that, and San Jose severely underperforming, they're setting themselves up well.
Absolutely. He's been phenomenal.
At the end of the day, they're merely keeping pace with the Golden Knights and Ducks though. While they have games in hand on those two teams, are they as likely to keep up this torrid pace as the Ducks and Golden Knights are? The smart money right now says no
