Nobody seems to want to shoot the puck. Agree with Muppet. Mentally weak team. Definitely no leaders on this team.

Wait until we get Hamilton's brother and Rinaldo back in the lineup. That will be the spark we need to break the 2 goal mark.

Too bad the Mutts couldn't get the win on the roa-- what's that, you say? That was a HOME game?

McDavid is unbelievable. I can't wait for his FA year to watch him sign with the Golden Knights. He'll quietly get his American citizenship and then - no state taxes, baby and a ton of side money in Vegas.
I'll make the trip to Vegas to watch him play on weekends.

You forget, entertaining hockey is all about the passing. Shots on goal, let alone goals don't particularly matter.

I wonder what extra practice time against the players on the worst team in the league actually does for you. Not much from what I'm seeing.

Comic con is in town I think, it looked like some sort of new/old superhero outfit or something.
I'm not sure that they showed up, I think the Oilers took us lightly and didn't play hard at first. Once the Oilers decided to play harder, they controlled the play most of the game. We have seen this before in many games.
I'll say it again, Raanta let in 2 glove side upper goals, goes down too fast and has let in 2 other short side goals up high recently. This is an obvious problem teams are keying in on in my opinion.

That empty net save was a thing of beauty.

What's the single season record for blown leads? Especially 2+ goal leads? We are going to crush it.
Highlight of the season for him; I'm surprised he exerted the effort; perhaps, he's trying to get out of town as well?
I agree about Raanta. His upper glove side is very weak. I think all goalie's tend to go down early because of the style they play today. McDavid controlled the play most of the game, not the Oilers as such. We had all the momentum until Raanta let in that weak goal.
As much as I'd like Raanta to succeed here, I don't think it will work out in the long run. My guess is that we'll move him at the TDL for another "goalie-gamble." I realize he's been injured and such this season, but he does have some weaknesses before becoming a #1G. I suppose we could try for a tandem of some sort for a season or two if the team wants to stick with him (or our defense miraculously improves).
