Oilers fan coming in peace (I know those words are overused). But I'm being completely honest, as an Oilers fan, you guys should not be ripping into your team. Okay, maybe we won tonight, but it's pretty obvious the Jets are by far the better team. Especially after a great season last year, it's too early to be so down on your team, I still see the Jets as a legitimate cup contender. Just my 2 cents which nobody asked for.

I thought Ehlers had some good moments tonight, was able to get something going with Little. Too bad there were bad things too. Actually, worse than bad. But as usual, he wasn't the only one. Too many tire fires.

Ehlers is trying to do what players who struggle with their offense do... try and make it up on defense. IMO Ehlers played OK for the most part defensively and did make a couple of really good plays in our end.

Buff is arguably the best passer on the team as well as everything else that we know he brings. His absence is huge. Only JMo or Helle would be missed as much...maybe Lowry.
Lemieux had a good game as did JMo and Trouba. Myers stinks and I could crack walnuts with the sphincter every time he is near the puck in the D zone.
I'd bench Ehlers for a game or three and put Vaseline in his place....is Petan in game shape?
Can Poolman be as bad as Myers? Morrow? Chiarot? Samberg and Niku can't develop fast enough if you ask me.
How is Schilling doing for the Moose?
Maybe Buff should have been signed for 6 or 7 instead of 5?

We're 3-2-1 so clearly it's time to write off the season. Thanks for trying though :)

This season is going to be interesting.

We may struggle to get in the playoffs if this continues-
Based on what I've see so far, we are over rated.

The 3rd was bad enough but the OT was a disaster.

Surely I'm over reacting but it doesn't feel that way

Scheifele and Wheeler need to pull their heads out of their butts. Overpassing and dumb dump and chase chips. Wheeler had been atrocious 5 on 5 this year.
this is pissing me off so much.. he thinks because he trains with mcdavid he can stick handle and pass like him now.. chance to shoot passes.. he forgets he has a rocket shot and him and wheeler together try to be so cute until wheeler trips over his own feet as usual LOL


swap ehlers and connor and get our little dutch bastard going again!

The Canucks beat TB tonight so they had better not take them lightly next game. I wonder how POed Maurice is right now?

If this actually continues for the next 5-10 games PoMo needs to send a message to the team by breaking up Scheifele and Wheeler. It would send a message to the team that nothing is untouchable for the purpose of winning-even splitting up the 1st line man crush between Scheifele and Wheeler.

Morning schedule:

1. Wake up
2. Turn on your lap top in 30 secs after waking up
3. Check Jets game at NHL.com about 30 secs after turning the lap top on
4. Witness score box in the game center to notice that after ~10 secs of checking the game, Oilers score OT winner
5. After further 10-15 secs realize that Jets was already leading 4-1 at some point of the game
6. [horrible 20 secs long litany of blashemies here]
7. Few minutes for reading HFBoards and ranting this comment
8. 2 seconds for opening the morning's first beer can
9. Repeat above 8 as long as there are something to drink
10. Go back to sleep

Jets Sucks Jets!
