First 10: 7-3-0
Second 10: 3-7-0
Last 10: 7-3-0

Up and down like a toilet seat said our GM last year. Toilet seat should stay up for the next 10 games.

Here is a rundown of the next 10, in order:

StL home
Ducks home (afternoon game)
Nashville away
Dallas away
Vancouver home
Calgary away
Seattle away
Winnipeg home (2nd of a back to back, dreaded New Years Eve game)
Seattle home
Islanders home

6 out of 10 at home, games pretty much every other day which seems to get the Oilers in a groove and only 1 back to back which is a road/home whereas Winnipeg will have a day between games.

Foegle should be coming back shortly (unless he is dead and the Oilers aren't saying anything), maybe McLeod as well? Hopefully Campbells game continues to improve and he isn't costing us games in this 10.

Given our opponents and no more major injuries, we should be able to run at least another 7-3, and perhaps even as high as a 9-1 (we never win in Dallas).

I am going to say 8 wins, 8-1-1 on a nice Christmas holiday heater.

They said Mcloed was weeks away last week.

The Oilers should have a winning record in these ten games

Ken Holland - "McLoed and Kane are basically deadline day acquisitions we got early" he he

I think the Oilers go 5 wins, a few losses, and an OTL

This is the soft part in our schedule, that we have been waiting for all year. I think we can easily win 8 and anything less will be disappointing. It will mean the difference between resting our stars a little in preparation for the playoffs and battling to get in only to be spent by the time the playoffs start.

Interesting how the bolded part coming into the season was thought to be a nice little easy stretch of schedule post-Christmas, but now looks to be a pretty difficult and important sequence.

I'll say 7-3.

Both Woody and Nurse will say we played unbelievable in the 3 losses.

Amazing what a week does. I came to visit this place a week ago and everyone was in a desperate rage to fire everyone. Next 10 games looks pretty good.
Wait till the next loss, lol. The knives will be out.

Every single one of these games are winnable games. Dallas and the Islanders likely give us problems, but we should have a nice run in the next 10. Some of these games we absolutley can't lose
