Here we go again !
It really sucks that we play our easiest opponent (NYR in my opinion) in the afternoon. They're bad, but I think we're worse in the afternoon
Even before that game I was thinking the team at best could hit 0.500 in October. You will most likely be shocked at us being under 0.500 but even with the media guys, it seemed like the forgone conclusion.Pfft... I'd be shocked if they are under .500 at the end of the month.
You all are too easily rattled. This team will rebound and look better with resilience.
They realize they **** the bed and didn't play a full 60 minute game. So be it... not the end of days after game 1 of an 82 game schedule.
I expect solid, hard working performances going forward for the rest of October. If they can't show that through those games this month... then sure, pull the plug... but way too much is being made over a single overseas loss.

That happened a lot last year and we all know how that season turned out. In fact, when's the last time they did play a 60 minute game? Game 1 of last year?
Brutal schedule, I think they can win against the Rangers, Wild, and Blackhawks - those are the easiest ones left. It's crazy to think that Chicago is consider an easier win in the first 10 - but that's just how hard those first opponents are.
So I'm saying 3 wins - but watch, it won't be those three I'm suggesting.
Drives me nuts when fans and media go on about easy vs tough teams for the oilers to play against. 'Just get through this stretch and everything will be okay!'
Newsflash: There are no easy teams for this squad.
I'd rather have Gulutzan coaching. I think he at least line matches.Worst part for Oil faithful is when Todd gets the axe is that he is likely replaced with Gulutzen.
Rishaug on TSN said the Oilers are the ones that chose to have this massive road trip at the beginning of the season. They had the option of going home but they chose to have a Eastern road trip coming off the game in Sweden.
Apparently McDavid's agent is not happy with the 4 day break.

He's got great hair too.
That gif was ahead of its time, no question about it.
How prophetic...
