Working hard is great, but I'd also like them to work one hell of a lot smarter.I'll be working my ass off tomorrow during this game and will hopefully watch the game on replay after I come home with more aches and pains than usual. Hopefully the boys bring the same work ethic that I will in spite of me making peanuts compared to them.
I think that is definitely because of the extreme talent on it, and certainly not some of the decisions they make.There's no way the oilers PP is second in the whole league? But it looks so awful?

What kind of a blender will we witness today? Will Knob start pulling goaltenders after 3 early goals? Will the team revert back to ACTUAL zone defense? Will they watch tape and start simplifying their game. Will they learn to stop giving the puck away? Will the defense quit abandoning the front of our net. Will they start games on time and play a full 60 minutes. Will they quit being cute and actually shoot the puck? Will they play with more intensity? Will they throw some more hits?
If they don't, they won't make it past the 1st round.
What does Ceci even do? No shot, no physicality, no foot speed… Just exists like he was one of the 60 defenseman we saw in the decade of darkness.I expect them to play better, they should sit Ceci for Stetcher
Great observation.There's no way the oilers PP is second in the whole league? But it looks so awful?
Leavins and Micheals both think Skinner will get the start again tonight
Really hope they are wrong
You can be sure you'll work harder than them.I'll be working my ass off tomorrow during this game and will hopefully watch the game on replay after I come home with more aches and pains than usual.

I didn't think Ceci was that bad yesterday. Mind you, as a group, they were horrible, so it' not saying much. I thought VD was pretty bad and looked really rusty. I expect him to be much better today.I expect them to play better, they should sit Ceci for Stetcher
The PP should be something that gets them going at the beginning of the game. Instead, too many times there is no urgency or intelligent decisions, and just as in yesterday, it sucks the life out of the team when it fails. As they say about PP's, it's when you score on them that's most important. Apparently when you're down 5-0 halfway through the 3rd period is when they think it's good to start bearing down on the PP.Great observation.
Too many brain dead players on the pp.
Gotta get Skinner going after yesterday
Wouldn’t surprise me if Pickard signs somewhere else next year
You can’t possibly blame that first goal on Skinner. Maybe if big 73 had a clue how to defend guys wouldn’t be getting wide open looks from ten feet in front of the net.What sucks the life out of the team? Going down 1-0 every game on the first or second shot because our goalie isnt ready to start the game
