I'm surprised how many people still get so upset when we play god awful.
This is nothing knew, we have been getting blown out a handful of times every year, sometimes even more.
Life is too short to get worked up about the Barons. If they play this way in the NHL then we have problems.
I'm not too worried about the Barons losing though ofc I want the team to win, what bothers me is that the young stars that are the supposed future of the Oilers at times are just coasting or don't bother playing D. I really fear our young stars could turn into players who put up good points but doesn't win ****, ergo bad hockey players. We seriously need some solid veteran leadership or Oilers could turn into an overpaid squad of offensively skilled players that fold when the going gets tough.
Yeah, I know it's an overreaction but our youngsters seems to be developing some bad manners and it's frustrating. And yeah they put up great numbers but hockey isn't all about individual points, despite what seems to be common Hfboards knowledge, it's about making sure your team is winning, making sure it always take an effort to beat your team, the kids lack that atm as far as I'm concerned.
