Why does this team leave point men so open and have a collapse mentality in their own end? This is solely on the coaches system.
Oilers are a garbage team beaten by another garbage team. They will be hard pressed to make the playoffs and if they do they will do nothing. I hope there will be some drastic changes forthcoming.
Team's not worth watching live. That's why I always record and FF lol
The system is just trash.
The team collapses to the middle, but they never pick up anyone around the net. Watch Keith on the last tying goal. He's up crosschecking some guy in the slot while the eventual goal scorer is just chilling right at the edge of the crease behind him.
Then watch them defending the rush. The defense play thirty feet off the blue line and the forwards are supposed to force the puck to the outside at the blueline. This gives the other team free entries along the boards every single rush. Then the kicker is the forwards are usually flatfooted at the blueline, so the puck carrier can just cut back to the middle in the pocket between the D and forwards. If that doesn't happen, the other teams' forwards just skate by the stationary Oilers forwards and turn every ordinary rush into a 3 on 2 and sometimes even a 4 on 2 if the Oilers center doesn't skate back hard(which they never do) and a D activates.
