I think we know a thing or two about winning.
How is the lineup any worse than Vegas SC final team last year? It's a coaching thing.The lineup really is abysmal, it shouldn't be possible to build a lineup like that in their situation.
Coach is garbage as well.
He made some plays tonight, but his wingers sucked.Insert Hall picture here I guess. What about Drai? I haven't caught any of the games yet. Edmonton definitely needs more balanced scoring.

Nuke ownership hey?
I don't get why you think the lineup is abysmal? On paper the Oilers have a pretty good team and definately not worse than the one that went alll the way to the finals last season (Vegas).I'm missing the point?

The coaches should be able to get more out of this team.
Yeah. I mean we can parade Drai as a 1C or 2C all we want but until he has actual scoring wingers it's only going to keep his production down and more so create pressure on McDavid to basically carry the team.He made some plays tonight, but his wingers sucked.
Exactly. But even so a better coach managed to get that team to the finals.They certainly don't have, it lacks talent everywhere.
Not a playoff caliber team on paper.
Vegas didn't have years to build the roster with multiple high picks.
To be fair they've only had bad coaches. Also bad rosters. And management.It's always a "coaching problem"
Exactly. But even so a better coach managed to get that team to the finals.
McDavid has 3 points so far and the Oilers have 3 goals.
How can a team that drafted #1 overall three times in a row and 4 times in 6 years be so bad?
Literally no secondary scoring.
The main problem is Todd McLellan. He's got his grubby hands involved in everything and is incredibly stubborn. Manny Viveiros was hired (he had the top ranked power play in the entire CHL last season in Swift Current). McLellan isn't allowing him to run the PP for the Oilers.They didn't look great tonight.
Did they fire everyone involved in the pk last year? Because it's just as bad as before
Huh, now that you mention it, the Oilers have been pretty bad for a while, haven't they?
