We hear so much about how god damned fast the Oilers are. It rarely feels like we use our speed to our advantage.

Then there's the fact that our Dmen aren't aware they're allowed to carry the puck out of their own zone.

For sure I too am exhausted with the stretch pass.
Hell, even the extra leg kick body language associated with it.

Bridge to nowhere.

Thanks pal. Oilers fans are agreeable when they're self-loathing, aren't they?
- Morris

Yup!

No penalty shot?

Nice penalty kill by Mike Brown and Mike Brown alone.

wow I never realized he was so Datsyuk (sp) like?

WOW - seriously, Belanger with quite a few lackadaisical gaffs lately.

Seth Jones...?





I pictured a turn of events like this in my nightmares.

Fukk, what I wouldn't do for the January Oilers that had trouble scoring but still generated offense.

It's just because he's new and full of vigour. Soon enough he'll be like the rest.

If this continues, Tambs, Lowe, maybe the coach have to be worried?

At least we're shooting the puck and getting chances. Dubnyk is obviously much much better than Danis and now the thought that playing him even as a third goalie should be untenable.

Theo Peckham is playing well. Nail Yakupov is playing well. the rest are solidly meh to me.

Seth Jones...?

Has any team picked first overall 4 times in a row? Just asking, no need to kill me.

Am I the only one that thinks that the Fisher take down on Petry should have been a penalty?

Quebec Nordiques. They traded their last pick - Lindros.

Just got home from work so i'm not sure, but I am thinking I should have stayed and got some OT...

It would be another Oilers record.

Just tuned in and saw 4-0. Immediate shut off.

Makes me laugh the posters gettin pissed at those of us unhappy with this debacle and wanting change.

What a joke this franchise is

Actually NVM they only drafted thrice in a row but they drafted 3rd the year previous and 4th the year after.

Seth Jones...?

This is so bad.

I'm now dreaming up half-scenarios where a team wants a top 3/4 pick and a little package for a need. It would at least be a lot more interesting then seeing Tambellini say "...The Edmonton Oilers are proud like a lion to select..."

Just a nauseating loop with the concerns and conversation around this team.

You're just in time for a five goals unanswered third period.

This is so bad.

Everything about this team is nauseating. New slogan: out of breath for Seth

I may be selfish, It wouldn't help the team in the long run, but I would rather see the Oilers go on a tear and finish 9th in the conference, drafting some nobody than tanking again and drafting Seth Jones. Honestly. I'm not watching the draft this year, I'm not posting about it. I don't care. This team should get roster players.

I agree. But I would find it way too funny if they did finish 9th and won the lottery.
