Of course he can. When the Oilers are playing to tue best of their abilities in these playoffs, no team can hang with them, and no game has been close . When they take stupid penalties or take their foot off the gas they are very beatable, and while Skinner has not saved them from a game they deserved to lose in this playoffs, he hasn’t cost them a game they otherwise should have won. He goes as this team goes.

No team can hang with them? There is this team called the Panthers that can probably hang with them. You know, the one that beat them in the Finals last year. Just sayin. Hell, the Kings were 25 seconds from going up 3-1 in that series before they let them off the hook. Go Stars!!!

Read more, post less. Of course any team can beat them when the Oilers play stupid or lazy, but so far in this playoffs , nobody has matched up with them when they are playing to their full capabilities. They haven’t lost a game where they played great, the other team was just better .
