NHL 2023-2024 season

[Coldrsx]

The Oilers continue to lack any sort of urgency, competency or care in the first 10-15 minutes of their game.

The second goal the Oilers had both D and an F out front, with none of them deciding to interact with the St. Louis forward who had a straight shot.

Hymen with his 39th and 40th to get to 2nd, yes SECOND in the league in goals.

Unreal.

In Hymen we trust!

Based on his comments and tone, it's most likely he's from Winnipeg or currently lives here. We tend to be our own worst critics here.

Any post he makes regarding the city he bashes on the citizens and the city itself. He's a troll.

Since I've discovered the ignore feature, it's made my time on this forum more enjoyable.

Besides, GB has put this issue to rest as a non-starter, and has also pointed out that other Canadian franchises have gone through much worse attendance issues than this team has ever seen. He's putting the issue to bed as a non-starter, but the trolls like Oddballs will keep coming with their anti-Winnipeg rhetoric because quite frankly, they have nothing better to do with their time.

Anyway, fifth place in the league, happy days!

An important extra OT point for the Oilers, but we certainly do not make it easy on ourselves.

8 x $11.6 million extension for Canucks' Elias Pettersson

[Coldrsx]

Skinner had another standout game that kept us in it until the rest of the team put one leg out of bed.

37 had a good effort too.

Seattle is a hard team to play against, but man oh man our forwards need to start making plays.

That said...

The Flyers set an NHL record last night, scoring their 5th goal on a penalty shot for the season.

[Coldrsx]

Oilers with a convincing 6-1 win over the Pens.

What a team effort with solid games from almost everyone.

Shame about not getting #30 his SO, but he will surely take that one.

Can Hyman hit 50?

Will McJesus snag the Art Ross?

The best stat and upward indicator for me these days is that we are now 4th in the league for DIFF (GF-GA) and only behind:

Florida (+57)
Canucks (+48)
Jets (+43)
Edmonton (+40)

That's good company.

Strong performance from the Western Canadian teams this year. Should be some good playoff matchups if they get through to the second round.

It would suck for the Jets to manage 1st in the Central only to end up with Vegas in the first round. They are our playoff kryptonite - and will be rolling into the playoffs in their typical fashion with all of their long term IR players making miraculous comebacks just in time for game 1.

[Coldrsx]

What a vote of confidence coming back in the last few minutes and then an OT win over the Bruins!

Skinner and Ullmark were both very good; it felt like everyone was tentative as if it was a game #1 of a deep, deep series.

This did highlight our need for depth scoring though.

GO OILERS GO!

[Coldrsx]

Depth acquired.

And now Friedman is reporting Hanafin is going to Vegas. They will just lay low until Round 1, Game 1.

[Coldrsx]

Christ I hope not, but yes, they seem to be mailing it in until the playoffs.

Sneaky bastards.

[Coldrsx]

Oilers keeping tabs on Eberle...

Bring him back baby!

[Coldrsx]

A replacement for Ceci?

Toffoli to the Jets!
