Maybe the reason Oilers are struggling and can't win a cup is the fact the fans put so much pressure on players to win every game , saw that with Skinner , should fire the fans .
Is it reasonable to expect this group to be doing better than they are?
Leon, I’m German. Get out of there, they‘re cursed. Better try your luck somewhere else!😮
I got frustrated because the only reliable way to get to the Offensive zone against the Flyers was to rely almost exclusively on McDavid's individual efforts. Ok, you can depend to some extent on the most valuable player of the league but NOT SO MUCH! The team is too predictable lately!
Has to be demoralizing for the team to see Bouchard figure skate out there with little to no effort game after game. And zero apparent consequences. It spreads.
Pete deboer still available😊
The kid line is our last hope, barring some miracle at trade deadline.
So you absolutely go-all in, do not scratch any of them, you play that line again and again ie- for 10 games straight until they are NHL adapted & gelling once again like they were in the AHL, and have become a formidable 3rd line that actually has scoring.
If Knob messes up this opportunity by line juggling every f'en game and there is still no bottom-6 chemistry by April (and if Drai has not returned to form) the Oilers are totally hooped in 1st round if they even make the playoffs.
This roster can't crack an egg…..Nurse and his Twerly slap fights ain't putting fear into anyone.
Don't you think he has a longer leash on his coaching position because he is basically a McDavid hire? Also the Oilers are currently first in the division(albeit a bad division). He is not getting fired anytime soon. I know a lot of Oiler fans are looking for that coaching change cure that will drive the Oilers into a .800% for the rest of the season, like last time.
Also, re mange and frederic: their numbers have dropped considerably in the last two-three years.. mange especially . It seems Bowman picks players based on their game game from a few years ago and not current. It’s a huge problem. Look at their last year of play and let that be your guide.
Oilers have world class players but coaching is really an issue. This year with the condensed schedule, plus the number of games Oilers had already played in past three years, including playoff, I am not optimistic at all.
Boucard😂 joke
Knobs seems to be always be "adjusting" and making decisons on the fly, indecisive lately, etc. In contrast, I been watching the Av's and their coach just sits back and barely has to do/say anything while on the bench. I think the Av's built a strong structure, foundation, identity and system behind the scenes, during training camp, etc and now they just let em loose and watch the magic. Its like a master programmer who programs a well oiled machine and then just hits the button and watches the machine do they work and get results. The Oilers Machine needs "Oil" Ironocally. I like knobs though I wish he succeeds but if they continue to flail, they may be forced to make that change
Nurse only made it this far because he is very athletic, he has no hockey brain. zero hockey IQ. 97 is gone in 2 years. this team is not good enough and management are a bunch of clowns
Wonder if Coffey would come back if he was head coach?
Shoot the puck , SHOOT! so many times the oilers possess the puck in the o-zone for 1 minute +. Playing keep away. No pressure on net. Watch florida. Watch colorado. 2 passess in the ozone and there is a shot towards the net. There needs to be a 3 pass maximum rule in the ozone. Then a puck needs to go on net.
When it comes to the bottom six, you wont get much production from them until you start giving them more PP time. Hutson for example. Mangiapane another example. I dont care if the PP % drops, having 2 PP units will get more players involved, build confidence , and get more players involved. Whatever is lost on the PP will be made up with 5v5 play.
push podz down for a couple of games. 2nd line is not producing anything.
kapanan on line 2 😮 oof
let the bottom sixers play bottom six and try talent on line 2
Austin on the warpath to fix the team! Lovin it. Knobs gotta go, Knobs gotta go lol
i mean what happens if we fire knob? we hire another coach go on a 10 game win streak make it back to the finals just to lose because no depth scoring and mcdavid draisaitl get infected by injuries 😢
I agree Draisaitl has dried up in last few games here. He is not moving his feet. A lot of the goals against is the fault of that line. Giving the top two lines most of the game minutes leaves little time for the third and fourth to really build chemistry. I would like to see Lazar as third line centre. The kids need to have a veteran player to play with. Henrique for me would always be fourth line centre. Why is Mangiapane even playing right now he should be a healthy scratch. You cannot have all your smaller player on one line. Each line definitely needs a grinder that is willing to crash the net and hit. There is a reason why Draisaitl requests to have Podkolzin on his line because he’s a grinder. That’s Lazar on the third line. Your fourth line should almost be grinders to wear down the other team. That’s your job. That is not Savoie or mangiapane. They must give that third line more ice time. Six minutes in a game is not enough to build any chemistry.
Line blending has killed this team. Period All the best teams have set lines, always been that way. Set the lines and let them develop chemistry, familiarity and flow.
Oilers need a coach who understands, they aren't a defense team. Built for speed, Goal's. Let them play
I'm all for getting woodcroft back
30% = Bowman Jackson
The team has no identity
Consistency both ends of the ice has been a problem. This team can look good for a stretch and look bottom of the barrel for a stretch. More lows than highs so far this season, I honestly dont see the Oilers making it past the first round. Coaching is an issue, I am so sick of seeing the lines changed constantly and we need a coach that is gonna light a fire under these guy's ass when needed…Knobs aint that guy….dont get me started on Bowman or Jackson.
I’m so pissed we need a new coach and desperately the oilers CANT JS CANT continue the season with Kris. We need a new coach.. I bet if we get a new coach he’d be surprised how much talent this team has that Knoblauch isn’t putting to use I BET.
Fire all the main guys Jackson, Bowman, and Knoblauch.
Something is wrong with this team, lack of heart/passion, urgency, and putting players in positions that shouldn't be in.
That team needs some kinda spark
You should be the head coach for the oilers, probably do better than knbolock lmao
If they fire the coach, no more hiring a brand new coach. Hire someone who has experience. I'm not a fan of Knob. I think Gully and Coffey were huge reasons for the success the last two seasons. Every day/night this season I look at the lineup or lines and cannot believe what I'm seeing.

I live that ,,,allergic to hitting lol!
Every game I say fire knob. Did you people think I said that for no reason? Knob is a line blendering cancer who is bum-buddies with jeff( liver-lips) jackson. Who is also a cancer.
