LeBron is a plug, come on , get real
1:44:15 Love the shot at Barn Burner. Talk about having their rivals living rent free in their heads.
1:18:00 Has Kris Knoblauch put players in the right spot to contribute? How has that worked out for Trent Frederic, or Andrew Mangiapane, or Viktor Arvidsson, or Jeff Skinner, Or Alec Regula? What a joke of a statement to say Knoblauch is a better at getting others involved than Jay Woodcroft. 11 Oilers forwards scored at least 10 goals in 2022-23, under Woodcroft. Mattias Janmark of all people scored 10 goals that year. Meanwhile Knoblauch has only twice put Frederic in the right spot to help the team so far this season.
As for relying on 29 and 97 more, I haven't looked at the numbers, but McDavid's and Draisaitl's TOI is about the same as when Woodcroft was coaching. Also this season how often have we seen the Nuclear option being engaged before the game is even 30 minutes old? I am concerned that Craig has taken a few too many pickleballs to the head.
yeah canada is missing its top players in the NHL.. easy to say they would win if celebrini was there.. but canada still has the major advantage in depth, and that is my criticism of the latest canadian teams.. canada can build any team they want, big/speed/skilled/defensive, whatever you want. but something is always lacking. wasnt impressed martone or mckenna and how they carried themselves. mckenna in that czech game, why was he even on the ice. zero fight.
and they didnt win the last two times all of the players has been available, 2021 in the bubble, and 2013. so that isnt a given either.
