2:50 thats all you needed to here. "When your best players are your best players you typically win the game." Thats just straight ignorance and unwillingness to change. He clearly refuses to stop playing Mcdavid and Draisaitl over 25 minutes a game! He only hopes they can score 5 points a night and carry the team. They've wasted 10 years of their career and you're asking them to be better? What a joke. Maybe do what you did they other day and play the lines that produced more then 10 minutes genus. You are a disgrace to all the coachs in this league and you should be fired. Blaming this on connor and leon when the defense is abysmal is ridiculous.
People blame the coach first thing they blame and second they blame the goalie that's why skinner got traded when are people going to wake up and it just not the coach its the players and the goalies. Stop blaming one person every damn game
No hope for this team this year, just not their year. Walman and Nurse and even Ekholm are not playing up to their standards, all lack a ton of confidence right now. Oilers weakness right now are against fast teams like the Ducks, Habs, Sharks – crusty team not equip anymore to match those young guns
Guys , that’s all folks! I feel the team has just played too much hockey over 3 years. They’re mentally not there. They need a short season and reset for next year
Team needs to technically be pushed to learn new strategies and location awareness instead of reverting to old comfortable complacency .

Paul begin regimental instructions for every D LINE — STOP PUCK CHASING . D TAKE THE MAN , They CAN'T GET A SHOT IF YOU'RE ALL UP IN THEIR GRILL. don't take penalties , but get in their space
Wingers you be ready for rebound or deflections and crowd players in & open in front of the net .

What's wrong with trying Nurse at wing? He could probably forecheck nicely and we have actual defensemen to backline if he makes a bad play. Maybe we get more use out of him there?
When your best player is Bouchard, that’s a red flag. Everyone turned pucks over, including him, and that tunnel vision doesn’t kill offense, it kills your defense and leads to big giveaways. And ripping Nurse is pointless. His contract isn’t movable. He’s an asset you can’t get rid of, so the only real option is to figure out how to use him properly and get him playing the way the team needs.

And the summers of both Jeff Jackson and Stan Nepo Bowman still come back to haunt the Oilers.
Who’s that idiot asking the dumb questions ? Wow I can’t believe they let him in the media circle. Spec?
Same all song and dance

You guys can forget about winning the cup this year, you just don’t have it.
Nurse, Jarry, have to go. Bring in Binnington, or even a cheaper backup to Ingram, along with a stud d man.

They played like they’re trying to get Knoblauch fired
Retool this summer don’t spend any more assets at the deadline!
Bench missed first goal being offside. It wasn't even close. Guy leaving zone was 1 foot offside when Celebrini crossed line.
Giving up two unearned goals, Ingram isn’t ready, he has puck location inconsistency.
Ingram isn't your answer Mcbaby given up the winning goal
Everybody gets angry with Mark Spector, at least he asks real questions about the games and players.
😂😂😂

McDavid is asking for a trade in the offseason at this rate

Idiots
The Coaching bro…
I don't think Bowman helped with the crappy players they brought in
Playoffs are not in the cards stop giving useless players big contracts 🤬
Fire Knob!
