Draisaitl and McDavid came out to to face the media because they're sick of what's happening right now. It's a desperation call. I feel so sorry for them and the whole team. Knoblauch out ASAP
Whoah, I have never once heard a superstar caliber player say they are just not 'feeling it'. How about a little puck pursuit Leon – Christ you looked like Skinner without goalie pads out there tonight.
The Oil are tanking to try and get McKenna, let's not pretend that the NHL is not going to give Edmonton the draft lottery number 1 pick so Micdavid can go to win a cup and still have Edmonton get a generational first pick which seems to happen a lot the last 15 years. They've had Nugent Hopkins, Micd, Yakupov and Taylor Hall, all number 1 overall picks. Not sure how that is possible and still no cup to show for it. I hope the NHL doesn't gift them Mckenna, please.
Go back to the old defense system. Letting guys sit in front of the net is basic knowledge not to do lmao. Thats how you lose games. Heck put nurse by there and have him be a pest to every guy that steps foot in our crease. Plenty of nhl teams have that kind of player. We are soft and its hurting our play.
the oil are a top heavy team – 2 guys. we live and die by them. that said – we let kane and perry go. guys who could lighten the load on the big 2 in terms of noise in the room. stan should never have let perry go
HAY EDMONTON !!!!!!! your whole Defense is FUKED ! Usually it is NURSE now Ekholm / Out of position never looking around PLUS 2 DEFENSE BEHIND THE NET AT ONE TIME , COME ON COACH ! DO SOMETHING …. NOW THE GOALIE'S , IDEA , MAKE THE PUCK AS BIG AS A BEACH BALL , TRY THAT !!!!! ALWAYS NEXT YEAR !!!!!!!
Ppl talking about HC change again. Every 1-2 years we get a new coach. When ppl gonna realize that it’s not the coach, it’s prolly the turds on the roster
Have a feeling Drai will be wearing the C on his jersey in the next couple years. Mcdavid will venture elsewhere. Oilers will become a grittier more physical forechecking team when this happens.
You can tell Drai is upset. He's always been frank with the media but I feel now he's holding back a lot of frustration. That's what they need though, more passion, grit, urgency.
The biggest difference between McDavid and Drai is they use the word "I" a lot when describing being better. That is literally the definition of taking accountability. If you have ever listened to Darnell speak he always uses the collective "we". That is what makes him not a good member of the leadership group. This was on full display yet again listening to the difference of McDrai versus Nurse in the post game interviews

Where is Stu

That last goal was 100% on Drai, at a whopping $16m that can't happen.
He will request a trade
Skinners garbage goaltending absolutely deflates this team. He has to go

Should’ve kept Perry at least yea he’s old but he’s still solid kings leading goal scorer definitely should’ve kept Conner brown
That fancy giveaway behind your net cost the team a goal, stop hogging the puck.
Connor brown was the glue that held us together

Giving away Perry and Kane was dumb , they brought grit and leadership on the ice in these types of situations . Seems like vibe is off without them

No, just, no. Tickets are expensive. This is nuts.
Too much money can’t get motivated.
Another 10 years of this!? Scheiße!

Pissy Leon is great entertainment
