5 games played, the Oilers have a great team. I expect them to be in the playoffs this year. They are in a division that is wide open with Calgary and Las Vegas. Lots of talent and room to be successful, Good Luck Edmonton 🍁
I think the Carolina game is the only game the Oilers have dictated play and hopefully that doesn’t continue for very long as they keep missing points and falling farther behind. I think the road trip coming up will get the juices flowing better than home cooking.
Draisaitl had a real tough game. His penalty lead to the game winning goal and he lost the faceoff leading to the empty netter. He has to be better. Outside of that way too many guys aren’t doing anything. Puljujarvi 0 points in 5 games making 3 million. Yamamoto 1 point in 5 games making 3 million. Kulak 0 points when he is expected and paid to be the 2nd pair d man. Foegele 0 points. Ryan 0 points. Shore 0 points. Murray 1 point. Lack of depth will drown this team. Way too many below average players right now.
Drai has to be better. Yes he is elite and one of the best passers in the game. That being said it’s 2-3 times a game he is giving the puck away on passes he normally makes with ease. Also not sure if Kulak has new skates/blades or the sharpening is a bit different but the blowing the tire on the blue line needs to stop. Last point is JP. Super frustrating to watch the play die all to often with him involved. He was an analytical beast. So far this year his stat lines are awful.

C'mon Jay. They look like a Tippett run team.
That third line did most of the work today.
Jay as lost the roon he's to soft of a coach should of put Manson as coach
Can’t just played hockey.. no checks no roughness, nothing at all not engaging enough..
Give blues credit, they made you play there game
weird, as far as losses are concerned…..strong game by both teams, blues even stronger.
What a pathetic effort so far this season
The boys will be fine, just have to be more truculent..
Teams better then there playing Jay I’ve seen it time to crack the whip

The Oilers passing was off in general leading to many turnovers.
It is a blessing, really, to be playing these elite teams early in the season and take pointers on what needs attention.
One to grow on.
Good game.😉
It was good game tho but intense
im not concerned its a game of luck rubber bouncing around an ice rink
Blues are another contender in the league. Hopefully the Oilers can improve for the next match.
One moment decided the game? One mistake? Sounds myopic to me.
