  1. Got hyped up for this only to watch them lose to the jackets 😭

  2. Jay, I have no idea what you're going on about about being happy with the effort and how Columbus is "well coached" and all the other compliments you gave them. Jay, wake up, your team which is allegedly a contender just lost to the LAST PLACE time in the league! I don't care if you want to protect the boys, they are big boys, they should be able to take a little heat. They played like crap, 27 giveaways, terrible defense, Skinner two questionable goals, poor puck management. Their effort was TERRIBLE! And yes, you outshot them, but how dangerous were you guys really? Not very to my eye!

    The fact is this just what the Oilers do, they play down to their opposition, so I have no idea how you can come out there with a straight face and spew that delusional positivity. Ok, Oilers rant is over.

  3. Not gonna listen to any of this post game crap…or fanboy, rosey-red glasses garbage. We had an opportunity to win 7 straight and more importantly, showup in front our fans and win a GIMME GAME. Theoretically easier than post-All-Star, stretch ones. I don't wanna hear any spin or excuses. Many of us, who really know this team, wondered when they were gonna serve up a stinker❓️One powerplay, that's the kind of offensive effort they showed❗️Against the lowest placed team of 32, in the NHL. There was little sustained O-zone pressure at all. Connor & Leon were barely any kind of threats. How many times did I see us lose puck battles, dump the puck, due to lazy frustration, turn it over, endlessly. Not much real physicality…it was boring as hell👎

  4. To those who laughed at my pregame comment regarding the Oilers not being prepared for the 2nd worst team in the league, I take no pleasure in saying I was right. Horrible effort right across board from every Oiler player that touched the ice tonight. And yes that was indeed a point lost… rather than a point gained. I don't agree with 99.9% of the questions coming from these reporters, but that question was right on the money. And of course Jay giving his usual predictable reply "I thought we were competitive" lol No you weren't competitive..not even close. The entire team couldn't finish if their season depended on it. Every player was dreaming about the vacation time coming up. Exactly what I thought would happen. The Oil fell into that arrogant over confident "scheduled win" trap… thinking the pucks were just going to fall into Columbus's net. Holy crap was that an embarrassing game for the Oilers. I think it's good thing they got a good ass kicking by the 2nd worst team in the league..wakes every one up for the next bottom feeder team.

  5. This game accentuates and epitomizes all the terrible habits that plagued this team before the streak. Shall I list them Jay?..sure you got it. Not scoring first, not holding a lead, turn overs, defensively atrocious, indifferent, lazy, soft goals, not finishing, my fingers are cramping from typing just those noted mistakes…and the list goes on, but I'll stop there. You can't lose to a team like this without making every possible mistake you can think of in the game of hockey.

  6. Start Campbell next game he’s been playing amazing and won 5 straight for you guys! Skinner was good don’t get me wrong but Campbell deserves the start in Chicago

  7. Shouldn’t be giving up 2 important points to a basement team when you are on a 6 game winning streak. Gotta find a way to get the W there, especially when fighting for position in standings.

    Jay can talk his positive jargon all he wants they played like s**t.

    Ah well take the point and move on I guess…

    They should beat Chicago…

    Go Oilers Go!

  8. Players trying to be to cute and fancy. Once Columbus started boxing them out to the outsides only and not taking any penalities oilers didn't know how to readjust. Learn how to play simple. You look at all of Columbus's goals and they were gritty chippy goals.

  9. Woody and Co. were outcoached, Jesses line was outstanding ,a really fast heavy load opponents cannot handle ,Holloway fits perfectly with Jesse. That Oilers line can force opponents to bring down better d-men and adjust their line management.

  10. I just don’t understand how we are losing to bottom teams. The point is great and all, especially if we start a new winning streak. But it’s alarming that the Oil struggles against bottom teams.

  11. The jackets goalie made some awesome pad saves in close, have to say he was the difference in this game.

  12. I saw this coming a mile away. The Oilers have taken the night off against bottom feeding teams for years.

  13. Not good enough period, no “competitive” bullspit spin on it. Loser mentality Jay!

  14. Jay doesn't wanna throw anyone under the bus in front of the media for a lackluster performance. Hopefully the talk behind the doors was different. These scripted clichéd answers for the media is a joke. That's why Tortorella will be one of the best and most direct coaches in terms of media interaction – he would have no hesitation slamming the team for their crap performance in front of the media.

  15. The Oilers continue to keep the three person top line out in OT, way too long. Not a very good OT team anymore.

  16. Oilers get butt hurt with a bad loss and will probably need to build the power flow back into play! but that may not happen for Many Daze!

  17. That was a fine example of a team loss. They ALL didn’t come to play last night and it showed. In reality, the oil were lucky to come out of that game with a point

  18. Again, the hometown no look passing tricky crap that always sinks 'em.

  19. Disappointed with lethargic high priced defender.
    On the positive, Jesse P is growing great balls of fire.

  20. Another Coach’s loss. Thought you liked the Hopkins, Janmark, Kostin Line Yet you mix them up. Find your lines and quit screwing them up. Also work on the teams 1 vs 1 battles already, been losing those all season. Playing hockey not Chess coach.

  21. Having Leon play OT is dangerous…….never backchecks, skates slowly everywhere…….he is no centre but needs to be moved to the wing!

  22. Those particular home uniforms are whack. Trash them shits.They should use the uniforms and jerseys with the regular Oilers logo.
