  1. I think the oilers need to give up on finding someone to play withNurse, or rather someone that Nurse can play with. Bite that bullet and be done with it. Next up on my list would be a legitimate starting goalie. IMO. Thanks Patrick

  2. Hey Patrick. You should really Lowetide’s article on the Oilers defence in the Athletic. He does an amazing breakdown. The Oilers 2nd pair with Nurse/Kulak/Stetcher are playing typical of a 2nd pair on a championship team. He also suggested a 3rd pair LS

  3. Good review Patrick, as always. What are you personally thinking about our tenders? I think we are OK, everyone seems to be panicking about tenders but I think it is too early to sell the farm.

  4. Hextall ruined Prov in my opinion. I think he would absolutely thrive under Coffey. That being said, I would feel a lot better about the D if the upgrade had size and could defend well on the 2nd pairing.

  5. KK might be good for both he and the team. Cheap experiment. Defense is not at Stanley Cup level. Hopefully something happens in time to gel. Wonder if David Savard would be a fit ? Thanks for the update

  6. Petterson $4 million. Broberg $4 million. Damn dumbasses letting him go. If they'd matched, we'd still have him and not have to screw around looking someone else. Broberg supposedly now the Blues' best defenseman. He will be an all-star. Ken Holland gone. Broberg gone. Stan Bowman in. Team management headed in the right direction: directly south into the crapper. Can't manage the janitor's closet. Maybe Bowman is the Manchurian Candidate. For what team? LA? Vancouver? Calgary? My pick is LA. They want revenge for the Oilers knocking them out of the playoffs the last couple of years. I think Broberg is better in every way than Stecher or Emberson and some of these trade possibilities. What do you think? You mean to tell me they couldn't have found the money to keep him? Kane is on LTIR. Work it out. Pretend you're the Golden Knights. They're very creative and would have found a way to do it. Letting Broberg and Holloway go for nothing is the worst thing the team has done since trading Gretzky. At least we got something back for him and those players helped the Oilers win the Cup in 1990. Now we have two big holes to fill. Those 'holes' aren't going to help the Oilers win the Cup this year. I know I shouldn't pick on Bowman. Maybe he'll be able fix things. I sure as hell hope so. Otherwise, the big Bat Signal should light up the sky over the Ice District summoning Ken Holland to return to his office in Rogers Place and get to work filling those holes.
