This is the DUMBEST rule in hockey. Just because a stick broke, does NOT mean a penalty should be awarded.
Cole Caufield takes a penalty late in the game.

People have commented about how the Oilers are a 2-3 man team over the years, and I've always really pushed back on that. But this year it's undeniable to this point.

The bottom half of this roster is waive wire worthy. 6 guys are carrying this team to a win night after night. It's very reminiscent of 2020-2022

McDavid does not need assistance scoring. That's a gift and a half

People would be very surprised to see how hockey players interact with each other behind closed doors. Several hockey players have said that McDavids outburst was rather tame, especially given the situation. Not everything is sunshine and rainbows behind closed doors.
Also people really overreact to that outburst. He got mad, he didn’t say anything offensive, he didn’t say anything mean or personal, he just told them all to dig the fuck in. What’s so bad about that lol. You all act like he told them all to kill themselves or something

It's outrageous that DET turned that down. Outrageous.
David Pagnotta: Detroit is looking for more than Michael Misa in exchange for Simon Edvinsson; I think the Sharks would be comfortable 1-for-1; it doesn't sound right now...that Detroit would do that straight up - DFO Insider (11/4)

2 min shift for 29-97 with 4 mins left to go with an EN. Just honestly so un-necessary its not even funny.

Do players on the team have roles or not? I thought we brought this coach because we wanted them to have roles?

Oilers have played 3 games this season where they've lost a forward for the game in the first period due to injury.

Might have to look this up, but that is the first goal for EDM without one of 97, 29 or 2 on the ice in a long long time.

A depth goal? In this economy? Wow.

Formenton and Joseph can't get out of their own zone against the Vancouver Canucks, who have 1 win in their last 15 games. Brutal.

The Oilers and 2nd periods. Weirdest dynamic going on for them right now.

The more the games go on, the more terrified with the coaching staff I am. Winning be damned, if they can't see issues after 17 games, they aren't going to see them in a 4-7 game series.
I had the Canucks with as many high-danger chances as the Oilers in that period. Lotta shot total padding by my eye. Also could the bottom six check-in with some offense soon. My word.

Not making adjustments to the Formenton-Joseph pairing + just running Michaels out there cuz he's a RHC is just bewildering at this point.

Canucks PK is so stagnant. I know it's the Oilers, but letting them globetrotter you isn't the best strategy.

Elks got very lucky there on that 2nd down play. Looked like the catch was out of bounds, no challenge. Strange play.

If the Oilers can't find internal solutions to the defense, Korczak would be a fantastic fit. Pushes Murphy down to a role more suited for him, Shea gets a puck mover to help him excel in his role.

He's also very much a Mike Babcock type player.
