I like to be realistic on this team outlook after 20-25 games, not first 5 games. With that mark, we will know how good this team is after playing with different teams and where they stand after that mark. Of course, we'd love to see a strong start but even a good team had a poor start so after 20 or even 25 games, that's about 1/4 of the season and long ways to go.

Yet I'm still going to see people bitch about Vanek even though he's been our 2nd best player "sigh". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an interesting style, but it works! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingofsurrey Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 Hank and Danny Ice time cut - CHECK SVEN on PP1 - CHECK Virt given reasonable ice time - CHECK Played the backup Goalie Nilson - Check Virt and Boes both in the lineup - Check We get a win. I hope Coach Green is paying attention and realizes how this team can win moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have nothing after McDavid even if they do tank, they must pay other players and teams could fleece the OIlers by signing Dahlin to an offer sheet after his first ELC expire. They are tied 20 million dollars on just two players and that's an awful outlook.on their cap situation for their depth. You need depth to go anywhere. If Dahlin is what he as advertised, the Oilers will not be able to afford a third high salary tied to the cap after 3rd season of ELC due to RFA offer sheet. His agent will take a chance of free agent period after his first ELC rather than sign him early for less money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the principle though, and I would find it an aggravating coincidence. I doubt I'd stop watching, that would be an over-reaction, but somehow it would all be Messier's fault.

Gagner- Horvat - Vanek maybe can get the same magic going. You have your smaller winger that can make some plays happen for the stronger line mates, the power center that drives hard through the middle, and the shooting winger that can get the puck on net from any angle. Hope Greener keeps these guys together for a game or 2 to see what they can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an interesting style, but it works! Yeah and others look good, but don't finish. I know which one I'd rather have as a coach. A goal is a goal, a point is a point, doesn't matter how it's gotten or the play of a player beforehand. If they can score and be defensively responsible they are a valuable asset to the team. Many here still need to learn this while they go off about how amazing Boeser is, but Vanek is right on his tail in points and instead of praise is getting constant criticism from the same people.
