Marek and Elliotte discuss something briefly which I think is interesting and very true imo: the Oilers and Oilers FANS may be talking themselves into “we don’t have a goaltending issue.”

It’s nothing against their fans, the team, and the goalies (Kos, and Skinner/ Smith)… but you can’t help but think it’s gonna be April/ May and if there’s not a new goalie there’s gonna be regrets.

Well, he's not back yet but depending on how Gorton and new GM want to play it, he might be in years to come ( he does have a NMC though )

I’m just rooting for them to lose at this point, get a top 10 draft pick.

Any player in the draft you want specifically (besides Wright cuz we’d all like him lol)

Fun fact about wright. My neighbor plays with Kingston, and he says that the media hype is real and he’s legit heads above everyone else

The isles struggles are self inflicted and mainly due to terrible coaching decisions. That doesn’t look like it’s going to change because Trotz cares more about making certain vets feel comfortable than winning games. It’s already unlikely they make the playoffs so might as well root for a high draft pick than a mid rd pick. Finishing that low in the standings should also lead to some much needed changes (breaking up the 4th line, adding a puck mover etc..)

Is it just me or has Connor Bedard’s season been disappointing?

But full retain and Vitek is shaky and Sammy is good.

Yeah but who knows when he comes back, the price is going to be exorbitant, and you are going to pay far too much for a name brand. Vitek and Sammy have been a great tandem, and Vitek's stats aren't totally reflective of his play as he faced some very tough opponents. I'd rather keep what we have than go out and overpay for a 34 year old goalie who costs a fortune, both in contract and trade price.
