If I was an Oiler fan I'd frankly be embarrassed of needed to be carried by the refs every game to get ahead in the standings. I appreciate being a fan of a team that actually has to grind out wins
Looks like a cutscene. Feels like a calling.

The pressure is on in Oil Country.
In Bob’s 18 years of working for the Oilers you don’t see many tweets like you see below.
Tristan Jarry might appreciated this statement on Friday afternoon on Oilers Now instead he gets them 72 hours later.
This tweet is made because what didn’t happen on Friday’s show in our opinion.
Jarry is the fell guy here & that’s unfair.
But he’s a pro & he’s going to do everything he can to be the Game 1 Starter come Opening Night of the Playoffs. We believe in him.
The segments with you & Ryan are entertaining because they are nothing like the rest of the segments all week.
Ryan brings the heat so you both challenge each other on full display for 22-25 minutes. Then have a great laugh afterwards.
But just maybe if the spotlight wasn’t put on Jarry on Friday afternoon no one is talking about what happened at practice on Thursday of last week 72 hours later.
The situation with his teammates would not be public knowledge if it wasn’t brought up on air.
Just a thought.
It’s been a season of ups & downs for the Oilers because Stan Bowman & Jeff Jackson haven’t put this team in a great situation going forward here.
More importantly Stan Bowman has been out of the league too long to understand what it takes to build a winning culture & winning organization.
Those Cups in Chicago are really Dale Tallon’s Cup if we are all being very honest with the situation & go down a rabbit hole to understand who really built that team.
Jackson is a great agent. He’s not a great executive.
Bowman & Jackson need to be removed from this organization if Connor McDavid isn’t hosting the Cup this year.
The next General Manager of the @EdmontonOilers should be Kevyn Adams. He’s another guy who got the wrong end of the deal. That’s his @BuffaloSabres team making noise in a Positive way.
The pressure is on in Edmonton because it’s Cup or Bust.
No Cup this year means the media will run with what Pierre LeBrun said on TSN OverDrive last week revealing Connor McDavid leaving Edmonton before his 2 year contract extension expires.
Let’s see if this group can win a @StanleyCup this year.

Jason Dickinson, who the Oilers acquired to be a defensive matchup centre, had the second-least amount of ice time for Oilers forwards at 5v5 against the Hurricanes tonight. #LetsGoOilers
@AustinHockeyYT Dickinson played 2:33 5v5. The “matchup centre” they acquired, played one shift against Aho’s line, and from there on out it was McDavid playing against Aho. What was the point of getting Dickinson if you’re not even gonna use him??
