@NHL_Watcher Oilers actually have a very good defensive core. Our “defensive problems” in the past were system related plus the forwards not buying in defensively as much. Babcock COULD be the solution to that problem. We will see.
You know what, screw it. I’m all in on Babcock. I don’t care about the past. I don’t care about his old tendencies.
This guy was the best option to hire given the available coaches. His resume speaks for itself. And it seems he had a very detailed convo with the core.
@puckempire You do know the cap has gone up and will continue to go up a great deal right? This is a very very fair deal for a solid defensive third line center in his prime. It’s actually somewhat of a bargain I expected 5+ million in today’s market. L ragebait
@MikeBartner Besides your woke agendas and new-gen approach to the sport. What’s wrong with Babcock? Is he a dick? Yup. Does he push boundaries? Yup. Is he a smart hockey coach with a resume to back it up? Yep.
@TheStanchion Yall HAD hopes and dreams. About Petey being a superstar. Hughes sticking around. Playoff hopes
You think it was all that long ago? Hughes left this year
Your prospect pool is not good for a team thats in a rebuilding phase. Your hopes and dreams are gonna be dead for awhile
McDavid for MVP. What does MVP stand for? Most Valuable Player.
The Oilers have ZERO wins when McDavid doesn’t record a point.
He leads the league in points.
He has a 40 point gap from the second highest player on the Oilers.
Is this not the DEFINITION of MVP?
