After another devastating loss in Edmonton yesterday it makes you question how long GM Schmuck will let it continue before making some drastic changes to the Edmonton line-up. The Oilers are 2-4-1 in their first 7 games. Their only postitive notes being their home attendence with the Skyreach center selling out more then not and their tremedours power play (33.3% 3rd in the league). The negatives however; over 4.00 goals against per game (4th last), lack of defense and big name players not living up to their name:
Nikolai Khabibulin Rated 82In 7 games played has a terrible .867 save% and 3.76 GAAJason AllisonRated 85In 7 games played has a -4 rating and only 2 ptsDarcy TuckerRated 79In 7 games played has a -2 rating and only 2 ptsIt's been rumoured that some big trades are in the works involving the players listed above; and after how bad the Oilers start has been compared to how good it was expected to be I don't think anyone is surprsied.
