Doing what he does best...not helping us win games/helping us draft high.

Continuing on with the break it down series. The others can be found at the following location.

Nothing has changed. Same group as last year. Except I have more faith that Dubnyk can do it, and more faith that Kreuger will bench that shitty one.

Yeah, and people don't like to see fighting anymore right...

Yeah, and people don’t like to see fighting anymore right…

Continuing on with my series of posts that break down the Oiler’s different areas, today we look at the defense.

This will be the problem area for your 2012/13 Edmonton Oilers folks (actually, just 2013 Edmonton Oilers, but still). We might see some issues with the goaltending (but that’s for another post), but really I think any issues the Oilers have not only this year but going forward sit on this group.

Big year coming?

Big year coming?


Well shit…I suppose I should get this done and out there.

Hope for lots of these this year...


Continuing on with my series of Break it Down posts. The others can be found in the following location.

Next up, special teams.

The Oilers last year had a terrible powerplay (27th) and was actually worse (!) on the penalty kill (29th).

We have lots of talent that can play on the PP. Lots. And now that Hemsky is part robot, he won’t miss half the season (it helps that Regehr has fucked off to the other conference too).
