Right now, with ekholm, a 5.
I’m not as pessimistic. They were a 5 just before Ekholm IMHO. However their play does have a range so some days yes… they are a 5 but tighten up and they are a 7-8. They just need consistency.

Skinner just got his first NHL shut out and they’re playing soup. Better get 7 or 8 goals to collect the 2 points.

Great to see Campbell get the shutout, and great timing too just like Skinny's.

Man is this team ever fun to watch, and firing on all cylinders too.

What a GREAT time to be an Oilers fan!!

Got 6 but would have only needed 1, soupy came through bug time, love it, great timing.

The boy's to a man played solid last night, a very good team win, still a few lousy give aways in our own end but soupy was there to bail them out. They are really getting things rolling at the right time of the year.

Well my daughter threw my hat over the glass for Draisaitl’s shorthanded, hat trick, 50th goal of the season. Was well worth it. And man it seemed like hats rained on the ice forever.

Third time Leon hits the 50 goal mark. Not bad for a pass-first guy.

Dri just gearing up for beast mode coming up to the playoffs. Once again will be a difference maker, even more so on 2 legs this year. As always will show why he is one of the best bargains in the league and have 31 GM's green with envy.
Sure hope Kane performs like he did in last years playoffs as well. Watching McD, Dri, Nuge, Kane and Hyman firing on all cylinders will be something to watch.
