Nik, did the Oilers blow a 2 goal third period lead at home by giving up three unanswered including the winner with 1:04 to go?

Yes they did, other Nik. Yes they did.

There was some talk the other day about how everyone bought into the media pre-season predictions for the Oilers (including myself) and how they likely aren't actually this bad, but this was their line-up for last nights game:

Maroon-McDavid-Caggiula
Lucic-Draistaitl-Cammalleri
Khaira-Strome-Slepyshev
Puljujarvi-Letestu-Kassian

They're missing RNH, but still that's dreadful. I honestly don't understand what all the hype was about. That has to be one of the worst collection of wingers in the entire league.

Not that this makes a big difference but I think the hype had to do with seeing Draisaitl as a winger, Maroon as being able to build on what he did last year and the idea that Puljujarvi might live up to his pedigree.

He took a slapshot to the head in their last game. Dropped to the ice and took awhile to get back up. Didn't go through concussion protocol:

Honestly, I'm just loving this season so much.

Haha literally a year + 2 days ago they traded a top prospect for him.
 
Pretty nice to see the Sabres absolutely stuffing* the Bruins right now.

* it?s 4-1 with 5 min to go. The Bruins have all the shots and none of the goals.

Would be a shame if they lost home-ice advantage in the playoffs because of this.
