@@user-jv5vb6hs6f You realize not all athletes are like Lebron James and just in it for $$ $. Some athletes believe in loyalty and working through adversity to achieve their goals. Many players in the NHL have taken pay cuts to keep or get players on their team they want to play with or have taken cuts to stay on their current team. Something I doubt you’ll see as often if ever in the NBA, MLB or I doubt even in the NFL.

Not just McDavid the entire team has woken up. Bouchard is on a 13 game point streak Leon is looking pissy again which is good. The PK and PP numbers have improved big there teams back checking is great there overall defence is good now like someone flicked a switch. I don’t know how long this win streak will last but I’m kinda hoping they can make it 10 the record for the team is 9 in a row. Such a rollercoaster of a team.

Another great video❤ keep up the awesome work

The addition of one of the most offensive defence men ever to play the game to the coaching staff (Coffey) has done wonders to the back end. The defence are no longer standing on their own goal line trying to make hail mary two line passes on breakouts. They are now moving their feet and driving plays out of their own end utilizing team speed before teams can set up and defend. Woodcroft had them slowing down the play and setting up and Knob has them attacking.

Oilers will make the playoffs and will probably go far. They have learned how to turn things around and overcome. No one should count them out just yet.

The question is can they turn it around and getting to the final? I would say they will. I have a feeling that after McDavid were PISSED he wants to prove everyone wrong and i think he is gonna carry this team to the stanley cup

Something's been off with Draisaitl. I can't put my finger on it, but he has been playing like I do in beer league, which isn't good. Just seems off with the hands and general agility or something. Kinda been getting it back. Hopefully he's on his way back to 100% soon.

I agree. Obviously I can’t speak on your beer league performance, but somethings been off. I will say after watching the past two games, especially the Chicago game, his back checking and grit was fantastic, and I hope he keeps it up. It is however nice to have 5 almost 6 player who have a point per game or higher, helps get rid of some stress drai might have. Tampa will be a challenge next game and I’m looking forward to see what version of drai we will get. If we get his Chicago performance alongside solid play from the rest of the boys it’ll be 9Ws in a row.

The guy that does these videos is a straight DOG! Great content!!!

This video was very very well done!

Happy you finally understood that huge subtitles to start vids and more were becoming memes :P I know where you got the idea for your most recent change of format, and it's okay. You do good work, and getting inspired by the best hockey content creator for deeper dive vids was a great idea! Plus laying off with the Leafs, Tor in general, was also a good idea. Your takes were only viable for people in that whole bubble, one that looks like a cult sometimes... But from the outside, from anywhere else in the world, no, just no. Like saying Dubas was a Genius and other "out there" stuff.

Has anyone noticed that the Driastail line is dominant but the puck just won't go in, when that changes, and it will, this team is going to be a nightmare for the rest of the league.

Love the vid. But I’m a bit confused about the edited scoreboard for the thumbnail? It’s from a different game.

It’s almost like coaching was a part of the equation. I’d been criticizing Woody and the (his) gang for over a year. No joke.

:42 that headline is just a taste of how dramatic these Canadian markets are. You don’t go from potential rebuild to contender in a matter of weeks. Especially this early in the season. Insanity

Great vid!

Not to mention that Hyman Bouchard Nugent Hopkins and eckholm are all playing like they could run their own team. It’s crazy how much a defensive structure can boost confidence and make your team turn on a dime.

Scoring off the rush works in the regular season, gets a lot tougher in the playoffs, but it's good to see Skinner & the D tighten up. There were a lot of fans criticizing the coaching change, but the results are starting to show. Nice to see them turning it around.

As an oilers fan I love how everyone’s pitching in here, even guys like Ryan foegole and gagner are stepping up

I always had faith in the oilers. They were gonna turn it around. Everyone doubting them shows a reflection of their mentality just because the present sucks doesn't mean you can't dictate the future its all about willpower!

There are 3 kinds of people. People who knew it was a matter of time untill Oilers were all the talk again. People who know notjing about hockey. And people who are still butthurt after years of their teams getting embarassed and were in denial.

Can we talk about how underrated the 4th line and their PK is? #2 in PK? And nobody is talking about it.

Dude your videos are amazing. Should be a video coach.

I'm die hard Av's but I knew there was no chance the Oil were going to slump for more than a few weeks. Way too talented.

1st🔥remember the barkov video I told you to make about his two play don’t forget please

”Kane can do his damage” yeah bro just went for textbook boarding

Yooo 95% PK and being ranked 2nd in 7 games is wild though 😭😭

He had a lower body injury at the start of the season. A player that relies on his insane skating ability is neutralized until that heals 100%. It was absurd for people to think he would not be the same player as last year once he healed to 100%

What ive learned as a hockey fan, its gameplay around New Years that i make observation not gameplay in November. Its all momentum.

whats the name of the background music?

Coming in hot..GO OILERS! Great breakdown video!

"he gave everyone a head start, just to make it fair" this is the truth...

Replaying the same clips over and over is a good way to make your point no discount to the skill time will only tell

If Connor McDavid’s play is infectious to his teammates, Connor Brown must have the best immune system of all time

All Elete hockey players go through a stump throughout their hockey careers but all come out of that incantation over them victoriously like now McDavid being 5th over all with pts from 132th first 15 games.

Didn't realize Dennis Reynolds was the Oilers new coach!!!

insane on this

The box +1 is great when you're playing a possession type team, but the Oilers are leaving 1-2 players open from the point consistently, every game. They've fine tuned the messy d-zone coverage that got them into the hole they're in, but they aren't adjusting to teams that player perimeter. Once that gets exposed, it's trouble. They will need a plan for when this happens (likely mid-Jan).

To be fair, what is next season going to look like?

To be real, though, he was still over a PPG in his "slump". Him playing better is huge but so is the bottom 6 scoring and the PK being almost 100"

I know you mentioned the defensive side, but Edmontons PK deserves a LOT of credit. In the last 8 games, Edmonton has taken 26 penalties, killing off 25 of them (96%). One of Jay and Dave’s biggest criticism was that their Pk sucked, so Mark Stuart (who’s running the Pk now) has found something and it’s working
