The Edmonton Oilers goaltending controversy? What controversy? 9 ... (Edmonton Journal)

The Edmonton Oilers, on their 3rd road game in 4 nights, grinded out a 3-2 victory in Calgary on Saturday night. Advertisement 2. Story continues below.

The Edmonton-born Fuhr has just turned 19 in 1981 when he played his first season as an Oiler. Whereas Jack Campbell and Stuart Skinner (as stated) are truly just getting started on their NHL journey together. I still see and hear a lot of people being super-critical over the defensive play of Evan Bouchard. A guy with enough NHL reps to be useful but also a guy who can spent a half-dozen games in the press box without eroding his progress. If we read between the lines of the disallowed goal by Evander Kane on Thursday night, it sure smells of a “reputational call.” If so, that is a dark-ages phenomena the NHL needs to get out of its game: An official’s opinion of a player clouding their judgement. The Canadian dollar is also expected to sag against the U.S. Personally, I think this club would be better in the long run if the 4th line did play more. The biggest Oilers boosters would admit the club is missing a certain element on their back end: A RHS, pure shut-down defenceman. If these two teams meet in the playoffs again this Spring (and who is hoping that does not happen) Markstrom’s confidence has to be a concern. The Edmonton Oilers are officially inside Jacob Markstrom’s head. But it would not have turned out so well had a young, Edmonton-born goaltender not played one of the biggest and best games of his young NHL career. The Edmonton Oilers goaltending controversy?

He also threw in a between-the-legs pass that demonstrates his new-found confidence. [October 30, 2022] It was shifts like this I saw last year that made him the clear-cut #1 for me. Fidèle à ses habitudes, le pilote en chef des Flames a répondu candidement à une question «logique» d’un journaliste. La rencontre s’est conclue au compte de 3 à 2 en faveur de Connor McDavid et sa bande, qui ont du même coup récolté un quatrième gain consécutif.
