I know +/- is a flawed stat, but McDavid is only +5 on the season. Draisaitl is +3. Auston Matthews' goal and point production is down this season, but he is currently sitting at +18. I guess my point is for as much ice time that McDavid and Draisaitl get, you'd want to see a higher +/- number.

/To be clear, the biggest issue with the Oilers has been management and coaching.

McDavid now down to +3 after a solid -2 on the night (did have 1 PP assist).

26:09 TOI by the way.

Here's the Makar OT winner (after Hyman just missed has hat trick for the win).

Evander Kane has missed two months of hockey and still sits 5th as far as points are concerned amongst Oilers forwards.

The thing is, when Kane does return (reports are he's getting close), the Oilers will likely have to play with a diminished roster as they are right up against the cap.

This is probably the ref's fault too.

I think they broke Yamamoto's arm in order to be cap compliant to put Kane in the lineup...
