The Oilers have 8 pairs of back-to-back games over the rest of the season. They also play Boston twice, Vegas twice, and Colorado three times. It's definitely going to be a challenging stretch drive.

Hearing a lot of chatter that Holland is really pushing to get Marc-Andre Fleury.

With the schedule congestion the rest of the way, Oil are going to have to run more of a platoon system, regardless of who the other guy is ...... Pickard, Fleury, or even Campbell. Can't burn out Stuart before the big dance.

Can't see them bringing in any more salary on a goalie though.

From where? Goaltending is the least of my concerns going forward. Skinner has been the best goalie in the league since we changed coaches. We actually have 4 goalies in the organization playing well right now whereas at the beginning of the season we had none.

I have actually seen a few people talking about getting Fleury as well, I could see them wanting to get a nice veteran presence as backup but I wouldn't be worrying about it unless we got away with highway robbery and it was Campbell for Fleury straight up.

You want Fleury because he's a veteran but also because he's a great teammate. You don't want a guy who's going to be a distraction or put the wrong kind of pressure on Skinner

Streak finally over. Oil played a good game, Hill was ridiculous. So close to the record....

we’ll make Messier proud and meet each other in the finals

We would then use those assets for upgrades elsewhere
