The Edmonton Oilers clearly have one gap in their lineup, so far this season, that is bigger and more worrisome than the others: Their Defence. However, I don’t beleive hat immediately after a loss like the one Saturday night is a particularly good time to assess such things. Emotions tend to cloud the view.
I get the out-bursts of “trade ’em all” and “how can he possibly play so-and-so with so-and-so”. We’re fans, passionate ones, and as such, we’re entitled & allowed. But after a good night’s sleep and an objective review of the game tapes, one is prepared to offer a more even-handed assessment of where the Oilers really are.
